Apex noun: the highest point or most successful part of something.
What can you do to an already incredible kite. You give it the Apex treatment.
With a lighter feel and even more playful handling, the Moto X Apex version is a true testament to the Apex Series of kites.
The use of Ultra HT for the main airframe aids in stability, steering and also recovery due to the incredible bias elongation controls. Combine this with the use of the Aero spliced bridle line, and new lighter weight bladders, you have the lightest 3 strut kite in the Cabrinha range to date.

KEY FEATURES
BI-DIRECTION PURE PROFILE PANELS
The smoothest and most 3d correct shape we've ever created allowing the smoothest transition between the segmented leading edge and curved canopy.
FORWARD DRIVE
The Moto’s unique profiles combined with the reduced coning of the arc shape allow the Moto to fly incredibly fast through the wind window.
UNRIVALED VERSATILITY
Excellent for freeride, surf, freestyle and foiling.
SIMPLICITY PERSONIFIED
The Moto’s light bar pressure & fast steering make it as easy to use as it gets.
NO PULLEY BRIDLE
Light, simple and responsive. No pulleys provides incredible feedback.
DIRECT STEERING
Bar input immediately translates into kite adjustment.
ULTRA HT
Developed exclusively for kite leading edges, this is a strong, stable, and exceptionally responsive material. Ultra HT reduces the weight of the leading edge and struts while boasting incredibly low elongation and response. A unique and proprietary coating process increases durability and performance unlike anything you have felt before.
FEATHERLITE BLADDERS
The all new Apex bladders are not only 22% lighter than standard bladders, they are also through controlled elongation, able to work in harmony with UltraHT to increase response and speed of turning of the kite.
NANO RIPSTOP CANOPY
Nano Ripstop is a 55 g/m2 material with a 3mm double rip stop pattern. This micro rip stop material in unison with a newly developed coating, has given us a 2X increase in the canopy’s tear strength. A smaller rip stop pattern increases the amount of “cells” in any given panel.
APEX BRIDLES
Cabrinha's new apex bridles are thinner and have lower elongation that optimises efficiency and steering. The reduced diameter lines increase airflow efficiency as airflow passes between the lines.
SPRINT 3.0
The Sprint 3.0 inflation system increases air flow from leading edge to the strut. The new straight and angled valves allow for no kinking of the inflation tube. It's secure fit design also allows for easy maintenance.
BULLET PROOF BUMPERS
These new Durable TPU bumpers are strong, lightweight and durable. They crossover protecting the canopy to LE sewing. A new manufacturing process helps with abrasion when the kite is resting on a hard surface.
EXPANDAPACK KITE BAG
An all NEW stylish expanding backpack allows for fast pack down and comfy transportation of your kite, pump and control system. Easily expands to carry multiple kites in one bag leading to more adventure and less faff!
