Description
Performance
Freestyle / Freestyle:
If you want to ride hard and fast with ultimate
performance, the Cabrinha Caliber 2012 is calling your name.
The 3D bottom shape delivers
unbelievable edge control, while the lower rocker line
provides quick acceleration and speed.
Concaves placed at the tips with a flat centre
section provides a smooth ride and forgiving landings.
The 3D section of the
deck has been redesigned to increase tortional rigidity for
solid edging.
The tips are soft to give control in chop
and also feature a new corner radius to eliminate eye spray.
With the paulownia
wood core, the Cabrinha Caliber 2012 board has unparalleled
strength while staying lightweight. For trick riding and boosting,
there’s no comparison.
When it comes to serious freestyle and freeriding
the Caliber steps up to the plate. With its lower rocker line
the Caliber planes quickly and is able to fly upwind. A huge
asset when riding in less than favorable wind conditions as
well as for staying in the defined competition area. The Caliber’s
outline and flex pattern give the board incredible pop whether
you are riding unhooked or hooked in.
The new Caliber 2012 has extended the quad
concave right through the center of the board to provide increased
grip, and to diffuse the impact on the landings.
The Caliber is constructed with a Paulownia
wood core, ABS side walls and carbon stringers, tip to tail.
We’ve added composite foot patches for a more direct
power transmission to the rail.
The
Cabrinha Caliber is a Freestyle / Freeride model with
excellent
speed and tracking abilities. The Cabrinha Caliber
also features a wider tipped outline and has a lower rocker
line than
the
Cabrinha Custom,
which makes it quick to plane and get you through the
light spots.
The Cabrinha Caliber takes full advantage
of its 3D bottom shape to deliver a high level of edge
control.
The Cabrinha Caliber also
features a flat center section for a smoother ride and easy
landings.
The 3D X deck provides torsional rigidity
to keep the tips from washing out when edging hard. The
Cabrinha Caliber is
built with a Wood Core, which delivers unparalleled
strength while staying lightweight. If you like to ride
hard and
fast and want the ultimate performance for Freestyle
or Freeriding,
the Cabrinha Caliber is the board for you.
The all new Cabrinha Caliber 2012 kiteboard
breaks away from the pack with an entirely new approach to
bottom design. The Cabrinha Caliber 2012 sports a quad concave
bottom and a new outline to deliver the ultimate combination
of speed and drive.
The 2012 Cabrinha Caliber also expands on
the 3D bottom concept Cabrinha started two years ago. The
quad concave channels have been increased in definition throughout
the tips for a more aggressive bite.
Adding to the improved bottom shape is the
reduction of the concaves through the centre of the board.
This is especially helpful when landing big tricks slightly
off axis. The forgiving centre section gives the rider a stable,
less catchy landing platform while the concave tips provide
all of the bite needed. The Cabrinha Caliber 2012 has also
moved to a wood core for added durability and a smoother ride.
The new improved construction now implements
hard glass to increase strength and deliver a better flex
pattern.
The PVC core is precision milled and all materials
are strategically placed to deliver the optimum weight, flex
and rebound.
Paulownia Wood Core:
Vertically laminated Paulownia stringers produce a high compression
/ lightweight core. Paulownia has one of the highest strength
to weight ratios of all wood species. The result is simple.
Bullet proof, with a smooth consistent flex pattern.
Average density: 310kg/m3
Quadcave:
The very latest in 3D bottom shaping with
the concave and step bleeding through the perimeters of the
board to increase tracking and create and allow true finless
performance. The centre flat sections reduce the boards tendency
to stick on-off axis landings and eliminate spray in the eyes
by allowing the nose to rider higher.
Quadrax Fibreglass
Laminate:
A four axis weave of fibreglass that is extremely strong and
light resulting in a very lively feel and response.
3D X Deck: The 3D X deck provides torsional
rigidity to keep the tips from washing out when edging
hard.
Top and Bottom Sheet:
A lightweight and tough material.
UV and scratch resistance properties make it perfect for Kiteboard
production.
ABS Rails:
The ABS sidewall is laminated
to the core during the lay-up process. It's designed to increase
the strength while ensuring a smooth, durable and consistent
ride.
Core Profile:
All of Cabrinha's core are produced with CNC milling. This
means that every core is true to their design. Flex, profile
and manufacturing consistency are all exact every time.
Flex Pattern (True
Twin Flex):
A symetric pattern provides and identical flex, forward or
switch, ideal for all types of riding conditions.
Mounting System (Stainless
Steel Inserts):
Based on the industry standard 6 inch (15.24cm) pattern. Cabrinha's
stainless steel inserts are custom made to eliminate pull
out and spinning. Cabrinha's inserts are all 1/4-20 thread
and sized to properly fit the core profiles. They are inserted
from the bottom of the core, glued and are in for good.
Arrangement / Layup (Laminate):
Each board has its own unique layup. Cabrinha have tested
many different laminates to produce the best combination of
strength and weight. The Cores are profiled to dial in the
specific flex for a design. Then the laminate is applied to
support the flex and increase strength.
