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.
