Cabrinha Contra 2021 1 Strut Kite
IN A NUTSHELL...
The new one strut Cabrinha Contra takes the light wind performance of the original Contra and makes it even easier to fly in lighter winds by reducing the weight. These one strut freeride light wind kites will help get you out on a smaller kite in lighter winds and are the ideal choice for hydrofoiling.

DESIGN PROFILE
1 strut, Hybrid design, Low drag wing tips, Draft forward profiles.
This season we’ve expanded the Contra’s range to bring its legendary efficiency deep into the foil boarding realm. The single strut version of the Contra is built on its platform of efficiency and range, while adding featherweight control. With its single strut, this kite is lighter and more nimble, allowing the use of much smaller sizes to maximize foilboarding’s true potential.
The Contra 1 strut’s superior drift characteristics allow for low angles of attack while on foil, and the rear line tension increases steering impulse even when depowered.
This dynamic kite design shift will put an optimized Contra light wind kite in your hands whether you ride a twin tip, surfboard, or a foil board.
