OVERVIEW
The Crossbow IDS (Intelligent Depower System) delivers in all areas of power and range of use that riders expect from a Cabrinha free-ride kite. Cabrinha implemented a Dynamic Arc progression, which reduces the fl atness of the arc as the kite sizes get smaller. The larger kites have the flattest arcs and highest aspect ratios for light-wind efficiency and a wider wind range. The smaller kites have a more conservative arc for control and handling in stronger winds. This unique design progression makes the Crossbow a chameleon when it comes to challenging wind conditions. Its fast flying, quick turning and wide wind range blow the doors wide open for high-performance riding in any type of discipline or conditions.
DESIGNER’S OPINION
“The Crossbow IDS has everything you need: a massive wind range, huge jumping and hang time, stability in gusty conditions and amazing upwind and downwind performance; but the new seven-strut design makes the kite ultra-stable and is great for both freestyle and unhooked wake-style riding.”
