KEY FEATURES
FEATHERLITE
The ultra lightweight 1-strut design shaves weight off allowing for increased use in threshold winds.
MINIMALISTIC
Minimalistic - Through intensive research and development the Contra Aether comes with one rear line attachment option. Simply put, this is the best possible option straight out of the bag.
EFFORTLESS RELAUNCH
Even in the lightest of wind conditions the Contra 1S gives you the confidence to try tricks knowing any mishaps won’t mean a swim in.
DRIFT
Superior drift characteristics allow for low angles of attack while on the foil. Rear line tension is carried through even when depowered.
LIGHTWIND OPTIMISATION
Designed with the main focus to be ridden in the threshold winds where most kites can't perform.
AGILE AND NIMBLE
Single strut design allows the kite to twist and react like no other.

3D VIEW
HYBRID FRAME
The Hybrid Frame is the perfect fusion of materials. A combination of High Tenacity Dacron (HTD) & HTD Lite blends together giving the kite the support it needs, but with increased response.
HIGH TENACITY DACRON
Specifically designed for inflated kite structures. The construction of this material is very warp oriented using ultra high tenacity yarns with an increased thread count to combat elongation under high inflation pressures. Lower elongation makes for a more accurate kite/wing with a more efficient and accurate airfoil in flight.
HTD LITE
The next evolutionary jump in inflatable structures is HTD Lite. We took the superior benefits of the proven HTD material to which have superior elongation control and combined it with a superior reflex bias recovery and lighter weight construction to elevate the response characteristics and range of the kite.

Cabrinha, like other brands, has learned it's lesson the hard, hard way. There will be few surpluses and mega-closeout deals in 2023. They are running as lean as possible and only making a small percentage of product above pre-season orders from dealers. What that means to you is it will be hard to get the color you want in the size you want, when you want it. Plan accordingly or buy the 2022 deals still available.
