Cabrinha Bump
Prone foiling has been a part of the hydrofoil riding scene ever since modern day hydrofoils came into play. In the beginning, it posed a great challenge to figure out how to ride and foil properly. However, the barriers have been broken down and now, with the right equipment and board, anyone can enjoy the world of prone foiling. The...
Cabrinha Code
The evolution of the Code board is a shining example of how things improve with time, like a fine wine. As the foils and wings advance, the Code has undergone refinements to cater to the intricacies of this incredible sport. They have increased the volume flow across the entire range, introduced a recessed deck, and adjusted the buoyancy distribution. This...
Cabrinha Link
As passionate wingfoilers, their screens are constantly graced with images of people charging waves or taking to the skies. While these images may seem out of reach for most, with the right equipment, anything is possible. The barrier of entry into sinker board riding has been broken with a wide range of sizes and adaptive strap mounting options. The Link...
Cabrinha Mantis
The ‘04’ Cabrinha collection release brings the 4th generation of the Mantis. Cabrinha promises that the “04 Mantis marks the biggest evolutionary step for this iconic wing”. With so many prominent design and construction improvements, this seems like a pretty fair statement! The predecessor to the ‘04’ mantis set a very high benchmark. It was a versatile wing comfortable with...
Cabrinha Swift
The recent downwind foiling hype has kept the pace of foiling equipment development at an all-time high and has had a huge impact on board designs. Facebook groups have been rife with posts about the secondary use case (or primary, depending on your circumstance!) of downwind boards being light wind-winging boards. Brands have managed to persuade many riders into justifying...
Cabrinha Vision
With the sport evolving at such an incredible rate, they need a wing that matches this evolution and takes them into the next generation of Wing Foiling. Known for its incredible range and light feel, the Vision is back in 04. Increased low-end power in the smaller sizes, refined airflow across the board, and the lightest weight light wind wings...
Cabrinha Fusion H-Series MKII
The Cabrinha H-SERIES is back with an updated design and promises an even more efficient and high-performance package than before. With Cabrinha’s foil offering currently being relatively small, the H-SERIES MKII will hold the flag as their higher aspect design for all foiling disciplines. If it is anything like its predecessor, we know it will deliver both the speed and...
Cabrinha Mantis Apex
The Cabrinha Mantis Apex is the first high-performance alternate construction methodology wing to hit the market from the brand. Whilst the Apex shares part of its name with the Mantis, and the brand describes it as an evolution from the original Mantis, it is a noticeably different beast! It does intend to meet the exact design requirements of the Mantis...
Cabrinha Mantis V3
The Mantis is the wing most synonymous with Cabrinha, and the previous two versions have acquired many loyal fans over the years. It has always been an easy to use wing that aims to provide high levels of accessible performance for all disciplines. Having spent a good amount of time on the second version, I was looking forward to seeing...
Cabrinha Vision
As the sport of winging develops, the disciplines are becoming more clearly defined, and there is a divergence in terms of approach between the big players in the industry. Some are choosing to expand and diverge their product offerings to try and tailor each wing and optimise certain characteristics. Others, including Cabrinha, are keeping their range smaller (for now at...
Cabrinha Code
On test this issue was the 78L, 5’0 Code. Cabrinha has six sizes available, ranging from 58L to 118L, allowing a good range of choice for all sizes & styles of riders. This lightweight board has stayed at the top of the wingfoiling game & its super-fast progression. Boasting a bamboo composite construction, carbon stringer, concave deck, lightweight EPS core,...
Cabrinha Crosswing X3
The X3 is Cabrinha’s 3rd version of the Crosswing and it has come with a ton of improvements. The most obvious is the eye-catching double strut, something that is unique in the wing industry. The Crosswing X3 is designed to be a high-performance do-it-all wing. The R&D team has increased the leading edge diameter to produce a stiffer frame overall....

Fresh from competing in Cape Verde, she's riding the wave of excitement while balancing life's demands. Find out more in this exclusive interview with Jen Tyler!
Issue 20
The Duck Gybe is a CK favourite because it is functional and looks impressive! It involves releasing the front hand of the wing and swapping hands while carving through a gybe. The timing and action of the duck gybe are crucial for success, and it is essential to keep the wing low and maintain control while manoeuvring. Practising the duck gybe in light wind and on dry land can help improve skills before attempting it on the water. Ready? Let's do it!

If you’ve been following this Wing Foil series, you’ve likely been through the heel-to-toe foot switch. Now, ladies and Gentlemen, it’s time for the other one! The Toe to Heel.

Whether after a gybe or tack, you’ll have the option of riding heelside in both directions.

An early start combined with prime conditions allowed wing and prone disciplines to compete, with the UK’s best shredders bringing their world-class skills to the bay. It truly was an outstanding day!
Issue 18
In this issue, Christian and Karine guide us through your first attempt at tacking. If you're unsure what a tack is, think of it as changing direction by steering into and through the wind. It's the opposite of a gybe. Tacking has several advantages over gybing: if you're trying to make progress upwind, you won't lose the distance you've gained when you turn. In fact, a successful tack can even gain you more ground. This makes it perfect for situations where the wind is onshore, and you want to move away from the beach. Similarly, if you've been out and the wind dies down, and you want to sail back upwind, tacking allows you to maintain your progress. Find out here how to master that Woffing Tack!
