It’s not what we’ve added…but what we’ve taken away.
The Switchblade 2 could just be the most versatile kite on the market today. Made famous for its performance and ease of use, the new Switchblade steps up to the plate once again with the addition of our Sprint™ single point rapid inflation system and our improved Override™ 2 security system. The Switchblade can not only boast about what’s been added but about what’s been taken away. Bar pressure. The Switchblade’s bar pressure is virtually non existent. Because the Switchblade comes complete with our Powerdrive 121 control system without pulleys, we’ve been able to eliminate most of the bar pressure while retaining all of the performance of a bow kite. This makes the Switchblade 2 the hands down favorite kite of our pro team when it comes to handle pass or kite loop combination tricks.
But don’t let the lack of bar pressure fool you. The Switchblade still maintains it’s depower on demand capabilities though the use of our new Override™ 2 security system. Override™’s depower on demand is as simple as it gets. Simply push the control bar into the Override™ mode and the kite will immediately depower and begin to drop from the sky. You can avoid many accidents before they happen by maintaining control of the power of your kite at all times.
Now with Override™ 2 this often imitated concept has gone one better. We’ve added a new user adjustable Override™ stopper unit. Unlike the competition, you, the rider can now choose the release load of the Override™ stopper unit. A new integrated tension ring can be adjusted for either a lighter or more positive release load depending on your skill level or riding preference.
While wake stylers and legions of the new school army will immediately appreciate the familiar feel of the Powerdrive 121 bar input and the way the kite carries speed throughout the turns, freeriders will now have a performance kite that is incredibly easy to use.
The Switchblade 2 comes standard with our Powerdrive 121 control system. This Override™ 2 equipped control system is a highly evolved pulley less bar with an impressive level of security and control. The design of the PD 121 sets a new benchmark in simplicity while providing the state of the art security functions essential to the safe operation of a bow kite.
The Switchblade 2 from Cabrinha. Whether you are pushing the limits of wake style / freestyle or freeriding, the Switchblade is hard core performance in a simple to use package.
