First time kite foiling on Cabrinha XBreed/Lift and Drifter 13

[@duprazsnow9057]

Nice , how do you like the setup since? Also I am curious where is the spot beach? thanks

[@stevedale887]

I think drifters are pretty good for foiling, I usually use 12 or 10. Also recently tried a cloud which was neat, very fast. Still use the same foil, only one I’ve ever tried.

@@stevedale887 hey Steve did you use the cloud with cabrinha bar? I liked the way you removed the chicken loop ! Is that safe?

[@stevedale887]

@@jmmolinari Hi yes Ive used clouds with a cabrinha bar no problem. People have told me the CCS bar better because it is light but i have never tried it. I'm selling my clouds and going with one struts instead, the relaunch on clouds is tough sometimes. I was using a rope slider with a ring and the fireball setup, but with the fireball removed. Now I use the modular bar with rope slider attachment.

Since then I bought a couple moses foils, a 590 and a 633, which are a lot more expensive, and a bit more specialized, the cabrinha seems to have a nice compromise between speed, stability, and maneuverability. In some ways I prefer it, but the carbon mast of the moses is so nice and light I dont use the cabrinah much anymore. The xbreed is a nice board if you want to use it for both foiling and surfing, but for an exclusive foil board its probably better to go a bit shorter and wider.

@@stevedale887 great txs, please tell me if you bueno contra 1 strut how well they perform, looking to purchase a 9m...

[@jaesonbang5710]

have you tried to without the foil?

[@stevedale887]

Yes I typically go with a directional surfboard. I've only tried this particular board without the foil maybe once or twice. I found I prefer the SQuad, maybe a bit better upwind and less darty.
