Drifter Apex

I flew this kite in a range of conditions now, including onwhore sessions that I usually try to avoid and flew the kite noticeable overpowered. Drift and relaunch stand out as highlights for me. The kite parked at the window edge, it holds a line on the wave without pulling and is quite forgiving if caught offguard. Turning is fast and direct. I additionally used is as a secondary for foiling, since it is quite light. Overall, great kite for the wave.

The figures Cabrinha publish for this kite, extracted from their own website. A starting point rather than a verdict — every rider who reviews this kite scores the same categories, and the shape above moves as they do.
