Cabrinha Skillit All Around Surfboard 2026


Description

The Cabrinha Skillit is back for 2026, and it has earned its return the only way that really matters - through real sessions in real conditions. Inspired by the original Skillit's heritage, this modern rework keeps the familiar all-round feel while pushing performance forward with updated shaping and construction. Built for the waves most kitesurfers actually ride - small to mid-size surf with changing wind and imperfect sections - the Skillit prioritizes speed, flow, and making the most of every section.

The outline and rocker are tuned to be forgiving and predictable, letting you carry speed through turns, link sections, and stay composed when conditions aren't textbook. The new DSV Double-in-Single Concave bottom design smooths out chop, increases responsiveness, and maintains control under pressure - making this board as capable as it is confidence-inspiring. Whether you're threading waves in onshore conditions or sending freestyle tricks in small surf, the Skillit handles it all.


Key Features

  • DSV Double-in-Single Concave Bottom: Cabrinha's new DSV bottom directs water flow efficiently beneath the board, delivering smoother performance through chop, greater responsiveness in turns, and improved control under pressure.
  • Medium Rocker Profile: A balanced medium rocker line provides speed, control, and versatility while supporting smooth rail-to-rail transitions and reliable control through bottom turns.
  • Slightly Forward Wide Point: The outline is designed for forgiveness and predictability, helping you carry speed and link sections in imperfect conditions.
  • Apex Pro Carbon Construction: The Apex Pro Carbon surf layup delivers an exceptionally lightweight board with outstanding response and feel underfoot.
  • Thruster Fin Setup: The 3-fin thruster configuration provides a balanced combination of drive, control, and maneuverability suited to all-round kitesurfing.
  • True All-Round Design: Built for everyday kitesurfing conditions - small to mid-size waves, changing winds, and imperfect sections - the Skillit performs reliably across a wide range of sessions.
  • Modern Heritage Shape: A nod to the original Skillit design, reworked with contemporary shaping techniques for performance that respects the past while clearly moving forward.
  • Comfortable Immediately, Rewarding as You Push: Feels accessible and composed from the first session, yet responds and rewards as your commitment and skill level increase.

Size Options & Which to Choose

  • 5'3" (20.3L / 2.5kg): The smaller, lighter option at 18 3/16" wide and 1 15/16" thick. Best for lighter riders or those who prefer a more nimble, snappy feel in smaller surf and freestyle sessions where quick response is a priority.
  • 5'6" (23L / 2.7kg): The larger option at 18 3/4" wide and 2 1/16" thick. Offers slightly more volume and float for added stability and drive - ideal for heavier riders or those looking for a more forgiving ride across a wider range of conditions.

FAQ

What skill level is the Skillit designed for?

The Skillit is designed as a true all-round board, making it accessible to intermediate riders while still rewarding advanced kitesurfers who push it harder. Its forgiving outline and medium rocker make it easy to ride immediately, but the Apex Pro Carbon construction and DSV bottom respond well to committed turns and aggressive riding.

What is the DSV Double-in-Single Concave bottom?

DSV stands for Double-in-Single V - a concave bottom shape that uses strategically positioned and deepened channels to direct water flow under the board. The result is a smoother feel through chop, more responsiveness in turns, and better control when you're loading pressure into the fins. Cabrinha's execution for 2026 is shared across their surfboard range and represents a meaningful performance upgrade.

Which size should I choose - 5'3" or 5'6"?

If you're a lighter rider or prefer a snappier, more responsive feel for freestyle and smaller surf, the 5'3" is the better fit. If you're heavier or want more stability, float, and drive across a wider range of conditions, the 5'6" is the right choice. When in doubt, consider your weight and the typical wave size you ride most.

Is the Skillit good for onshore and sideshore conditions?

Yes - the Skillit is explicitly built for the everyday conditions most kitesurfers encounter, including onshore and sideshore waves with changing wind. Its forgiving shape and medium rocker help you stay composed and carry speed even in imperfect, choppy conditions.

Does the Skillit come with fins and a bag?

Yes. Every Skillit comes complete with RTM premium fins, a full EVA deck pad, and a surfboard bag - so you're ready to ride straight out of the box.

Can the Skillit be used for freestyle kitesurfing tricks?

Absolutely. While the Skillit is primarily designed as a wave riding all-rounder, its lightweight carbon construction and balanced thruster setup make it responsive enough for aerial freestyle. Cabrinha rider Theo specifically notes using it for freestyle tricks, calling it his go-to board for 90% of his sessions.
