Well of course Bryan, Those kites are a design over two years old! The 2008 cabrinha XBows are completely different kites, they're awesome! very light bar pressure, responsive, turns real good and jumps to the moon plus upwind like crazy! You can demo mine any time, it is many generations beyond what you were used to riding on the old CB's

Lots of good kites coming out, it seems.
I think what is impressing me the most of some of the new kites is the low end of the 9m/10m sizes. In addition to a few of the kites mentioned, the Ocean Rodeo Rise also seems to have great low end, as well as a few others I have tried. The 9m Waroo is really blowing my mind, though  At my size (160), it strikes me as almost unbelievable that I could rig just about any kite size yesterday in the high teens (9 m to 16m kite) and be totally powered up on a medium sized twin tip, 130 by 40. That was simply impossible 3 years ago. The boards aren't hurting either, as some of the 130 by 40 or so size boards get up on plane and do just about everything light years better than just a few years ago as well. It's great to benefit from some of the gear getting so good.
