Cabrinha gear is built to take a beating, but kitesurfing, winging and foiling are tough sports. Salt, sand, UV, repeated loading, travel wear, and the occasional “whoops” moment all add up. Sooner or later, almost every rider ends up searching for Cabrinha spares to keep their setup safe, tuned and session-ready.
At Kite Wing & Foil, we stock a strong range of genuine Cabrinha spare parts and, more importantly, we make the process of finding the right part easy. If you’re not sure what you need (or you can’t see it listed), we offer a concierge spare-part search service, send us your model/year and a quick photo, and we’ll help identify and locate the exact spare for you.
This guide breaks down the most searched Cabrinha replacement parts, explains why riders search for them so often, and links you directly to the right collections and products on Kite Wing & Foil.
Why Cabrinha Spares Are So Popular (and Why That’s a Good Thing)
When riders Google “Cabrinha spare parts”, they’re usually in one of three situations:
- They’ve found a wear item (depower rope, trim line, centre lines) before it becomes a failure.
- They’ve got an air issue (valves or bladders) and want to fix it immediately.
- They feel something is “off” (bridles stretched, tuning changed) and want that crisp Cabrinha feel back.
The good news is that most “session-ending” problems are solved quickly with the correct spare, as long as you don’t waste time guessing or ordering the wrong generation.

The Most Searched Cabrinha Spares (and Why Riders Need Them)
1) Quick Release / Chicken Loop Systems
If there’s one component riders replace without hesitation, it’s the quick release. It’s safety-critical and it’s a moving mechanism that lives in sand, salt and spray. Over time you might notice it feels gritty, slow to reset, or doesn’t operate as cleanly as it should. That’s your cue to replace it, before you need it in an emergency.

2) Depower Line & Trim Systems
The depower rope and trim system are among the highest-wear items on any control bar. Every sheet in/out runs line through hardware under load, so it’s normal for the rope to fuzz, stiffen, or feel inconsistent. Riders often describe this as “my bar feels rough” or “my trim slips”.
If you want that smooth, confidence-inspiring bar feel back, replacing the trim parts is one of the best value maintenance jobs you can do.

3) Valves (Leaks, Lift-Off Delays, and “Why Won’t This Hold Air?”)
Valve issues are one of the most common “surprise failures” because everything looks fine… until it doesn’t. Heat cycles, sand contamination, and repeated bending can weaken seals and bonds, causing slow leaks that get worse session by session. If you’re topping up more often than usual or your kite feels softer mid-ride, a valve is a prime suspect.

4) Leading Edge & Strut Bladders
Bladder replacements are a classic high-intent search: when a bladder fails, you want a fix now. Leaks can come from impact, pinching during packing, abrasion against internal seams, or age-related material fatigue. The key is matching the correct bladder to your model, year and size.

5) Bridles (Keeping Your Kite Feeling Like a Cabrinha)
If your kite suddenly feels different, turning unevenly, sitting deeper in the window, backstalling, or feeling “mushy”, bridles are often the culprit. Even small changes in bridle length from stretch or wear can change how the kite flies. Replacing bridles is one of the quickest ways to bring back crisp steering and predictable power delivery.

What Makes Kite Wing & Foil Special
Concierge Spare-Part Search Service (We Find It For You)

- Send us your Cabrinha model, year (if known), and a photo of the part you need.
- We’ll help confirm the correct replacement and point you to the right item.
- If it’s not listed online, we’ll help source it for you.
This is ideal for riders who want a quick, confident fix, and it’s especially valuable when you’re repairing gear before a trip, a windy weekend, or a competition.

Custom Bladder Sourcing with Dr Tuba
Bladder failure is one of the most frustrating breakdowns in kitesurfing, and it’s often the hardest spare part to find, especially for older or discontinued Cabrinha models. That’s why Kite Wing & Foil works directly with Dr Tuba, the world’s leading custom kite bladder manufacturer.
If your Cabrinha bladder is no longer available from the factory, we can arrange a custom-manufactured replacement bladder from Dr Tuba, built specifically for your kite model and size. These bladders are known for their durability, precision fit, and reliability, often outperforming the original factory bladder.
Simply send us your kite model, year, size and a photo of the damaged bladder (if available), and we’ll take care of the rest. It’s the fastest way to save a kite that might otherwise be written off.
This service is part of our concierge spare-part search, meaning you don’t need to worry about part numbers, compatibility, or discontinued stock. We handle the sourcing so you can focus on riding.
