2025 Cabrinha MOTO X DESIGN WORKS Kiteboarding Kite

Design Works launches the next generation of Moto X.

Starting out with a goal to make the best Big Air Kite with Aluula materials, Pat Goodman quickly changed course and realized that with the use of Aluula, what we learnt on the Nitro and Moto X, as well as where the sport has gone, makes the attributes of a 3 strut kite more suitable than ever. This new Moto X has taken not only Big Air to a new level, but also recreational freeriding. Whether you want a kite to use in a larger wind range, want to jump higher than your friends, or compete on the world big air circuit, the new Design Works Moto X is the next generation kite to get you there.

Design Profile:

3 Strut, Moderate Sweep, High Aspect, Lean Profiles, Aluula Composites.

Key Features

Lightweight, ultra strong, extremely stable with incredible response. The aluula material epitomizes the Design Works ethos of using the highest performing materials to achieve best in class products.

ON DEMAND STEERING

Light and fast yet surprisingly easy to fly. Even if you're not a pro the benefits can be felt immediately out of the box. This kite will take your riding to all new levels.

3 STRUT PLATFORM

Aluula is inherently very stiff with less deformation compared to normal dacrons, it enabled the design team to decide on a 3 strut platform giving it a lighter weight and increased turning response.

DOUBLE TROUBLE

The kite to help unlock your first double (or triple!?) When style and performance is your game, tap into the Moto X DW to unlock new possibilities.

BIG AIR CERTIFIED

WIth a blank canvas and carte blanche design philosophy Pat Goodman's sole goal was to create Cabrinha's highest jumping kite ever created.

REFINED SIZING

An individual focus was made for every size in the range. From doubles in the smaller sizes through to exceptional big air & hang time performance in the 12m, get ready to smash personal bests whatever the wind.

Cabrinha tasked Pat with an initial challenge. To take our Big Air international team to all new levels and thus the Design Works project started. With a blank canvas ahead, Pat had carte blanche to choose what materials and what design to use, and the first Aluula 5 strut kites were created. Through months of testing, Pat wanted to explore a reduced strut option to see if it opened up more doors and opportunities. We weren’t disappointed. An early prototype took Stijn Mul to the sky during King of the Air, and since then development has been at a rapid pace in order to bring this product to the market.
