IDS(Intelligent Depower System) which allows you to self land the kite safer than any other kite on the market! The Convert IDS kiteboarding kite features the new IDS system. IDS requires an IDS equipped bar and a kite that is designed for IDS. We feel that IDS is the most advanced safety system available today. The main advantage to IDS is being able to self land your kite with extreme ease and safety. Simply activate IDS just above the trim loop. The kite completely de-powers and slowly drifts to the edge of the wind window where the kite slowly hovers down to the water. The kite will land leading edge down in the water! No line tangles and no hard yanks! Now, simply wind the IDS line(red) onto the control bar and then continue winding all four lines towards the kite. The kite doesn't flop around on the water and it is super simple and safe to manage your lines in the water!

On-water Performance
The Convert kiteboarding kite meets the demand for a kiteboarding kite that can handle a wide range of conditions, kiteboarder styles and skill levels. It’s better suited to a wider range of skill levels over last year’s kite model. For the beginner it has easy handling , smooth power delivery and good amounts of depower. With no back stalling issues and great stability through gusts the Convert kiteboarding kite inspires confidence. For the advanced kiteboarder, this kite has big jumping and glide capability. The Convert kiteboarding kite pulls smoothly while unhooked and can easily satisfy intermediate freestyle maneuvers. The wind range is great also as Test Team member, Dan Steiner described, “This kite is very grunty for its size…great low-wind performance, I was powered on a 9 m when others were on 12s...great hang time and pop for airs. Super smooth!” The IDS bridle system also offers up the quickest and easiest relaunch of the test. Simply pull in the back line about six inches and the Convert is flying again. The biggest safety innovation so far this year is Cabrinha’s new Absolute Depower. Made possible by the IDS bridle system and in conjunction with the Powerdrive IDS control bar, this system lets the rider completely flag the kite by engaging a highly evolved mini fifth line. It’s the ultimate for anyone who needs to self land on the beach and wants the added safety of a five-line system with the simplicity and range of a four-line bridled kite.
Bottom Line
The Convert kiteboarding kite will not only help the novice kiteboarder learn the basics but will continue to provide performance for higher skill levels and expanded disciplines. The Cabrinha Convert kiteboarding kite out performs many of its competitors’ higher priced “performance” kites.
