Cabrinha may be a kiteboarding company, but it had enough foresight to put a mast track in its 11’6” touring board. Chalk it up to Pete Cabrinha’s history as a world-class windsurfer. The Cabrinha 11′6″ stand up sailboard is an excellent choice for those looking for an all-around performer with a slight tendency toward flat-water cruising and exploration. At 32 inches wide and with 198 liters of volume, it’s stable enough for even the biggest first-time paddlers.
Best for:
Experienced sailors looking for their first stand up paddleboard. Great light-wind wave windsurf board for smaller, slower waves, a nice smooth glide in flat water, and easy to paddle.
Can you teach on it?
Big deck pad, lots of width for stability and enough length for glide make a perfectly reasonable board to teach on — but have the beginner be careful about messing up the pretty wood veneer.
Features:
— 2-pound-density EPS core with a stringer
— Bamboo-veneer deck reinforcement
— EVA foot pads
— 10-inch glass fin
