CONVEX DIHEDRAL:
Convex Dihedral helps expand the range of the Mantis by providing an increased power to stability ratio. It also creates more steering stability of the wing while flying by the handle on a wave.
CONVEX STRUT:
The new convex strut provides not only increased strength and stiffness, but also allows for a longer attachment between strut and canopy giving a clean fully tensioned profile at all angles of flight.
LOAD PATH:
The Load Path Panel Layout has been carefully designed to help mitigate the varying loads and elongation that occur on wings, translating into a cleaner and more structural product in a wider range of conditions.
SPANWISE PANEL LAYOUT:
Panel layouts running across the wing help distribute load equally throughout the canopy leading to a better distribution of load in key areas across the wing.
CLEAN TENSIONED CANOPY:
It's often said a clean canopy is an efficient one. The Mantis is Cabrinha's cleanest, precisely tensioned canopy design we've ever created. This translation of design to simple on-demand power has led to its ever growing popularity in the wing market.
20/20 VISION:
A refined window layout, running parallel alongside the strut, made from weather resistant TPU provides increased visibility when riding.
TEIJIN D2 RIPSTOP:
Teijin D2 Ripstop is a 55 g/m2 material with a 3mm double rip stop pattern. This micro rip stop material in unison with a newly developed coating, has given us a 2X increase in the canopy’s tear strength. A smaller rip stop pattern increases the amount of “cells” in any given panel.
KEYLOCK ANGLED HANDLE ATTACHMENTS:
Indexing attachment points lock down the composite handles eliminating any rotation at each connection point. The culmination is the most rigid, direct handle design to date.
2X SPRINT:
Two sprint valves connection the Stiff Strut to the Leading edge allow for increased airflow to aid in both inflating and pack down.
TE LOAD DISTRIBUTOR:
The TE load distributor increases wing durability while robustly helping distribute wing tension throughout the trailing edge. The abrasive material stops scuffing while the wing rests on land.
