Hi my mates just bought a cabrinha vector 11m and the things got absolutely no balls even in 20knot winds compared to my octane 11m there is just no grunt. Iv tried playin with the settings and I just don't think it's a grunty kite??

It's meant to be a learner kite. Sounds like it would do a good job.

It's placed somewhere between the Crossbow and the Switchblade in the Cab range.

It offers a steady pull and I think its a great first kite, plenty of depower as well so it covers quite a big wind range.

Vector is a very nice kite and on the Cab line up it positioned more between Switchblade and Drifter then the Crossbow. Does everything quite well but if you are looking for grunt then the SB is the one. Does pretty well also in the surf and in my opinion is not a slow turning kite. If you are a beginner or an intermediate this kind will not hold you back at all..

I have an 11 cab vector and think its great. Im 90kg and can kite from 15kts thru 25kts. Works well depowered and can get solid boost. Could be a setting issue.

check your line lenghts as they are prone to stretching the front lines then you over sheet and choke the kite , well that was the problem i had with an 2012 12m vector and a 2013 13m drifter , both kites front lines where about 4-5 inches to long . cabrinha have a bar tuning vid you will find on there site.
hope this helps
