2021 Cabrinha Code Wood Wing Board

The 2021 Cabrinha Code Wood Wing Board is a dedicated wing foil board from Cabrinha's first-generation Code line, built on the foundation of the earlier Macro design. As one of the initial purpose-built wing foiling platforms in Cabrinha's range, the Code was developed to deliver a compact, high-volume shape optimized for water starts, foil pumping, and maneuverable riding once on foil. The "Wood" designation refers to the bamboo composite construction used in this version, pairing a lightweight EPS core with a uni-directional carbon stringer and bamboo laminate for a balance of durability and low swing weight.

The board's design centers on a short, compact outline with a concave deck that lowers the rider's foot position for more direct foil connection. A kick tail with integrated release channels helps break water tension during takeoff, promoting earlier lift onto the foil. The full-coverage EVA deck pad supports both strapped and strapless riding, and the board accommodates two- or three-strap insert configurations.

• Length: 5'4"
• Width: 27"
• Thickness: 4.7"
• Volume: 98 L
• Core: EPS
• Construction: Bamboo composite with UD carbon stringer
• Deck: Full EVA deck pad, concave profile
• Foil mount: Adjustable track mount
• Strap inserts: 2- or 3-strap configurations
• Available sizes (2021 range): 58 L, 68 L, 78 L, 88 L, 98 L, 118 L

The 98-liter size sits toward the larger end of the Code range, making it suitable for heavier riders or intermediates who benefit from extra volume during water starts and light-wind sessions. The additional buoyancy helps riders get up on foil sooner, which is particularly useful for those still refining their pump technique or transitioning from larger beginner boards. That said, the compact 5'4" length keeps the board manageable once airborne, so progressing riders won't quickly outgrow it.

The Code's design intent spans from first water starts through to wave riding and freestyle, so it suits a broad progression arc. Riders focused on light-wind cruising, flatwater freeride, or early wave foiling will find the 98 L a practical choice, especially in areas where marginal wind days are common. The concave deck and low-profile stance also benefit riders who prefer a responsive, connected feel through the foil.

The 2021 Code was Cabrinha's first dedicated wing foil board, succeeding the Macro shape that had served as an early crossover platform. In subsequent model years, the Code received refinements including updated tail profiles and revised volume distribution, but the core design philosophy — compact outline, concave deck, and versatile size range — has carried through. The Wood construction sits between entry-level glass layups and full carbon builds, offering a practical middle ground on weight and price.

Within the 2021 lineup, the Code was Cabrinha's sole wing-specific foilboard before the range expanded in later seasons. Riders comparing across brands at this price point and generation might also look at the Slingshot Outwit or the Fanatic Sky Wing, both of which targeted a similar intermediate-to-advancing rider with comparable volume options. As a closeout model, the 2021 Code Wood represents an accessible entry into Cabrinha's foil platform at a significant discount from its original retail price.
