Now in its 6th generation, the Mantis has become the benchmark for riders who demand stability, power, and versatility on the water. From smooth wave riding to cruising, its ability to stay balanced when flagged out and deliver low-end drive when needed has made it one of the most trusted wings in the sport.
For 2026, the Mantis continues to raise the bar. Built with precision craftsmanship, the upgraded Airframe inflation system, and a construction process refined for consistency, it delivers smoother handling, greater durability, and the most dependable feel yet.
Every detail has been considered, including the new Handlebar boom, now standard on every Mantis, and a redesigned bag that makes packing simple with no need to remove it.
From effortless down-the-line surfing to powered-up freeride sessions, the Mantis gives you the stability to flow, the power to fly, and the reliability to progress session after session.
Mantis Features
Airframe Inflation System
Drop Strut Design
Teijin D2 Ripstop Canopy - Lightweight, high performing with exceptional durability
Draft forward outline for a more refined balance
Fine tuned size progressive wing tip twist for forgiving sheeting
Lightweight Graduated TE load distribution panel for improved efficiency of the loaded sail
Refined draft forward airfoil flow, with increased front hand balance
Carbon composite batten for improved TE stability
Spanwise load path panel layout
Fully moulded composite handlebar boom with indexing mounting interface
Full rigid performance LE handle with anti-abrasion patch
Heavy duty UHMPWE reinforced closing seam construction
2-ply high rigidity centre load reinforcement for added arc and dihedral stability
Low dihedral for high projected area power and front handle drift stability
Durable TPU bumpers
Wing Design Profile
High rigidity LE Inflatable, Low Dihedral with full powerfull profile, Medium AR and convex strut.
Key Features
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.
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.
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.
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.
20/20 Vision A refined window layout, running parallel alongside the strut, made from weather resistant TPU provides increased visibility when riding.
Convex Strut The Convex support strut provides a stiff and reactive connection between the rider and wing.
