The F.One Bandit 3 is a totally new designed kite. The concept (Delta C-Shape) is the same, but the profile has changed. The new Bandit 3's are now built with a new one-pump system,and a bridle design that is cleaner and more effecient than previous models. With the release of the f one bandit comes a new bar. The F one bar has been developed to work alongside the bandits delta c bridle to allow for more de-power on a shorter bar throw. The F one bar also features a new articulating tounge on the chicken loop allowing for easier unhooking when needed. The first thing you notice when you are flying the Bandit 3's is the stability. It just doesn’t fall out of the Air even in super gusty winds, you will find it very hard to get the kite to drop out of the sky!

The F.One Bandit 3 Features:

New profile/shape and traditional one pump
Increased stability over entire range, especially in smaller sizes
Much shorter bridle
All line lengths on control bar now same length :D :thumb:
Safety line now goes through bar/in center of chicken loop
Low end slightly decreased but top end greatly increased
Lighter bar pressure, smoother especially when sheeted out, yet still direct feel for that C-kite feel
Shorter trim strap but with wider wind range
New articulating tongue on chicken loop for easier hook in/out
Stylish new graphics

The F.One Bandit Design:
DELTA The new Delta C-Shape is an innovative F-One patented design resulting from extensive research on kite aerodynamics and de-power capabilities. The Delta brings unmatched stability in fully depower position and allows the front line attachment to be positioned higher up the leading edge. The C-shape design maintains the highest standards in performance and steering.

Dual Bar:

The F.One Bandit Safety:

AUTO RELAUNCH - Once the kite is sitting with the leading edge flat on the water, its C-shape associated with the Delta Pivot allows the kite to automatically roll over onto one wing tip. The kite will then “glide” towards the edge of the window, ready for quick and easy water re-launch.

EVO Depower and Life Line - The EVO is a V shaped bridle featuring a pulley on each front line, this system offers complete safety and allows for increased de-power by finely tuning the angle of attack of the kite. When the quick release is activated the EVO system becomes the Life Line and the kite lands safely on its back with immediate and total power kill. EVO offers complete control with direct and responsive steering in all riding conditions. Sheeting in and out is very progressive, the rider truly directs the kite even when fully de-powered. Unhooked the kite remains light and very predictable. The kite has only 4 lines and a 4m long Life Line!

The F.One Bandit Technology:

Fusion Struts - The struts are integrated in the extrados up to front of the profile. Blended with the Force Frame

FORCE FRAME - Kites with extended de-power ranges sustain more pressure across the canopy as they experience an increased frequency of use over a wider wind range. Consequently F-One has developed a completely new structure, offering optimized durability and weight. The Force Frame is a solid Dacron structure consisting of the leading edge, the trailing edge and the struts. This high strength skeleton structure is then covered with Spy material in the least vulnerable areas.Kites with extended de-power ranges sustain more pressure across the canopy as they experience an increased frequency of use over a wider wind range.
