F-One Bandit 4 Call for Boards or
Other F-One Kites
The Bandit 4 is very fast in the air, but still under extremely good control. Both turns and motions through the wind window are fast. Some kites lose power during turns, but Bandit 4 seems to be able to hold even more power in the turns than the bandit 3 kite, this is a great advantage for kiteloops and when you need that extra lift, for example when you wants to accelerate out of waves.
Furthermore, the kite delivers lots of depower! You notice it already when you launch the kite which can be done on the spot and you will not end up running downwind in an attempt to get control over the kite. While riding on the water you keep the bar at low or mid-low range most of the time and when you need the depower just let go of the bar in its full throw and the kite will lose all its power instantly.
In short 3 struts, more blunted tips, more "C" in the delta C shape and the bigger kites wont be so fat in the middle which will translate into a kite with more stability in gusty wind, faster turning while and ultra responsive while unhooked, especially in the larger sizes. The kites will loop more like a C kite while keeping the de-power and incredible wind range we have all come to know and love from the Delta shape.
