Bandit 17 TEC

Our CODE-TEC fabric offers an exceptional combination of lightness and strength. With less elongation and higher tear resistance, the CODE-TEC provides greater structural stiffness, minimizing deformation under load. This leads to a more precise and sharper feel, as well as a more reactive handling, all while ensuring your kite maintains its shape in any conditions.
This material has been central to the new BANDIT TECs design, marking the entry into a new era of this emblematic F-ONE kite. Sporting renewed graphic design as well, the BANDIT TEC is once again more versatile than ever, adapting perfectly to all disciplines: strapless, foil, Big Air, freeride, wave, etc.
Responsive and precise, this BANDIT TEC boasts exceptional handling, with enough support through the bar to let you feel every movement of the kite without forcing.
In strong winds, the kite positions itself at the edge of the wind window, maintaining a constant forward traction with no side pull. The result is remarkable upwind performance, without the need for too much edging, saving energy and freeing up your board.
In the low end, the BANDIT TEC offers you maximal support, distributed evenly over the harness and back, taking the strain off your arms. You can ride effortlessly and steadily, enjoying a light bar feel at all times, making every session super satisfying.
Jumps are a real pleasure with this BANDIT TEC. The stable support through the harness, combined with its maneuverability and responsiveness, makes it easy to nail the perfect takeoff. The boost is powerful and vertical, giving you impressive amplitude and height. Kite loops are also made easier thanks to the kites responsiveness. Traction is perfectly balanced, allowing you to land smoothly whatever the wind strength.
Combining performance, lightness, maneuverability and responsiveness, the BANDIT TEC excels in all disciplines, anywhere, anytime, in every condition, and no matter your level. A real pleasure to ride with, this new kite highlights once again our ongoing commitment to innovation, quality and accessibility.
