Thanks. The new bar is compatible with Bandit 4, 5 and 6 which is great. I don't speak french but it seems the new Bandit is just called Bandit 2014 (not 7).

I can't read French either, but the stuff looks good. I was really hoping they weren't going to change the Bandit that much this year. The Bandit 6 is an awesome kite. If it works, don't try to fix it!

I understand that the new QR will be available only in 2014 and wil be optional.

So if I'm buying the kite in the next two month,
and if i want the push away QR i will need to buy it when it will be released?

The bar will be red white or white only as came with bandit 6?

there are only info about, what you can read in brochure

Give some more time, I'm sure they release more details soon

I wonder if the new Technoforce fabric from Teijin for the B7 is the same as the Technoforce D2 for North, since it says "Double rip stop" in the F-one 2014 catalogue? Also in the interview "double rip stop" is mentioned:

"For the past 10 years, since the Mach 1 we have been using the TEIJIN 9600 and it has been the reference in kite materials. After testing the new TEIJIN TECHNOFORCE ™ in double rip stop we discovered that it was stronger and more resistant in the long run."

Hmmm...
