F-One 2014?

Postby Wave_Ride » Thu Jul 18, 2013 10:50 am

Hi,

Is there any news on F-one 2014 kites and boards line up?
Is there going to be Bandit 7 or they are developing another kite with other name?

Fone boards usually start selling at about October.
The kites late Sep i think.

the ex-Fone disigner Sylvain Peretti left F-one at the end of 2012 after more than 10 years to make is own brand (www.stormkitesurfing.com) so maybe it will be some change in F-one line up :wink:

I love my Bandit 6, but I'm hoping for a re-design for the depower. The hard red plastic dildo wacks my knuckles occasionally when riding.

I hope they will not change too much. The bandit 6 is the best allrounder on the market

what they could do is to give third back line attachment point so the kite is faster turning with lighter steering forces. There is plenty of room to do that, don't know why they haven't done it in B5 and B6?

Are you joking?
The Bandit is probably the best selling kite.
North maybe sells the most kites but theyhve like 4 different models.
Fone has (till recently) only a single kite that does it all and rumors say that Fone are between #3 and #5 in kite sails
