BANDIT BRAINCHILD

Everywhere, anytime in every condition

This F-ONE BANDIT brings a fresh evolution while staying true to its DNA that riders know and love. Benefitting from Brainchild’s latest technologies, this new BANDIT is intuitive and predictable, delivering exceptional control and versatility in every session.

The kite features a new hybrid bridle system, offering greater control, precise handling and a more direct connection. Riders will appreciate its crisp bar feel and consistent steering pressure, as well as its predictability across the wide wind range, whether in the low or high end.

The aspect ratio has also been slightly increased — the highest ever on a BANDIT — which optimizes airflow for smoother, more responsive turning and enhances depower efficiency. The depower system is also further refined with a focus on accessibility, allowing for a more precise positioning within the wind window.

Lighter fabrics from Brainchild ensure improved responsiveness without compromising the overall feel and performance that have made the BANDIT a legend. The overall shape, flight characteristics, and versatility remain timeless, ready to meet the needs of every rider in every discipline and every condition.
