F-One’s international is taking place in Mauritius. Check out the first pictures of the new kite from F-One, the Bandit 3.

The main differences between the 2010 and 2009 Bandit kites are:

* New profile/shape and traditional one pump
* Increased stability over entire range, especially in smaller sizes
* Much shorter bridle

* All line lengths on control bar now same length
* Safety line now goes through bar/in center of chicken loop
* Low end slightly decreased but top end greatly increased
* Lighter bar pressure, smoother especially when sheeted out, yet still direct feel for that C-kite feel
* Shorter trim strap but with wider wind range
* New articulating tongue on chicken loop for easier hook in/out
* Stylish new graphics
