Maximum performance with the new CODE-TEC fabric

The CODE-TEC fabric delivers the perfect combination of lightness and strength , elevating the performance of the F-ONE Bandit Tec 2025 to a whole new level. With minimal stretch and high tear resistance, it creates an extremely stable and stiff kite structure that reduces deformation under load. The result: precise, responsive handling and a sharp ride , regardless of wind conditions .

CODE-TEC – The heart of the new Bandit Tec (Bandit XVII)

CODE -TEC material takes center stage on the new F-ONE Bandit Tec (Bandit XVII), defining the future of this legendary kite. With a fresh graphic look and even more versatile performance, this kite is suitable for every discipline:

• Strapless
• Foil
• Big Air
• Freeride
• surfing

Maximum control & efficiency in all wind conditions

The Bandit Tec impresses with precise handling and finely tuned controls that allow you to feel every movement of the kite directly – without much effort .

• In strong winds: The kite stays stable at the edge of the wind window , pulls constantly forward and thus improves your upwind performance without you having to overload your edge - this saves energy and protects your board.
• In light winds: Even power transmission relieves the strain on your arms and makes riding comfortable and effortless .

Thanks to the optimized bar feel, every session feels light and smooth.

Perfect for Big Air: Stable jumps & powerful kiteloops

Whether for big air, high jumps or soft landings – the F-ONE Bandit Tec delivers:

• High, vertical jumps with perfect balance
• Responsive controls for precise landings
• Dynamic kiteloops with optimal pull and stability

F-ONE Bandit Tec – The kite for ultimate versatility & performance

The F-ONE Bandit Tec is the perfect freeride and big air kite for anyone seeking performance, versatility, and innovation . Whether beginner or pro, flat water or waves , this kite guarantees maximum control and pure joy on the water.

Delta C-Shape

The patented DELTA C-SHAPE enables unparalleled stability and controllability even when the kite is fully depowered and has proven itself in all kite models for over 15 years.
This shape is the result of design research aimed at maximizing the kite's aerodynamic performance and depower. The DELTA C-SHAPE allows for more canopy area in the center sections to create more projected area, while the C-shape ensures the kite remains responsive and easy to turn.

Code Tec

A groundbreaking advance is the new Code-Tec material.

Code-Tec features a double-bar matrix ripstop pattern, utilizing high-tensile fibers and a proprietary chemical dip coating to create a high-performance yet durable fabric characterized by low stretch, high tear strength, and UV resistance.

This cutting-edge material, offering an exceptional combination of lightness and strength, is used throughout the kite's inflatable structure, significantly reducing overall weight and enabling smoother relaunches and faster turns.

Code-Tec increases structural rigidity and minimizes deformation under load. This results in a more precise, crisp feel and more responsive handling in flight, especially during kiteloops, while ensuring your kite maintains its shape in all conditions.

Technoforce

TEIJIN's TECHNOFORCE(TM) is the most reliable polyester fabric on the market. It features a very high density and is extremely tear-resistant. Using a very thin yarn with high tensile strength, this fabric is extremely durable.

It has proven itself in terms of lightness and durability.

Staggered Steams

This innovative F-ONE design enables a very slim profile for greater efficiency and performance.

The offset seams were placed at critical points on the kite. The tension line of the seam is interrupted, providing a perfectly leveled canopy profile when the kite is fully powered.

The fabric is aligned for tension. The perfectly even canopy profile provides sensational stability without any noticeable disturbances in the bar.
