BANDIT 18

Controlled speed for greater comfort and control in all conditions
Smoother riding in choppy water and easier edging for jumping
Optimized power management for a comfortable, fatigue-free high end
Stability in all conditions
Total versatility from freeriding to strapless, all the way to your first kiteloops

Our ambition was simple: to make every move easier and more natural for all riders in all conditions. By refining power management and depower capacity, we slightly reduced the riding speed to deliver more control and comfort.
Based on the design and success of our last BANDIT, this new edition inherits all its key strengths: Staggered Seams for a perfectly smooth profile and outstanding stability in the air, optimized fabric distribution for the ideal balance between performance and comfort, and its trustworthy Delta C-Shape. It also incorporates a new 160 g Dacron on the leading edge, which is stronger and more durable, to support its performance and ensure increased longevity.
As a result, this new BANDIT delivers consistent, controlled speed, direct and intuitive handling, and the most comfortable ride yet, even when conditions get demanding.
On the water, everything feels easier: choppy waters are smoother to navigate, edging becomes more natural, and jumps are more accessible. Power control in the high end is outstanding, allowing for longer sessions without feeling fatigued. The planing start is instantaneous, bar feel is precise without being tiring, and maneuverability is excellent, whether riding a twintip, surfing strapless, or trying your first kite loops.
From your first sessions to your most ambitious maneuvers, the BANDIT instantly gives you confidence and supports you as you progress.
