The One Pump System allows you to pump the whole kite with just one valve. Safety clips on the connecting tubes isolate the struts from the leading edge. The neoprene cap is simple and effective and every tube is fixed with a security clip to the valve. The security clips are easily removed in case of bladder repair.
Kite Tuning:
2 different positions on the back lines wingtip allows for more bar pressure and a slower turning kite or lighter bar pressure and a faster turning kite.
Kevlar Leading Edge Reinforcements:
Most seams on the leading edge are now reinforced with Kevlar to prevent the seams to deteriorate on aggressive ground friction.They protect the leading edge from damage whenever the kite comes into contact with the ground and significantly prolong the life of the kite.
Skin Reinforcement:
Each skin of the kite is sewn and reinforced by a self-adhesive Dacron for extra strength.
Profiled Leading Edge Tips:
The leading edge tips are profiled and have a reduced diameter to avoid any bridles tangling and drag effect.
Profiled Batten End Tips:
A new batten closing system enables F-One to reduce its diameter in order to decrease the drag. A small batten ensures the closing and holds it in position.
Vertical Cut Battens:
The Bandit 5 struts are designed with a vertical cut in order to optimize the strength/diameter ratio.
FONE "VOLT KITE" & "NEXT BOARD" PACKAGE 2012 :: From $ 2'000 .- complete with bar and pump !!
In navigation, the VOLT gives you confidence because it provides an early and progressive traction during the first meters with a constant power that you can kill at any time. Controlling your speed and keeping your trajectory is excellent.
The VOLT fits all wind conditions and has an exceptional range. Thanks to its three struts, the kite is light. The bar control is precise in order to feel the kite tension and its position in the air, but it’s also very forgiving to riders mistakes.
Auto Relaunch
The auto-relaunch is the most recognized evolution in recent years. The Delta erases the difficulties of past designs during the relaunch phase. the kite automatically tilts on one tip and glides gently to the edge of the wind window, where it safely sits without power.. You only have to guide its re-launch when you are ready to do so. no complicated maneuver is necessary, this is what the auto-relaunch is all about.
Safety
The one and only true safety is to be able to completely kill the power of the kite at any time, in any position. With its EVO bridle, the VOLT can easily be neutralized when you trigger the safety system and it lands on its back without power
Simplicity
The VOLT is based on the Delta C Shape, an F-One patented design. It's a 4 line kite equipped with EVO bridle. It's simple and quick to setup on the beach.
Quality
The VOLT has all the technical developmments of the Bandit 4 and is using the same materials and force frame construction.
- 3 struts - Lines setup identical to Bandit 4 - One pump system - Shorter EVO bridles to optimize relaunch and full depower - Kevlar reinforcements on the leading edge - Kite Tuning in 2 positions - Zipper on leading edge - Safety release identical to Bandit 4
Sizes: 5/7/9/11/13m
Equipment:
• Kite Only: Kite, EVO bridle, Expandable bag, bladder repair kit • Bar 45cm for Kites 4/5/7/9 with 24m lines + leash • Bar 55cm for Kites 11/13 with 24m lines + leash
FONE NEXT KITEBOARD:
Kiteboard Features
There are experienced and hardcore riders who demand power and speed from a board and are always looking to push forward their limits, and there are casual and beginner riders who enjoy a recreational cruise or need to gain confidence and progress and are in search of a more forgiving and easy to use board. Especially for the second category, F-One has built the Next. Next has enough power and runs fast, but it is very user friendly, easy to handle and safe.
All of the 2011 board models introduced by F-One are constructed using the latest technology and the finest fabrics. This construction assures top performance and quality and provides the rider with a board which suits his specific needs. If you are looking for a forgiving board which is easy to use, safe and very comfortable, look no more because the new Next has arrived. F-One Next is a board which can be used in a multitude of conditions, and, most important, by any rider, regardless of skills.
Perhaps it does not have the pop and power the extreme new school freestylers require, but it is pretty fast, it offers nice jumps and lifts and can be controlled without any effort at all. The board goes upwind fast and easy and has a nice acceleration. It doesn’t have the traction force of a truck, but it reaches an impressive top speed. F-One has also improved the planning abilities of the board, so it is a great choice for progression. The board performs great in light wind conditions, and it is stable and predictable if the wind picks up.
Intermediate riders can perform nice moves and have plenty of pop to exercise new tricks. F-One has equipped the Next with inverted ABS rails which allow the rider to turn quite fast and control the board easily, while it is in constant contact with the water and provides extra stability. Other enhancements are the Unibox system and the Response fins which increase steering response and grip. These special fins are enhanced to twist under pressure to assure excellent control and increase performance. The Direct Drive technology assures that the rider is in total control at all times and the board provides positive feedback at any command.
F-One has built the Next using a full Wood core to make sure it offers optimal flex response and tensile strength. This structure also balances the weight to strength ratio and makes the board light and durable. The Pro Platinum pads and Straplock II strap system assures perfect binding between feet and board and assure excellent comfort throughout the entire ride. The F-One Next is available in five sizes and comes complete with binding system, Unibox, fins and handle.

THE NEW ARRIVAL ... FREEBORDING ...
Here is the new arrival in the services of Kitesurf 1770 ... we are now snowboarding on the asphalt ... yep !!
We are freebording ... Hire, sales, lessons, tours ...
We started out wanting to snowboard all year, wherever and whenever we wanted. And so, we designed a board that gave riders the control of a snowboard on pavement. As Freebord has evolved, so has our goal: bring as much control as possible to riding on pavement. Our riders can carve, slide, slow down and stop whenever they want. They can go as fast or as slow as they want. They can bomb the steepest of streets or ride mellow cruisers; hit big open roads or the narrowest of sidewalks. On a Freebord, riders have the control they need to ride what they want and how they want.
