I have owned the kites from new, they are in excellent condition with no damage or repairs. All of the bladders hold air with no loss of pressure.
The kites are rinsed and dried after use and they are dry stores in the house, not the garage or shed. (Pet and smoke free home)
I live in Leighton Buzzard which is about as far as you can live from the coast so they have had little use.
I learnt to kitesurf on F one Bandit version 3’s and have been true to the brand ever since. They are easy to fly and re-launch, are well made and an excellent kite for all abilities.
You are more than welcome to view the kite. I live about 10 minutes off junction 12 on the M1. Please message me if you would like to do this.
I am open to sensible offers before I list the kites on Ebay.
I also have a 12m Bandit 4, also in excellent condition
Cheers
Paul
