F-One BANGER QuadX Kite | 27

Big air performance meets everyday versatility — direct, stable and incredibly predictable.

The new F-One Banger 2026 is built for kiters looking for the perfect balance between versatility and big air performance. From massive boosts and controlled kiteloops to comfortable freeriding in gusty conditions, the Banger gives you loads of confidence. Thanks to the stiff QuadX construction, fixed bridles, and size-optimized shapes, this is without a doubt one of the most complete high-performance kites F-One has ever made.

Powerful big air all-rounder

Developed together with six-time kitefoil world champion Charles Brodel, the Banger is designed to give you maximum confidence in all conditions. Whether you are just starting to jump higher or already working on huge loops and rotations, the Banger feels direct, stable, and incredibly predictable.

The frame features a stiff QuadX leading edge combined with HT80 material. This keeps the kite extremely stable in strong gusts while maintaining a low overall weight. The Banger steers smoothly, reacts more directly to steering input, and always maintains consistent bar pressure, so you constantly know where the kite is during jumps and loops.

The fixed 6-point bridle gives the Banger more direct steering input and consistent bar pressure, perfect for tricks. The progressive depower delivers power in a controlled way, allowing you to perfectly time your takeoff while maintaining strong edge control. This results in very vertical lift, long hangtime, and a second lift that gives your jumps extra height with smooth landings.

The kite moves easily through the wind window: in lighter wind it builds power effortlessly, while in stronger wind it accelerates smoothly toward the edge of the wind window without producing excessive pull. Each size of the Banger is optimized for the wind range it is designed for — larger sizes excel in lighter wind, smaller sizes perform better in stronger wind for big air tricks and megaloops.
