I use the 18m from 6-10 knots. They are very good with foil boards, I am getting a 14m.

I am 190lbs and use the 13m and 10m... The 13 w/my foil will be perfect in 8-11kts aka 10-12mph

I have a video review and blog coming out in a day or so.

My 16 Velocity works perfect foiling, especially upwind. My lower limit is the ability for the kite to hover.
If it flies, I fly...
Have also the 13 but it wont get me going in really light winds. If I get it going it will go just as well as the 16 but needs a bit more wind to start.
If the wind picks up you do need to downgrade quickly as the 16 will give you one scary ride. especially downwind :jump:
Could you stay on the 13? Sure. Just a bit more tricky to get going and wont pull full speed upwind.
