Looking forward any info on the V6 of Zephyr, please. I would especially like them to make also a one size smaller than the 17m for lighter riders.
Thank you!

Not everyone is 140 lbs, thank God, and not everyone wants to foil, good riddance.

Nonsense, depends on the wind and how much water there is, and personal preferences.
Used a 17m (Zephyr) quite a few times this summer in 10-15 knots wind on a twintip in 1-2' (30-60cm) water. Not interested in foils (boards and kites), and in any case, Aluula will kill the recreational market stone dead for foil kites (in my opinion).
