Plenty of marketing hype...
"Internal wing profile"?
If trying to compete for lightest wind LEI kite, they should have posted weights for each size...

Tried the 12 and the 10 ,light weight ,low bar pressure,good drift and easy relaunch. Only available in orange/black across all sizes ,not a problem for me ....as long as it's not pink it's ok
I am 70kgs so 10m is big enough for me in 10 kts ,in 8kts will be on the Nova

So how does this offering compare to the Ultra, Alpha, etc? Other top lightweight 1 strut kites?
An improvement, or an also-ran?

How do you think I will respond as aready giving Cloud kites a plug?
Well I am 76kg and friend is 110kg , we both have a full quiver of Clouds and have used them for 3 years plus.
Absolutely no issues in regard to your question 10 out of 10 in every case.
My big friend would do over 1,000k distance foiling on his every year.
