I was Looking for an alternative to foil kite in light winds.
Have used my Kauper 12 m2 for a couple of hours with my foil, Moses 633.
Not much of a review but so far I am very satisfied with the light wind performance while handling the gusts great. Water relaunch is very easy.
In principle, the kite feels just as it is described on Kaupers website.

Mr Kauper, do you sell your kites and gear to people in the U.S.?

Personally i think he is right, because lawsuit and customer rights in Usa is to much with absurd.

Could you keep us up to date when you have had more sessions please?

That look like nice low-wind relaunch.
Any more vids are welcome!
