Hi, I can't compare the 12 to the 12..
only the 16.5 to the 15.1 M;Ach 1
The MAch 1 has less low end grund, more Depower effect, better top end but much less low end grund
the 12 MAch 1 is really cool, I like the kite so far
Waterrelaunch with the Gaastra is better
Greetings Buzzy

I like the 9.1 F.One better and the 12 Gaastra better....
F.one has more depower. Gaastra turns faster. Haven't had a chance to test smaller/larger Gaastra than 10 and 12.
Still love the 15 F.one.
Haven't ridden in 14 days as slammed my back on the beach so it may be awhile before I post any experiences again!
