After a bit of hunting we have come across some official information:

Description
JN’s new ram air kite Semi Freddo combines the excellent depower ability and easy handling characteristics of tube kites with the simple launch and landing procedures of ram air kites. Its high turning speed, smooth and direct handling with moderate bar pressure and, last but not least, its very quick inflation and simple relaunch characteristics are distinguishing marks on the entire wind range.

The beginner friendly Semi Freddo is also extremely light and compact and thus ideal for tours and travelling. This ram air kite is well suited for both freeriders and freestylers. Quick trimming guarantees riders a sheer unlimited range of use.
