Kiteboard for light wind Jamie, the flatter rocker on a kiteboard helps it get on plane quicker.

kiteboard probably better for light wind,
but if you're powered, the right wakeboard can be money behind the kite.
If you're into wakestyle don't be afraid to try a wakeboard!
switching to a wakeboard was the best thing I've done for my riding in a while
