can a 200 pound fella surf waves on a fuse? Or would he be too 'boggy'?

I actually have a fuse. This is for someone else. He weighs 225 and is wondering if the fuse will allow him a ride. He has some surf skill but is interested in the fuse for it's twin tip closeness

hell yeah, I've seen several big guys ripping on Fuses. You still need to be powered up though, same kite as a twin tip. They have a very surfy feel. Slither removed the second set of fins which loosens it up a lot and gives it a twin tip feel without losing the upwind or turning ability.
