Yes. Last week I saw someone fly a 3m waroo and a skim board at the sandbar. Sure he was working it, but anything is possible. Also those little foil kites have a good amount of pull. I have also seen someone on a 4m foil at Rooster when it was howling.

You can ride on water with a 3m foil starting at about 35mph and super wide wide board (45 CM) but if you're a newbie I would recommend it , keep riding on land to develop good skills till you get a kite
