long answer short, yes..
but depending on the board, you will struggle to stay upwind.
your better off getting a wakestyle kiteboard, contact will at pulse kiteboarding his email address is woppow@hotmail.com
he should be able to hook you up with a sweet board pretty cheap.
You can kiteboard on anything as stated but do you want to have fun doing it or end up screaming down wind. If you jump on the water and it doesnt matter where you end up, then yeah, use a wakeboard (cheap alternative if you already have one), but if you ever want to hold your ground easy, there are many kiteboards that are much more fun in the process.
Most of all Have Fun!
