..Although getting over the whitewash underpowered - then powered up by down looping all the while on a strapless surfboard... well it sounds bloody challenging!

During these windless weeks that we face, what would the minimum wind speed possible be, to ride a surfboard strapless (6'4")in the surf? I need a minimum 15kn on a twintip on flat, maybe 14kn if I wanted to walk.
Would it be better to:
a: ride a smaller kite 9 or 12m and kiteloop for power to catch waves, then park the kite and surf as normal
b: ride a 16m+ and try not get dragged off the board
Anyone tried either option.....it's been weeks, I need to kite, just not surf....or is luffing the kite a huge possibility, dropping it in the impact zone and not be able to get it back up in f'all wind.....help.....
