You should be fine on the higher end 15 to 23 knots. This smaller board should also let ya handle some higher winds if your skills are there and since your doing it on a Fuel 17 at 23 knots I guess they are.. for lighter winds then 15 ya probally need to go with a bigger board. Lots of kiters doing it with directionals.
