I'm presuming that skill levels are all about the same? Newbie to intermediate? The 200 pounder, if a newbie, would struggle with the 4'6". The smaller 80 pounder should be able to flip the 5'0" up...but may need a slower start from the boat than normal. That said, the 5'0" everyone in the weight range can ride, the 4'6" might prove difficult for the bigger folks. When first learning to ride, bigger is usually easier to learn on...the only caveat is that smaller, younger riders may need some extra help getting the board flipped up to start.
