Shooting Sports video with EF-M 55-200: Monopod or Trpod?

Hi all,

Experienced photographer (but a video newbie) wishing to start playing around with video using M50 Mkii and my trusted EF-M 55-200. Mainly watersports like kitesurfing, windsurfing from the shore. Can I get away with a sturdy Monopod or best to use tripod (I have a Manfrotto 190 Pro). As this opportunity is overseas, I am conscious of size, bulk, weight etc  for the airplane.

What have your experiences been?
