It's been a while since I was on here having sold my Kona Style a while back............ and regretting it ever since!
Anyway, I'm considering getting another but was wondering what the top speeds of the other models in the range are like? do they compare to the Kona One or are they likely to be slower due to their more surf orientated rockers?
Thanks : )

The 11'5 has the same original rocker. It is faster than the One. Rails are thinned down, and it has stiffer constructions available. Plus the EVA only covers the deck, not the rails.
The One can handle bigger sails and fins, but the 11'5 is respectably fast with a 9.0 and below.

Thanks John, sounds more like what I'm looking for these days. Does the fact you can't have the back straps in an outboard position on the 11'5 make much difference to top speed?
