Old School
Explore the Old School, Kona's egg-inspired hybrid for surfers who want simple paddle speed, smooth turning, and a board that stays useful across a wide range of everyday conditions.
Board Details
How does this board ride?
The Old School glides easily, gets moving without much effort, and stays smooth through turns instead of feeling twitchy. It works well as an everyday board because it has enough foam and easy speed for average sessions, but the tail and bottom shape still keep it responsive when you put it on rail.
What skill level is this board for?
The Old School makes sense for surfers who want an alternative shape that feels forgiving without becoming dull. It is a good fit for riders looking for a versatile midlength-style board that handles smaller surf well but still has enough control when the waves get better.
More board info
This shape uses an egg-like outline with the wide point forward, relaxed entry rocker, double barrel concave, and a tucked rounded pin tail with a slight wing. It can be run in different fin setups, which helps the board cover everything from a looser twin-fin feel to a more settled 2+1 setup.
