Zen
Explore the Zen, Kona's updated fish for surfers who want easy speed, a classic fish feel, and a board that stays fun when the surf is on the softer side.
Board Details
How does this board ride?
The Zen carries speed quickly, pumps easily, and stays loose through flatter sections where a more performance-minded shortboard can bog down. It keeps enough control through the tail that it does not feel overly slippery once the wave stands up.
What skill level is this board for?
The Zen works well for surfers who want a fish that feels lively without becoming too technical. It is a strong fit for riders looking to add a small-wave board to the quiver or for surfers who want a wider, easier board that still turns with more intent than a fuller hybrid.
More board info
This model uses a fish-style outline with the wide point forward, relaxed nose and tail rocker, single-to-double concave with a channel out the tail, and a swallow tail. The updated bottom and tail details give the board a little more bite and direction than a purely retro fish.
