SOS Big Red vs. Exocet Kona

We haven't received the Exocet Kona Surfs in the US yet...prolly about a month out...but, we've hooked up
many happy sailors with Kona Styles...

I have been asked basically the question of relative differences dozens of times...so I put a gallery of pics
together comparing the Kona Style with the SOS standup / wavesailing longboards...
I think the surfboard refinements of the SOS boards are pretty obvious...

The Kona is a sailboard...but, it definitely functions as a
standup board to do downwinders...and it can ride waves...

We shipped one of our carbon paddles to a guy in Sweden to make him the 1st beach boy surfer in
Sweden...and he got a Kona to facilitate that...
