If top speed is what your after, the W58 is best for sure. Very easy board to use and has a great wind range. It also pretty quick. Can be sailed like a high wind xs slalom but is also a great light wind speed board. Decent on chop and gybes good. Won't accelerate out of gybes as quick as the iS87 or iS90.
I use mine with a 7m, 7.8m and 8.6m, fins from 30cm to 34cm. In the right conditions, the board is good for low 40's, I did manage to get a 38k peak with an 8.6m this summer. Definetly think it will do 40k with big sails
