Be careful on the Banana. The nose will chatter a lot at speed (depending on the deck) because the beefy construction is not tip to tail. Therefore, if you bash something with your nose/tail your board may split.
I'm currently riding the new Never Summer EVO 158. It's built like a brick shithouse. I can mob as fast as I can (50-60 mph?) and it's super solid. It's rockered, so riding flat pow is as easy as can be. It's buttery-ass smooth while retaining excellent shred capabilities.
Everyone is throwing a rocker into their boards now. Weigh your options and go with your first intuition.
