Chilli Surfboards Reviews

My "go-to" board in most Florida conditions. Superb paddling power and flatter rocker helps glide over the typical and numerous flat sections in Florida surf, yet still gives some maneuverability and release in the pocket on steeper sections. I'll ride this usually up to 3-4ft surf. Fits in between my groveller (CI Neckbeard) and my high performance board (CI Fever). My favorite board in my quiver!!!

Super fun custom order through the guys at Chilli. Paul is the best! I ordered it in EPS it’s very light and lively. For a groveler it does well with some size too. The low rail makes it easy to turn. It’s doesn’t feel like a fish. I’ve tried the futures Sea Worthy fins and like it. I haven’t gone with the thruster yet but hear it goes well. Now I have the captain fin black and white quad set up with a nubster. I’m ready for summer. No need for a longboard with this sled. I highly recommend it. A+++

Very fast and skatey fish, liked it a lot, until i surfed it the 10th time or something and fell on it... snapped in half so i would say not a strong board... there was not even a ding in it.. sad story but enjoyed it while it lasted

First performance board I’ve ridden and it does not disappoint. Super easy to paddle, tons of volume but great on a deep duck dive. Drives down the line with no stalls. User errors have been my only downfalls. I picked mine up used from a local shop, the glass work was a little lighter than usual so that’s the only reason I have a lower score on quality.

I’m 6’0 200lbs Such a sick board. Def very versatile, you can get it in good waves and grovels well. Board turns on a dime, gets into waves very easily and early. When waves have a little more punch I use the med pyzels and when it’s more mushy I use the f8 vaporcore fins. Rails are pretty sensitive so you’ll want a fuller fin when the waves are weaker.

Great board! super versatile and works in all conditions with lots of speed and turns on a dime.

Killer board my local surf shop just started getting chili in. Love it for some solid surf and even some mushier stuff. Great drive and speed love what chili is doing with their boards.

A truly amazing board! It is perfect for LA waves! It works very well knee to waist waves and can be amazing with bigger waves.

Very solid board for everyday surfing around SoCal up to head high surf. Handles almost any condition and is quite forgiving. This is a one board quiver type of board that you can take anywhere.

I found it a little difficult to paddle into waves but when you do catch them the board is super fast and fun. Easy to turn. I have it set up as a thruster. This is not a beginner board. Didn’t have a lot of foam in front, which I think makes it a little harder to paddle than I expected. Overall good is a great board and I use it all the time.
