The Chilli story

Founding owner Jamie Cheal has surfed almost every day of his life, even completing his first top turn on a surfboard at the Gold Coast's Greenmount aged just 13. Turning his hand to shaping surfboards back in 1995, Chilli surfboards was born in his Australian production factory in New South Wales. 

Fast forward to now, and nothing has changed – except the fact Chilli is now a household name in the industry. Chilli surfboards take detailed craftsmanship to the next level, refusing to equip their boards with anything but high-quality assets. Renowned for their authentic attention to detail, these Chilli surfboards for sale use both modern and traditional materials including their own custom-made carbon weave to create the perfect combination of strength and performance.
