Chilli Midstrength Review - The Regular Guy S04E03

The Chilli “Midstrength” was designed for ease of paddling without sacrificing rail work and performance. When surfing a board over 7’ in length, you are always a little dubious when you hear the word, performance, but in this instance they got it spot on!

I was very impressed by the board and some of my guest testers, Dave and Richard, absolutely loved it. For an older guy, wanting a board for average wave days where the shortboard is hard work, look no further. This is a solid option for you.

I surfed it in a thruster and quad - I definitely preferred the Quad.

My Stats: 5’11” and 112kg
Board Stats: 7’6" x 22 1/4 x 3'
