Following the success of the F2 Chilli range last year the range has been expanded to include a second board - freestylers who know what they are doing will instantly love the new Chillis.
Developed by Patrik Diethelm to meet the demands of F2 and PWA sailors Tonky Frans and John Skye the two Chilli boards perfectly compliment each other. Updated from 2006 to be 100% towards new school freestyle (just like the F2 Comp Style days) these boards make even the most difficult of moves easy. Designed to plane early and accelerate to a high top-end speed these boards have incredible pop with even the slightest foot pressure.
From Vulcans to Burners these boards will give you the edge. Twist, Slide and Style!
The unchanged rocker-line stands the test of time and like the 3 generations before, it gives the best in early planing and fast acceleration. A new more harmonic outline lets the Chilli slide and turn like a disc. Flat Vee lets the water rip off cleanly during the most complex manoeuvres, plus with a slight additional Vee in the tip the new Chillis provide total fin first control.
The new tail shape combines the cut outs (similar to those found on the F2 slalom boards) and spock tail with a whole new edge geometry. This gives the Chilli an amazingly free planing position, unbelievable pop and complete safety in fin first moves. If you have seen Frestyle World Champion Tonky Frans completing some of the amazing new-school freestyle tricks - you will know what we mean!
The deck shape gets a makeover and guarantees the best stance in all crazy moves. The slightly domed deck allows thin rails over the whole length without any loss of volume. The rails are slightly tucked to maintain a smooth ride, control and grip in turns. Thin rails let the Chilli turn like it was on rails.
Built in technology sandwich carbone/kevlar, the Chilli range hit the scales at an amazing 6 kg.
