Introducing the Full Strength designed by James Cheal. The next generation in our ‘mid-length’ category was inspired by James’ journey to the Mentawai Islands, Indonesia with his son. With a quiver of the popular Mid Strength that is used mainly in the east coast of Australia conditions, he thought it would be good to create something different with a progressive performance outline, but still have the attributes of his much-loved Mid Strength.
James refined and designed a 6’6 and 6’10 Project Black Full Strength to R&D on his trip, both with subtle tweaks and variances to find a perfect performance mid-length. James found the 6’6 Full Strength to be a perfect all-rounder in 3ft – 6ft conditions. James is 52 years old and 85kg. The 6’10 got ridden when James wanted to take it easy, catch more waves, and found it fit in the pocket on good waves and still able to turn on a dime.
What is the difference between the Mid Strength and Full Strength?
1. The Full Strength’s outline is pulled in at the nose by 1/8″ decreasing drag up front. The back end is also narrower creating a nice, rounded pin tail giving it more of a shortboard feel. This allows the board to perform better in the pocket, and at higher speeds on the face while maintaining that paddle power the Mid Strength possesses.
2. The Full Strength’s rail is lower with a more rolled deck, allowing for more progressive surfing and greater bite on the wave face, again, at higher speeds for when the surf is good.
The rocker and bottom contours of this updated board are very similar to the Mid Strength (if it ain’t broke, dont fix it). The Full Strength paddles well, yet has a more refined outline, increasing the level of performance it has to offer.
If you love the Mid Strength, we highly recommend you indulge in the Full Strength for those bigger, more powerful waves or just better days. This duo will ultimately keep you covered across all types of conditions and sizes of waves. To size yourself up, compare with your current Mid Strength and ride the same length or drop down 2 inches to gain that extra level of performance in a board that still keeps your wave count high!

About brand
Chilli plays a game of details.
Whether it's our Colan Products Carbon weave, our QR identification codes or the signature Line, we've refused to equip our boards with anything but the most finely-sourced assets.
Chilli is more than foam and resin. We keep it unique.
Carbon
Unique to Chilli Surfboards, Chilli's carbon weave is designed with Colan Products Australia to create the perfect combination of strength and performance.
We wanted to keep the natural flex through out the tail so you feel your board and its connection to the wave face, so we strategically ran the stripes of carbon fibre horizontal to the tail's rail line. Blended with standard four ounce weave with a strand of carbon fibre each centimetre, it's proven to be the perfect protection for our boards.

MEET THE SHAPER & FOUNDER - JAMIE CHEAL
The founding owner of Chilli Surfboards, Jamie Cheal, did his first top turn on a surfboard at the Gold Coast's Greenmount aged 13, and he's been surfing most days since.
In his late teens, Cheal moved to Sydney and started working at a surfboard factory, sanding and sweeping for next to nothing. In 1995, aged 22, Cheal shaped his first board. When he eventually took his creation to water he was more than a little surprised; It actually worked! "It was a total fluke," he laughs. "I shaped about 20 more after that first one and they all went like wet towels."
Cheal knew it wouldn't be a walk in the park, but with that first gem in mind, he persevered with shaping and not long afterwards, it started to pay off. Two years later, Chilli Surfboards was born in a small factory in Brookvale.
In the years that followed, demand for Cheal's boards grew and each week he produced more. Soon, demand was high and some of Australia's best surfers were riding Chilli Surfboards to victory. It wasn't long before World Tour surfers started asking Cheal for boards, too. In 2004, the dearly missed Andy Irons rode Chilli Surfboards in his successful campaign to claim a third world title.
Cheal loves seeing the best surfers in the world ride his boards but would take just as much pride in seeing one under your feet. That's why he's worked hard to create a model range that has something for everyone. Check them out on this site and find your next dream board.
