Practicality for Travel When travelling, you cant always pack multiple boards. The FAD3R a serve as a one size fits all, capable of handling both mid- sized waves and the heavier waves typical of many overseas surf spots. This board was R&Dd by many of our surfers, from Moana at Pipeline, Balaram at Teahupoo, to Kobi and Saxon competing on the Australian regional WQS. It was the board these surfers gravitated too when the waves got a bit too big for their regular shortboard. The FAD3R is to be ridden slightly up from your shortboard in volume and length. If you normally ride a 29L shortboard, the stock 61 FAD3R at 30.5L will be the go. As we know, larger waves demand respect and the right equipment to handle their power and speed. Surfing a bigger-volumed surfboard helps you rise to the challenge with greater confidence, efficiency and control. The FAD3R is the perfect companion for intermediate to advanced surfers looking for a board that elevates their experience without compromising comfort or ease.

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.
