TOP 10 BEST-SELLING SURFBOARD MODELS OF 2017: #1 Rare Bird
posted on Thursday, February 01, 2018
A board that screams versatility
Here's your Number 1! Our Top 10 list of best-selling surfboard models of 2017 comes to closure with the one and only #1 Rare Bird by Chilli Surfboards.
After years of building the Birds Eye and Toucan Chilli models for all types of waves and surfers comes the Rare Bird. It features the rocker and bottom from the Toucan. Single concave from the front foot back to a double concave and slight vee out through the back fin for easy transition. Wide point a little forward in this board allows a really nice rail line that creates drive. Combining that with a medium rail and pulled in thumb tail, this board screams versatility. Quin fin setup has proven a huge plus with this model allowing it to perform in small stuff right up to head high barrels. Chilli basically built this board from Mitch Coleborn's favorite Toucan in which he rode in a 5'4'' with a 5'6'' width and thickness. To break that down Chilli suggests dropping 1-2 inches from the Toucan or 4-5 inches from your shortboard.
