James Cheal
Chilli
James Cheal, founder of Chilli Surfboards, did his first top turn at 13 on the Gold Coast and has been surfing almost every day since. In 1995, at age 22, he shaped his first surfboard. Despite some early struggles, Cheal's persistence paid off, and by 1997, he launched Chilli Surfboards in a small factory in Brookvale.

As demand for his boards grew, top Australian surfers began riding them, leading to World Tour surfers taking notice. In 2004, the legendary Andy Irons rode a Chilli board to win his third world title. While Cheal loves seeing his boards under the feet of the world's best surfers, he 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.

TAX REFUND - TAX FREE SHOPPING

Did you know that if you reside outside the European Union you are entitled to a refund of the VAT (Value Added Tax) paid in our store?

When paying for purchases over 61,50 EUR, ask for a Global Blue Tax Free Form and, on the day of departure, get everything taken care of at the airport.


Tax Free Shopping in 3 steps:

1. Form Issuance: when shopping in our store, you will pay full amount (including VAT) and get a Global Blue Tax-Free Form. Fill out the form with the required information.

2. Customs Validation: at the airport, when leaving the EU, go to the nearest Customs or self- validation Kiosk and present your filled-out Tax Free Form, passport, and original purchase receipts for validation. Goods should be kept unused and available for inspection.

3. VAT Tax Refund: add your payment details online to receive the refund automatically. If you prefer, find a nearby Refund Office displaying the Global Blue star logo, present your validated Tax Free Form and passport, and receive your refund in cash. The refund paid is the VAT value deducted from Global Blue's service fee.
