Chilli - Black Vulture
All Rounder
The Black Vulture is a versatile model that team rider Lee Wilson put to the test. Lee fell in love with his 5´5 Black Vulture and claims it´s one of the fastest boards he has ever ridden. Let´s break it down:
The Black Vulture has a fuller nose, added foam under the chest and a wider outline. The wide point is a little further forward too, giving it great foam under the chest and front foot when your surfing, also making it a wave catching machine (much similar foam distribution to the Rare Bird). We then gave it a bump swallow tail to pull the tail in and give it drive. Combined with a single concave to vee out through the tail. Resulting in a wave catching machine that turns on a dime.
We recommend riding it the same or slightly shorter than the Rare Bird, or your desired volume.
Our team has surfed it as a twin w/ center stabiliser and with a traditional thruster set up and found gold in both.
