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 you're surfing, also making it a wave catching machine (much similar foam distribution to the Rare Bird). Chilli then gave it a bump swallow tail to pull the tail in and give it drive combined with a single concave 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. The team has surfed it as a twin w/ center stabiliser and with a traditional thruster set up and found gold in both. ® Chilli Surfboards
