A board that has been slightly modified over the past year through the Project Black program. Tried, tested and loved by the team, Chilli was excited to release it and knew you were going to love it too.

The original cad file was named ai8curve.cet and has a creation date of 12/02/2003 - it sat in the archives of James' Macbook. This model back then (named A2 Curve) was developed with the help of Andy Irons who rode and loved the board throughout 03 & 04. Since then, machines and software quickly became outdated. With new technology James has resurrected some old faithful files, this being one of them. He tweaked it with a modern day outline, concave and with a few minor adjustments by the team, the board came to life.

It sits in Chilli's Premium Performance category for a reason, the A2 likes to be pushed hard, it drives through critical sections with precision and is as smooth on rail through turns as you'd expect from a board ridden by AI. With a reasonably gentle rocker, single concave and tight squash with tail lift you can really give it some.

The A2, a shortboard you need in your quiver. ® Chilli Surfboards
