The Salt Gypsy Chi Chi aims to improve your wave count, it has a huge range. This board has the rocker tuned for a shortboard, and Salt Gypsy have dropped the volume per size ratio so it fits within the Salt Gypsy mandate to suit women’s smaller frames. It’s a fast board that offers plenty of flow, and is the perfect choice for maximising your wave count even when the conditions aren’t perfect.

•3 Fin Set-up
• Nose and tail dimensions at 12″ are the same, creating a larger sweet spot, and a more stable planning zone.
• The full nose further adds to the stability, and the tail allows the width to extend further back, while still achieving the smooth transitions between turns that a round tail is famous for.
• With an emphasis on everyday conditions; flat equals flow, so the Chi Chi will slide into waves with ease, and maintain its speed over dead sections with minimal effort.
• Slight lift in the nose and tail will satisfy the more experienced rider looking for a summer groveller.
• Subtle yet effective, the slight concave up front creates lift when taking off, then a double concave starting in the mid zone leads into a shallow rolled vee off the tail.
• This bottom combination maintains exceptional speed in softer waves, yet provides a nice balance of control versus quick turning response when pivoting right off the tail.
• The Chi Chi is fast from the second you get to your feet, and super easy to turn.
