The Whopper Extra Cheese by Bilt Surfboards is the result of years of refinement, designed to maximize speed, control, and fun in any condition.
This fish-style board combines elements from various designs to create a shape that paddles with ease and maintains effortless speed, regardless of wave quality. With a super flat bottom, extra-wide tail block, and a parallel outline, the Whopper Extra Cheese generates and holds speed naturally. Unlike traditional boards that require the apex of the wave to gain momentum, this model flies down the line even in weak or mushy conditions.
- Speed-Focused Design: A flat bottom and wide tail block create unmatched glide and momentum.
- Versatile Performance: Excels in everything from soft, high-tide waves to weak, gutless surf.
- Refined Over 20 Years: A well-balanced blend of tradition and modern innovation.
- Maximum Fun Factor: More speed means more fun, turning even average sessions into unforgettable rides.
Designed for surfers who want effortless speed, smooth transitions, and high-performance fun, the Whopper Extra Cheese delivers a ride that feels fast, loose, and controlled in all conditions.

About Bilt Surfboards – The ‘Only 3’ Philosophy
Bilt Surfboards was founded on a simple question: If a surfer could only buy three more boards in their lifetime, what would they be?
Over the past five years, the surf industry has become like fast fashion—constantly chasing trends and overcomplicating what should be simple. Surfing is meant to be fun. It’s not about reinventing the wheel; it’s about designing boards that work—boards that maximize time in the water and the enjoyment of every session.
The idea for the "Only 3" concept was born on a surf trip to Mexico. California had been flat for months, and when a long-awaited swell finally appeared, a last-minute invite led to a frantic scramble for the perfect quiver. The trip ended up being 1-2 foot for an entire week, leaving a bag full of useless boards. That experience sparked a realization—why carry a dozen boards when just three well-designed shapes could handle anything from Malibu to Cloudbreak?
So, Bilt refined it down to the essentials:
✅ A shortboard – refined from Bilt’s original Spit Fire, with added volume, a round tail, and a flatter entry rocker, now known as the Big Mac.
✅ A fish – originally the BW Fish, designed over 20 years ago to help transition off longboards while keeping paddle power. It was modernized and reborn as the Whopper Extra Cheese.
✅ A mid-length – built from the best designs across the industry and tested at J-Bay, earning its name as the Double Double after proving itself on the first wave.
The Bilt Surfboards Design Philosophy
🌊 Foam is Your Friend – More volume doesn’t mean poor performance. Speed equals maneuverability, and the right rail line and curve make it possible to ride more waves and have more fun.
🚀 Speed is Everything – The key to keeping you in the water, especially on those poor-to-fair days, is a board that flies in all conditions.
🏄♂️ Surf More, Train Less – The best way to improve is to ride more waves, not take surf fitness classes. A board with a bit more volume will get you into waves sooner and let you surf longer.
At Bilt, the goal is to make high-performance, fun-first boards that paddle long and surf short. Every design is built for speed, ease, and versatility—so you spend less time worrying about what board to ride and more time riding waves.
