About Chill’s Programs Revolving around a core value-driven curriculum, Chill programs consist of experiential learning activities, reflection, and discussion, paired with boardsport lessons. Chill’s six core values provide young people with a framework for learning and growth, supported through on-board progression and adult mentorship. Chill removes all barriers to accessing boardsports by providing participants with everything they need to get after it, at absolutely no cost. New skills gained through boardsport progression and core value exploration are then directly applied to everyday life, challenging youth to step out of their comfort zone – both on and off their board.
