The ghost is fast, freaky fast. That was the first thing I noticed about it. I also noticed how smooth it turns from rail to rail.

I’ve ridden a couple of these shapes and I really enjoy how effortlessly you can surf them.

You don’t need to pump, chop, hop, or flail to generate speed.



The shape seems to do all the work for you,

as if its trying to help you create a smoother style.

I’ve noticed a big change in the way I surf since riding The Ghost. Todd noticed it too when we were in Peru.

It’s helped me link my turns into one continuous motion

without the wishy-washy pumps and hops in between maneuvers.



The width runs a little higher towards the nose, sort of similar to Da Monsta but yet has a standard shortboard size.
That really helps me with two things: when doing airs or throwtails and my weight is on my front foot, and second,
I can take this board out in waves knee high to double head-high.

It rides responsive like Da Monsta but feels more reliable in large surf because there is more board under your feet.
Needless to say, I’ll continue ordering Ghosts because I love em’ and I know what I’m going to get every time.
Todd, keep on pumping these puppies out cause’ I can’t get enough!

Todd put 5 fin boxes in a Lil’ Rascal board.
And I rode it as a thruster for a bit. And it felt good…
and today I wanted to try the board as a quad.

So I put the same size fins in all four places and the board was so fast and held in.

I could go at a section and push as hard as I could and it did not slide out.

Epic

Can’t wait for the next session

Todd Proctor…whatup….dude, that board is magical. It’s one of my favorite boards I’ve got definitely.
That thing’s riding so good, I’m so pumped on it.
Yea, I was stoked I got that shot on ESM and the one on Surfline…
the waves were soooo good here for a couple days.
Hope all is well. Give me a ring back whenever you get a chance.

Hey Charissa and Todd,

This past weekend was the Christian Surfing Federations /Surfride Season Championship contest and after a long day of heats and battling it out,

I was left standing as the season champ, marking my 3rd Season title. I am soooo stoked.

The contest was held in fun, waist to chest high, clean surf at the San Clemente pier with a pretty large audience of competitors and spectators on hand.

I was rocking the G4C nearly exclusively, but had the El Pavote and G4E on hand in case it was needed.

People knew where my board support and allegiance was big time and I just wanted to thank you so much for everything.  I couldn’t have done this without your amazing boards and I hope I’ve made you proud!

I’ll send pics as I get them. I  am also going to get a duplicate of the trophy made to send you guys, too. I can’t thank you enough for the wonderful support!  I am soooooo stoked to be representing Proctor Surfboards!

I won the custom Proctor surfboard, but don’t feel comfortable taking it for free from you guys.

Take care and God Bless,
