Womp Womp a Roo Roo!
The carbon footprint
I just got from you guys
is the most magical thing I have
ever surfed.
I’m not even sure it’s a surfboard.
It feels like a back to the future hovercraft skateboard.
So fun.
Thanks!

Update and R&D:
The board actually “loads up” and when I feel like smoking the section I point downt the line and the board releases its energy projecting down the line.
Overall, its pretty crazy a board can have
that much feel in waist high creepers.
that board ran really good mate…..

yeah Todd….
The new boards are amazing I just got back from the goldcoast I got some sick waves.
I have only been riding the Blackbird and the groveller so far.
The groveller is like a skate board
so loose and fast,
I have been shredding the Bondi shorey’s on it.
The blackbird held in so good on the more punchy waves
at d bah and snapper
I could push it as hard as I wanted and it would hold its rail…
EPIC STUFF!
I will let you know how the rest go when I get some more swell…
Im going to go do some whip in airs this week so I should get some nice shots.
No worries about the clothes thanks for the boards!!!!!!!

Here I am in Bali…yew!! Jarrah Tutton
I could go at a section and push as hard as I could and it did not slide out.
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

Lovin’ the New Quad Performance Longboard
Larry explaining to Todd why he’s so stoked on the new Quad Fin Performance Longboard they collaborated on….
“It’s my favorite longboard I’ve ever had….
when I lay it on rail it just accelerates through the turns
& it noserides insane.”

This is the best investment I have made on surf boards
Hi guys!
I just want say thank you so much for making my magic board. I have to say my surfing has bumped up a lot, the board is exactly how I wanted it as far as shape, size, and to improve my surfing.
I knew from my 1st conversation over the phone with Todd that he had a passion to help surfers with their surfing
because he took a lot of time to list and explain the science of surfboard making.
This is the best investment I have made on surf boards. I look forward to ordering more magic boards from Proctor Surfboards.

Hi Todd! Thanks again for making the magic board!
This board is a hybrid of a Black Bird & G-4E for sure!

the 6′5″ Groveller IV/D.Y.L. quad
Hi Todd,
I’m loving the boards you’ve shaped me, especially the 6′5″ Groveller IV/D.Y.L. quad. It’s really quick and snappy.
In good chest to head high waves it makes me feel like a better and faster surfer than I really am!
I’d like to talk with you about a lil rascal quad. What length/width do you think would work best for me? I’m 6′2″ tall and 185 lbs. My regular shortboard is your 6′5″ x 19 5/8 and it works great for me unless the waves are really mushy, then I go to a thicker, wider and flatter hybrid shortboard/fish which is also a 6′5″.
For the rascal, I’m thinking in the range of 5′11″ to 6′2″, but I guess it depends on the width and thickness so I want to leave it up to your judgement.
I’d like to go with your epoxy again, it’s amazingly durable (I STILL haven’t had a real ding on my 6′5″ in a year and a half!!!). I want to do a deck patch under my front foot.
I think I will finally break down and get some color on this board, maybe some kind of crazy orange/yellow/red/black mix or maybe blue and yellow, but I don’t have anything specific in mind here, so go nuts and make it look rad!
I’m available Friday anytime between noon and 5 PM if you have time for a quick call then, I think it will only take a couple minutes to talk through the details, then I’ll put down a deposit.
