it’s the fastest board I have ever owned.

I love it!

I’m looking forward to purchasing

another Titanium Series Board in the Future.

Getting better all the time. Always stoked because of you. Here are a few new pics of my progress.

Todd is my Shaper, he will always be now.

I put my trust in him after I just got back

into this sport and man…. he did it right.

I guess that’s what has blown me away the most.

I’m 47 years old, been away from surfing for 25 years (feeling very lost) and Todd told me “This board will take you to the next level” I trusted him, I still can’t believe how it has all unfolded. You have seen the pics. I know I’m not a shredder by any means.

I’m stoked more then you know to be surfing as well as I am and getting better all the time at my age and time away from it.

I hope I pull my 1st Air before I hit 50

HAHA!  Hmmm I guess I can make that a goal LOL!

Maybe that’s it too, Not only is it a top quality board, Todd is top quality in picking the right board for someone feeling lost in the mass of boards to pick from. I felt like a person not just a bunch of numbers.

If there is a word beyond Stoked, I’m that.

Hello Todd/Charissa,
Just wanted to write, after a long delay (bought the board Oct 09), to tell you how much I love my hybrid performance funboard.

Returning to surfing after 20+ years,

this board has been a godsend.

I’ve been riding it a lot these past 10 months and it goes like a dream.

Fast, easy to paddle, super light and

full of life for a board of this size. (7’6″ x 21 1/4 x 3)

its been a great groveler in our weak S. China sea surf – espec for a big guy, beginner/intermediate surfer like myself (6’1″ 195 lbs). When the waves pick up the board is just incredibly fast – it gets much more maneuverable as the wave power picks up.

Even on small waves I can just whip the board around,

pull deep carves and pivot on the tail with ease.

Something I could never do on a similar size poly. And I can catch almost anything on this baby.

It has also held up to some punishment.

With the proxy titanium and kevlar the board

still has no visible dings, no noticeable

pressure dings on the deck, despite my

knocking it around more than once.

And even though the colors weren’t exactly what I ordered, it turns out I love the look and design more than what I requested!

All I can say is your design, service and obvious commitment to quality has made my re-entry to surfing super enjoyable. Next year I’m seriously considering getting my first shortboard from you – maybe something in the 6’4″x 2 1/2 x 19 range. Of course I’ll seek your advice first – like I did with this one.

Big thanks once again for helping my surfing progress,

and for making my time in the water

even more fun and rewarding.

Now, if I can only do something about our crap summer surf. But winter’s coming…

All the Best,
Norman, Hong Kong

Hey Todd. Thanks for the input. It really helped me. Here is what I’m thinking. I guess I should stay to the more specifically designed guns for the bigger stuff. Here’s my reasoning for saying that and what I’m trying to put together.

I have a 6’0″ El Pavote.

6’2″ G4E.

6’2″ SR-71.6’4″ Blackbird.

All by the way are out of this world.

I will never buy from anyone else,

you got me dialed in to a T.

So my El Pavote as I see it has my smaller wave base covered, the G4E and Blackbird has evrything above that , and the SR-71 is for the Bread and Butter.

By the way I was in Puerto with that board

and it was solid 8-10 ft and

me and that board were one from the first wave.

Please keep that one on file for sure.

Me and my wife travel frequently and I have family in Hawaii so I would like to have some boards built for over there and Indo.

Pretty much whereever we go I want to have something I can go to.That said, I think I have my shortboard side of it all complete for the most part. My Blackbird being 6’4″ is the biggest out of your boards. And going to different places especially Hawaii I am going to need bigger boards, Bottom Line.

So I will need an Ante Up

I’m thinking how Tamayo had his set up.

Size I will leave to you. I might even need two. One bigger than the other. Im thinking 6’7″ and one maybe 6’10″. I will need one for when Pipe starts showing its colors, here I’m thinking Pipecleaner, maybe 7’2″ish. And one for big sunset/Pipe for here I was leaning twards the West Peak, maybe 7’10″-8’4.

And finally the gnarly Big Daddy for Da Bay/Mavs…

here goes back to the one you have on your showroom wall, the 10’2″.If you think that particular board would suit me I forget the width and thickness of it but atleast 3 plus inches thick for sure. In otherwords I dont want to big of a gap in the size’s of boards I have. If the surfs there then I wanna be prepared and I wanna do it on one of your boards. I like what you stand for and I think your the best shaper around so thats where Im putting my money. And these boards, call me particular but I like my boards to be as strong as possible(Super Duty) if you will.

Boards arent cheap and I want not only longevity with them but durability. Albeit I understand if I put it in the wrong place that not even triple 6oz. e glass will hold it intact. But you get where Im coming from.So In a nutshell that is what I’m looking to accomplish with the remainder of my quiver. Tell me what you think and I hope that helps you into understanding what Im trying to do. All in all I just want the board I need for when the time arises to be there in my quest for the ultimate ride. So we could even try out like SR-71/AnteUp or things like that. Or even take from what you have done with the Monsta(Lower entry and increased numbers off the tail) into all of them. Anyway dont wanna take anymorer of your time but let me know whaen you get around to it. Have a blessed day.

Hey Charissa, this is Luciano.  It was great meeting the both of you, I
feel truly blessed.

BTW, that Big Chief/Greased Pig fusion

worked wonders yesterday!!!

It paddles like a dream, I can get into waves

SSSOOOO much easier

and although it took me about ten waves

to get used to it, IIITTT RRRIIIIPPPSSS!!

I was shocked, actually, at the “feel” this board has, I know it has a lot to do with the tail shape and extra width, along with the double concave and the rail geometry======

MAGICAL!!!

Thanks again, LS

Todd, the new era greased pig is the best board ever made.

Did you hear it squealing at Malibu this morning?

It comes off the top insane carries a rail

and drives like no tomorrow.

Thanks for such a sick one,

The G4 is absolutely the best.

Surfed overhead barrels all weekend and its unreal.

Much more active/responsive than the SR-71. Took a few hrs to dial it in. 
Everyone who sees the boards, both the artwork and board design, are overwhelmed with how great they look.
