Hi guys, saw the videos and glad I already got a Monsta.

It’s been pretty small in Santa Cruz

but got  a couple of decent waves

and felt how responsive the board is.

This will be my “go to” board all winter long.

If it gets really big I can also bring out the single fin Todd made me.Hope to visit you both in person late fall this year.
Best Regards, John Eckardt

Just want to let you know that I love this board after 1st trip out. I used it as a quad. Next time I will surf it as a Thruster.

It is so responsive, it went any place I wanted it to go and quick.

It felt like I was on ice it was so fast on my first wave.

These pics were only from the inside section, the wife didn’t get any bigger wave pics
: (   They were breaking 5 to 8′

You said this board would take me to the next level.

It has already.

I feel now that I CAN. I am so STOKED that you made me such a SICK board. I love it. I love you for it. I will see you soon. I will bring more Tito’s for you two. THANKS my brother! You did it right again.

Loads of speed on mushy waves.

This 47 year old feels like a teen

out there again HAHA!

howdy todd and charissa,

I’ve only been on the new rascal II for 2 days now,

but i wanted to take a second to tell you why

it’s already the best board I’ve ever had.

In short, the rascal II has given me hope

that my best days of surfing are still ahead of me.

let me explain…  I started surfing at 10yrs old and I surfed frequently until the age of 18.  at that point, I was very happy with how my surfing was progressing, but then i went to college, medical school, and residency training, and

the next thing I knew I was 31 yrs old, 30 lbs heavier and

had barely surfed at all in 13 years.

But then i moved to San Francisco, and, all of the sudden, I had the opportunity to start surfing consistently again.  that said,

i thought  that i could just buy a board and

i’d pick up surfing at exactly the level where i left off…

things didn’t quite work out that way though.

throughout the last year, it was becoming increasingly frustrating to paddle out day after day and not be able to surf as well as i remembered myself surfing when i was 18.  So, I made excuses for my poor performance; i told myself that the waves i was surfing just weren’t good for high performance type surfing and that i just wasn’t surfing on the right boards.  But one year and 4 surfboards later, doubt started creeping in and I was starting to feel that maybe it wasn’t the waves or the boards, perhaps it was just me, maybe the combination of my 13 year hiatus, my advancing age, and my worsening physical condition had amounted to some absolute diminution of talent;

I was starting to feel that i just wasn’t a good surfer

anymore and that feeling was becoming extremely disheartening.

…then, 2 days ago, I got my custom Proxy Rascal II,

and everything’s changed.

now, all of the sudden, i’m flying

down sections with confidence, making tight turns, busting out and sliding the tail, and i’ve even boosted a couple of airs (and I’ve been doing all of this in some pretty terrible waves).

For the first time in a very long time, i feel like

progression is inevitable and i’m happy again with my surfing,

and that is why the rascal II is the best board i’ve ever ridden.

sorry for being so verbose, but i can’t help but feel compelled to let you know how much i love the board.

consider  me a customer for life.

Thanks

Hey Todd, its been a while since we talked and since then I’ve got some magic waves on the SR-71. I’ve mostly been surfing Pismo, shell Beach and Morro Bay, but occasionally I’ve been able to make it out to Jalama but the swell has been pretty insignificant over the summer.

Overall I’ve got some great waves on the board and its really improved my surfing.

I’ve been looking at the Blackbird lately and I’ve wanted

another board in my quiver that would let me boost out of sections and really tear up the waves.

I was wondering if I could get an estimate on a custom 5’8 Blackbird with some sort of paint job that I’m not sure about yet. I’m looking forward to hearing from you again,

and thanks again for the sick SR-71.
