Tail slide, tail wips, airs and quick snaps – this board can do it all

Hi Todd!

Howz it going? It took a few sessions to get a good feel of the board but we need waves for that as well which have not been consistent over here. Yes this board is defiantly for advanced riders,

it turns on a dime with very little effort.

Tail slide, tail wips, airs and quick snaps

this board can do it all.

Still working on my airs but this board is the one to use. I took it out last Sunday when we got the good size west swell and

it responded well on a 6ft+ beach break condition.

Great job on the board Todd! Thanks!

Hey Todd, hope all is well with you and Charissa!

Gettin’ some good waves lately here in LA and

LOVING my 5′ 11″ Groveler Perf.

My favorite board yet.

I am still interested in getting one of those x-large poster/banners we were discussing when I came in to pick up my board.  Please let me know if we can still do this!   I will be in touch hopefully soon with another order for a new 6′ 1″ for those slightly bigger days.  Hope to hear from you soon and God bless!

Christian

Instead of pearling, not making waves, and if I do – riding white wash, I have for the first time managed to “go down the line”

Todd and Charissa,

I am loving my Rascall II.

Instead of pearling, not making waves, and if I do -

riding white wash,

I have for the first time managed to “go down the line”.

Thank you so much for heaps of fun in the surf.

Just out of curiosity (and potentially for future purchase) what is the Falcon all about, how does it differ from the Rascall II?

Cheers,

I am still looking really forward to my new G.4E that will soon be done.

Hey Todd,

I am still looking really forward to my new G.4E that will soon be done.

I just wanted to show you these pictures of me at that spot the finger i told you about.

I’m on the SR-71 in all these pics.

The board works great at

this place.

it paddles you like a dream… That´s true mate!!

Hello there!!!

Well, I´m lost of words… what can I say?
Everything is so perfect!: the way you send it (perfectly protected), the fins (really incredible!), the leash, the boardbag… and the board itself!!!
Hey Todd, I´m sure I´m gonna fly with the Twin Fang.

It is such a perfect shape!!

I really love the fins, they look like the dorsal fin of a reef shark… And the chekered pattern…
As soon as I surf with it I´ll tell how it goes.

THANKS GUYS!!
Aloha….

[the next day]

Hey people, this is not real… This afternoon I could surf the Twin Fang!!! Yeeeeeessss!!! Incredible as it appears! I just got it yesterday and today the first surfing session…

Do you really wanna know what do I think of the board??…
Surfing the Proctor Twin Fang is just insane!!
I´ve found the surfboard I was looking for. Because of the size, because of the thickness, because of the two fins system… because the professional way they made it!!

It is a kind of rocket, you know? It gives such a speed that you can get out the wave, ride the flat sea… and get home…I can go through the sections as I never did.

The cut-backs… they´re incredible!!.

That tail… why can it be so special?

Looks like the board is alive; so tame and so fast and maneuvrable at the same time. And, as his shaper says, it paddles you like a dream… That´s true mate!!

Tomorrow forecast bring us good news… It seems we´ll be able to ride it again… Yeah! They say I paid too much.

I say the board has been worth it.

Thanks Todd. Thanks for helping me to persevere as a mediterranean surfer. It´s difficult to surf here properly and now looks like I started to surf again. From now on, it will take me a long time to ride a thruster.
Thanks Charissa and thanks to all the Proctor Team.

As soon as I get some photograph/video I´ll send it.

Aloha,

surfboard review: custom twin fin retro fish surfboards

the Falcon is the best board I have ever ridden in my life!

Hey Todd and Charissa,

I just wanted to let you know that

the Falcon is the best board I have ever ridden in my life!

For the first couple of days, I took it into some smaller surf: mushy 2 to 3 feet.

It has extraordinarily fast paddling speed

which allowed me to pull into basically any wave I wanted.

It also picks up extraordinary speed in smaller waves like no other, allowing me to have a blast, even on the smallest days.

Today and the day before, I took the Falcon out into some real surf, from 5 feet to some 8 foot sets.

The board is absolutely ridiculous in larger surf.

I got so much speed down the line and pulled off

some of the best turns in my life today.

Although the waves today were not the best I have ridden, this session has been the best session ever, due to this spectacular board.
Thank you so much for shaping me an incredible board and providing excellent costumer service along the way.
I look forward to purchasing my next additions to my quiver from you and

I wish that every deserving surfer could experience

riding a Falcon because it is, and will remain my

favorite board.

Thanks again,

I’m in a confused state of euphoria

Dear Todd and Charissa,
This is Ahiena from Hilo, Hawaii. I got my 6′1″ Falcon about a month ago and have been riding it since then and

I’m so blown away by the board that

I’m in a confused state of euphoria -

almost lost as to my whereabouts! I’ve been surfing for about 15 years now, and boogie boarding 4 years before that. I grew up in the ocean and lived around the ocean all my life and rode everything from a piece of plywood to a couple of custom-made quivers.

I have to say that before I got the Falcon, I thought that in my life I’ve rode a handful magic boards.

But after riding the Falcon, I realize that I’ve only had one magic board besides the Falcon and it was a Channel Islands. The proxy s-glass floats me and my bigger frame like no other board has, especially at 6′1″!

And it puts me where I want to be on a wave

and whatever I imagine I want to do, it takes me there!

Thank you for the truly magic board – you’ve gained a lifetime customer. I’m already thinking about a big boy Greased Pig for our sloppy, mushy conditions out here in Hilo on the Big Island.

Mahalo nui Todd and the Proctor crew!
