Good morning Todd, it’s Dale Rhodes…how are you? It’s 10:00 on Tuesday. Happy Holidays. The board worked amazing. I didn’t get to ride it in any big surf….Saturday, West PDS was well overhead and I didn’t wanna go in it with that board until I got used to it. But

I rode it twice in waist to chest-high surf… and it’s very responsive, very fast, I love it.

I was able to acclimate to that board quite quickly. So I just wanna let you know I’m super impressed with the board, it works amazing. And I haven’t even ridden it in really good surf yet, so I think I’m in for a treat. But anyways, I just wanted to give you that feedback cuz I’m sure that you wanted to hear about it. So give me a call back because I want to order another one in another length. And that’s that. Hopefully you guys had a beautiful Christmas and I will talk to you later.

Thank you. Bye.

Props go out to Todd on his crazy 4-fin super speed monster……… It really holds in on the tight sections at PDS,and if you surf there u know what im talking about.

I knew on the 1st wave this board was for me and i hope others take note……..Very fast and loose..

Just what i needed………… Take care, Dale Rhodes

Hey Todd,

The Lil Rascal is insane! After picking it up at your shop

I surfed ankle-to-knee C-Street, and that thing just zoomed, just like the video on your site.

Never thought a big guy like me (6′2″ 185) could get speed like that on such weak little waves. Last month I took it (and the 6′5″ D.Y.L.) down to El Salvador for the last South of the fall. I rode the 6′5″ until the swell started to drop, then had three of the funnest days riding the Rascal on a waist high reef, having the time of my life flying down the line and ducking into little coverups while the rest of my bros just complained about the small surf;-)

The Rascal is truly a magic board.

I can feel that “bubble pillow” thing with the concaves.

One little pump and it just lifts and goes! So stoked on it!

I’m on the North Shore now for the rest of the month. My biggest problem has been reaching for the Rascal when the conditions call for a bigger board, but that thing is so fast, as long as I make the drop I can speed down the line!!!

Here are some pics from yesterday.

Thanks for making me a great board and Merry Christmas!

To the Proctors,

thank you for a unreal lil’ rascal. Got the board mid morning and unpacked it and found pro packing was used,no damage.

Surf was 3-5ft point break weak windswell and board was making sections and carving in ways that I could not believe.

You can feel the concaves working right off the bat and thickness to the advantage of speed and flow.

I will be ordering another one very soon.

Cheers, Chris Stanger

I’ve had my groveler IV.p for a while now, and I

just thought it was time to shout out a thanks for how insane it surfs.

I got it last winter, and when i buy another board soon i know i’ll be getting another proctor. i’m going to college in idaho right now, but i’m stoked to get back home and tear it up in nor cal this winter. thanks for the sick stick!

Duuuuude!
I can’t believe how great this board (Lil Rascal 6′1″x20″) works! I surfed 2 foot Oceanside yesterday and I felt almost like Jay Phillips:

catching waves outside with the longboaders, passing them, doing floaters and cutbacks on tiny waves.

Normally I would have gone home because it was so gutless and small, but I decided to put your “project” to the test. You passed!
A week ago I surfed Lowers and found, to my surprise, that the board worked equally as well backside. In some ways I even like it better because of the way it accelerates and snaps off the top.

The next day I was at walled, shoulder high Churches making sections no one else could. And my three friends said I was surfing better than ever.

The envy was thick. I’m still making adjustments for more in-the-pocket surfing but I have zero complaints. On several occasions, complete strangers have asked about the board.

Though I’d love to take credit and chalk it up to my surfing ability, the Lil Rascal has had an incredible affect on my surfing ability and stoke.

Don’t be surprised if you start getting calls from south Orange County.
Thanks for the insane board!

I love the new 5′11 Blackbird II (Quad) with the Parabolic Stringers!

Hi Guys,

Hope you are both doing well! Just thought I say hi and send you a few photos my friend Dan Snapped of me at Salt Creek this past December. ( I’m on a the 6′4 Ante-Up Quad)
Thanks again for the awesome boards,

I love the new 5′11 Blackbird II (Quad) with

the Parabolic Stringers!

It is hands down the most amazing board

I’ve ever ridden I can put it down.

I’ve been surfing it on everything from

sloppy 2ft days to well overhead days

and it can handle it all.

This past week I scored the biggest barrel I’ve ever been in and made it out clean Thanks again for your skills in the shaping room~
