I look at this board as a true step to take me to the next level and thats what I’ve been searching for.

Todd, that new Accelerator you shaped me is sick!

You are a true craftsman it shows in your boards as well as your artwork

rob kenworthy titanium series acceleratorI cant thank you enough.

I look at this board as a true step to take me to the next level and thats what I’ve been searching for.

As you know I’ve ridden all the top shapers boards out there and the difference with you is being able to be in direct contact with you, as well as your commitment to producing the board I was looking for. Thanks for walking it like you talk it, you and Charissa are really cool people.

My only regret is not contacting your company a few years ago.

When I get my SR71 I want to leave this board with you , so you can ride to see the tweaks we made to it. Just keep in mind you will probably have to pry it out of my hands.

Thanks again and God bless you and your family.

It’s already been a great match for me surfing the beach breaks around SLO

Todd:

I just wanted to write to say thanks…huge…

I was in your shop a few weeks ago on a Saturday…I ended up buying the 6′2″ accelerator.  This is my first true shortboard and I have been nothing but psyched.

It’s already been a great match for me surfing

the beach breaks around SLO this time of year.

I’m already looking forward to buying my next board from you…maybe a “good waves” board for this winter!!!  You’ll have to give me your recommendation when the time comes.

I’m also going to bring my girlfriend in towards the beginning of September to order a longboard for her.  I was telling you about her when I was in last time.  It’s her b-day and it’s time to get her a board of her own!

I hope all is well.  And thanks again.

Best,

The Lil’ Rascal is a blast!

Todd,

The Lil’ Rascal is a blast! My wife said she’s never seen
me surf better than I am on my Lil’ Rascal.
It’s the best board I’ve ever used.

If you want to improve on what you’re doing in the water, I recommend it!

Most importantly thought, it is freaking fast!

The Rascal was a blast in Panama

Hello Charissa and Todd,

I just got back from Panama. Thanks for the update. I can’t believe the board’s almost ready. That was quick. I can’t wait to try it out.

P.S. The Rascal was a blast in Panama, rode it everday for 2 weeks as the swell never got over head high. Lovin’ it.

Thanks again,

gets into the waves nice and early and charges fast with the nose eagerly passing through the sections

Hi Todd/Charissa,

The board was delivered on my doorstep on Wednesday. Amazingly there was also a clean chest high swell running at one of my favorite breaks!

I’m very lucky to get a new board and use it the same day in inconsistent Bermuda.

The board paddles amazingly well and gets into the waves nice and early and charges fast with the nose eagerly passing through the sections.

It rides exceedingly well on the faces and is very loose rail to rail.

It has done everything Todd said it would do for me and I’m really looking forward to getting it out in the looming hurricane swells!

Please thank Todd for exceeding my expectations

and providing a custom service with the upmost integrity!   Have a great weekend.

the concept board that you made me has improved my surfing immeasurably

Todd, first I’d like to give you feedback about the concept board you made me a little over a year ago.

Todd, the concept board that you made me

has improved my surfing immeasurably.

I’m the guy who, because of a bad lower back, has to knee paddle and pop up from my knees in one motion (which takes pressure off my lower back).

You listened to my unusual (re-invented old-school) style of surfing,

and made an 8′ concept board for me by combining different parts from four of your existing board designs.

It was a masterful creation on your part,

allowing me to easily catch a wide variety of waves.

I’m sure you’ve heard this before, but your patience in taking the time to listen to my unique surfing needs and your creativity in designing what

I am convinced is the perfect board for me &

has brought a tremendous amount of happiness to my life.

I can’t thank you enough.

This thing works well for me in all conditions from small, fun waves, to peppy Santa Clara river mouth, to well overhead Pt Dume.

Todd,

Just writing to thank you for helping me take my surfing to the next level.
I now thankfully own three custom proctors surfboards.

Today,

I especially thank you for what has come to be

my go to board for

almost any conditions:  The Rascal.

I thought it was going to

mainly be the small wave board.

Boy was I wrong.

If I am not sure how the surf is going to be, (never relying 100% on the reports as we all know) I grab the rascal.

Why?

I know it won’t let me down.

This thing works well for me in all conditions from small, fun waves, to peppy Santa Clara river mouth, to well overhead Pt Dume.

Cheers to the shaper who really works with the surfer. ( Not just pros)

Best regards,

the board that you shaped for me is everything that I could have wanted

Hey Todd….. Well Todd what can I say the board that you shaped for me is

everything that I could have wanted and truly is a magic board!

The air brush work turned out great and I really like the gun metal grey color of the board. The board is a rocket Todd! I find myself being able to surf the wave top to bottom and really link turns together where before I was always looking for speed this board gains speed through every turn. The fact that the board is is so light, strong, and precise blows my mind.

After surfing my magic board that you shaped, I feel like I have been stuck surfing in the 80’s!

Your boards and the technology that you are incorporating into the flexible epoxy is amazing! I am sold to say the least and I do not hesitate to show and educate my friends and folks that I work with about your boards and how far a head of the rest that you shapes are!

The reason it took so long to reply to you and give you some feed back is because the waves have really been lacking on the southeast coast of NC. We are all really disappointed that we have yet to get a real winter swell! It has not been bigger than a very weak head high wave. I cannot wait to get the board into some waves with a little more juice behind them so that I can let loose! Don’t get me wrong even in the small crap knee – waist I can surf the board no problem! The swells that we have been getting are usually waist to shoulder with not to much power, but

the Groveler has no problem finding speed and busting the fins out the back!

Well Todd thank you again so much for shaping me a magic board I look forward to getting many more boards shaped by you, you are the man!

Happy Surfing,
