Charissa,

Please pass this feedback on to Todd…

The pavote has been awesome.

It’s exactly what I wanted.

The rascal had a bit too much volume in the nose and I needed something more aggressive.

Problem solved.

The dimensions are perfect.

I’ll definitely order another one.

Thanks!

Todd,

The 5’9″ Pavote with the scooped deck I got from you like a month or so ago is working insane! I think I like it better than the one I ruined right before I got this this one.

So FAST, its ridiculous!

Paddles great, drivey, responsive and snappy. Makes me rip:)

I find myself going vertical

with power

in weak mushy waves

which wasn’t the easiest thing to do on my regular shortboard cuz of the lack of speed. It just goes where I want/look on the wave.

I’m lovin this turkey.

Thanks Todd for such a killa board!

Surfed small n mushy el Porto today and was having a blast flying over sections on the turkey. It’s really snappy, turns tight in small waves and it loves going vertical. Pockety yet lots of speed and glide down the line. I’m stoked, thanks guys.

Apache Proxy with parabolic channels: 5’11″ x 20 1/4″ x 2 3/8″

The El Pavote I think is a more progressive feeling Falcon.

It has a bit more drive off the bottom

and is more responsive in the pocket.

It seems to do both of these things without giving up all the advantages of the falcon.

It still is great though the flat sections

and a great board for nearly all conditions

but really shines at the points…..
