Hey Todd & Charissa,

The waves of November and December at Salt Creek have proved no match for the tube threading ability of the Proxy 6′4″ Ante-UP Quad you shaped me!

The board is excellent and rides equally well as a thruster or quad.  I have run FCS: PC-5 quad set and the FCS: TC Aqualine 5 fin set as a thruster and quad. The PC-5 quad makes the board hold on anything and i’m taking off way deeper than I’ve ever pushed it and they seem to draw out your turns (I prefer these on the more powerful days.) The Aqualine’s make the board much looser and even though your riding a 6′4″ it turns on dime and feel’s like a 6′0″.

The board is the best i’ve ever ridden!

Thanks for listening to the little guys out there and treating us all like family!

Many tubes!

I’ve been working with Todd for a little over a year now and the best way I can sum him up,

“He’s a master craftsman as well as a consummate professional!”

Over the years, I’ve had the blessed opportunity to work with some of the world’s best surfing shapers.

Aside from Todd Proctor being one of these world’s best shapers, the attribute that stands out the most

is the fact that he is willing to listen to you

as the client and make you exactly what you want.

No ego with this guy, just awesome custom building!

All of my boards from Todd work amazingly well

but there’s definately a couple of them that I consider my magic carpets…

6′ 6″ – 6 channel swallow tail:

This board has turned out to be my all around work horse.

It’s the fastest,most responsive board I’ve ever owned!

The thing about this board is the fact that it’s so alive

in small waves but yet it maintains control in punchier surf.

I can push this board in the 7 foot Hawaiian scale with utmost

confidence.

7′ 2″ and 7′ 6″  - sharp pin tail:

I’ve been working on this design for nearly 2 decades.

Once again, the great thing about Todd is his lack of ego and his willingness to learn new ideas and

concepts. The concept with these two boards is thicker, fuller rails with plenty

of old school V for the bottom design. These boards are excedingly fast and

stable and not only do they work great at Pipe and sunset but they work in

powerful surf world wide.

Todd,

I wanted to call right away, cause I just got out of the water & I got to ride the 7′2″.
Everyone was crowding the right @ Backdoor,
and I saw some good ones nobody was going for @ Pipe, so I swung into a few.

On the first wave, I took off & thought I was way too deep,
so I railed into it a little &

felt the board take-off like I’ve never

felt a board accelerate in the barrel before.

I’m stoked,

we are on to a good track already

with these first boards…

not bad for just talking over what I needed on the phone.
