Hey Todd, its been a while since we talked and since then I’ve got some magic waves on the SR-71. I’ve mostly been surfing Pismo, shell Beach and Morro Bay, but occasionally I’ve been able to make it out to Jalama but the swell has been pretty insignificant over the summer.

Overall I’ve got some great waves on the board and its really improved my surfing.

I’ve been looking at the Blackbird lately and I’ve wanted

another board in my quiver that would let me boost out of sections and really tear up the waves.

I was wondering if I could get an estimate on a custom 5’8 Blackbird with some sort of paint job that I’m not sure about yet. I’m looking forward to hearing from you again,

and thanks again for the sick SR-71.

Charissa,

Thought you would like to know that I absolutely love my Proctor board, and just wanted to take a second out of my day to thank you and Todd for it.  It’s such a faithful board, and I have been having so much fun on it lately.

It’s made perfectly to suit my needs and I just want you to know how much I appreciate it.

If you have a second, check out my blog and you can see how I have been riding–I posted a video!!!!

Love, Kat

Todd and Charissa,

Well this email is horribly late but I blame that solely on the board you made me.  The lime green 5’9″ x 19″ 7/8 x 2″ 3/4 Rascal II you built for me is in a word…. “insane”.  I have literally ridden it for 4 weeks straight every single day of the week and am continually impressed with how it performs.

It has turned around what would normally be a boring surf sessions in gutless surf into killer sessions.

The board just kind of lifts up underneath your feet giving you a gliding/ skimming feeling that I have not experienced before.

My surfing has never looked or felt better and I can’t thank you enough for that!

I know that this board is reported as a “small wave / gutless surf” board, but I have to say

it is one of the most versatile boards
I have ever ridden.

With the 5 fin setup, I can make adjustments for when faces start jacking up to give the board more bite into the wave (It ripped right through pumping head high to HH+ waves).  The waves have gotten quite a bit bigger the last two days and I moved back to my standard shortboard……

I lasted for all of 4 rides before I pulled the Rascal II out again.

That would be my only complaint about this board,

I want to ride it in everything!!

I will definitely be calling upon you in the future for another board.

Thanks again to both of you!  Todd for making the board I always wanted and Charissa for being hands down the coolest person to do business with.
