Stoked surfer reports: this just in >> “Hey Charissa/Todd, Gotta tell you about how well the HPLB has been going. I love that board so much. Had it out in this last Big swell. Had the board in some serious overhead sets.  This board has helped me get real good at high-lining and making sections. Had the most insane drop on a massive set, on the bottom turn, i'm looking up at the wave just throwing so hard. The fin/rails bite and boom, I'm high in the face hitting the lip and making the section going so fast. Made three insane sections on that 250 meter ride. This board has grown with my surfin just like you said it would. LOVE IT!” -earl. 47/6’0”/205lb 9'0" x 22 5/8" x 3 1/8" #proctorperformancelongboard #surferfeedback https://www.instagram.com/p/CCgvSkpnUC7/?igshid=1fhmqmfazicqf

Stoked surfer reports: this just in >> “I could not be happier with this board.  I smile every time I look at it.  It's been in a dream in the water.  Every board I've ever gotten in the past has had some sort of a learning curve as I figure out its quirks but from my first sesh with this board it felt like I'd already ridden it for years.  Almost all of my most epic waves ever have been on this board--and it's only been, what, two months!?!?  Consider me a very happy customer!” —Spencer 32/6’9”/250lb | 7’6” x 23 3/4” x 3 5/8” 72L #monstachief F #proxyepoxy superduty #surferfeedback https://www.instagram.com/p/CAOCHbwnntb/?igshid=1423d0zgar1al

Stoked surfer reports: this just in >> “Proctors! Hope this finds you well, safe and enjoying lots of time together :) That was an epic clip of you shaping the Zorch, Todd! That thing looks sick!! I'm overdue in sharing a few pics with you guys of the Monsta and Le Pippy out there in the Ments last summer! Can't speak highly enough about your shapes on any day but when you go to the ments you don't want doubts about what you brought and I did not... I rode the monsta pretty much the whole time while figuring out the pippy since it was still new. I put a mini trailer in it a few months ago to lighten up the weight in the fins and it has been MAGIC!! Just goes anywhere I want it to instantly. Has made so many sections so much better than they should have been. Thank you as always and will talk to you again soon.

Confessions from a Prodigal Returning Home: stoked surfer report (special edition / on the heels of a cold dark journey through the wilderness) >> “Todd and Charissa, It's time, with a heavy heart I have to come clean and confess...I've been exclusivly riding other brands of boards for the last 6 months. All of the last year I've been doing a major house remodel, I got fat and was super stressed...and obviously my surfing level was affected by that...but it was far easier to blame the boards than blame myself...so my wandering eye strayed to some off the rack sleds. It felt like cheating at the time...but I had to mix it up and try something new.  Sure, there were some fun moments some new experiences but...in the long run I didn't find what I was looking for.   I lost all surf confidence as I did not feel I was ever really in sync with my equipment...every turn has felt awkward and forced...the the point where I've really not been enjoying surfing. Yesterday however I went to my garage and grabbed a slightly yellowed 5'8" jetstream and put it under my arm.  The curves felt so familiar, so comfortable, so damn good that I went straight down to the local for a surf. The first wave I got was magic, tons of speed on take off, a acceleration through turns, great flow and just so damn lively feeling.  I was in love again with surfing and with you boards. If you guys would consider taking me back and allow me to order some boards again I promise will never stray again. Yours hopefully” — Alex #surferfeedback https://www.instagram.com/p/B7kimwsHQRd/?igshid=d8zfl4vu0eka

Stoked surfer reports: this just in >> “Hey Charissa, I just wanted to pass my feedback and say thanks. The board has performed so well that it’s completely refreshed my surfing. I’ve surfed it now in a variety of conditions and I’m getting in early on waves and able to do so much more as the board is super fast and turns on a dime. And I almost didn’t get 5 boxes b/c I wasn’t a fan of quads, but Todd recommend it for a goody footer at Mugu. I love it as a quad, quicker takeoff and holds in the face!! Thanks again!! Take care and happy holidays!” —Mark 38/5’10”/200lb 6’4” x 20 7/8” x 2 7/8” 42.5L #Monstachief F thumbtail #surferfeedback https://www.instagram.com/p/B6JZBgfg5S3/?igshid=13zystdkktrrr

Stoked surfer reports: this just in >> “Todd - I don’t know about this holy monsta bonzer. It catches everything and gets into waves way too early and easy. On top of that, it’s super fast and makes the sections others can’t.  It’s  just not fair to everyone else in the lineup. Carves and bottom turns are silky smooth and the drive it generates is insane.  The board makes me at least a 3x better surfer than I really am.   Oh, and I can’t even get to and from the lineup without being stopped by people freaking out about the board - saying how cool it is and asking how can they get one. Even the old guys are eyeing it and thinking of going short again. Seriously Todd, I just don’t know about this one......I think maybe you should destroy the file on this board. The surf world isn’t ready for it yet. —Brandon 43/6’0”/163lb/30 yrs exp 6’4” x 19 5/8” x 2 5/8” #holymonstabonza #surferfeedback #bonzer #conceptboards https://www.instagram.com/p/B5Tx_rQAY7S/?igshid=74oe116h40a4

Stoked surfer reports >> this just in: “I’ve been riding (such and such brand) for the last few years, but felt like I was missing a few things in my surfing. I wanted to get a custom board from you for a long time, and was hoping the experience would meet my expectations. Well,  I’m so stoked on this board you made me. Just what I was hoping for and more; an all-around high performance board that lets me get way more critical. I’m able to throw it into steeper parts of the wave where I think I’m not going to ride out and it feels like the nose is super free and rides out of stuff I’m not expecting it to. It took me like my first three waves to figure out how the Flyin Lion generates speed, but once I got that back foot over those concaves in the tail, that ‘gas pedal’ you told me about when I picked the board up, then wow after that it was on, so fast yet grippy so I could push as hard as I want, and just a natural perfect fit for me. Just what I was hoping for. I think this epoxy technology is a key part too; the high density foam stringer in the epoxy core with carbon is so thwangy and lively responsive. And it works not just in good waves, but in like two foot I can do full wraps too. So stoked!” - Ben from Port Hueneme 6’1” x 19 1/2” x 2 3/4” 34L #Flyinlionsurfboard in teamlite epoxy with high density foam stringer and carbon reinforcements.
