Greased Pig
Designed for performance surfing in between swells. Concaves all the way through…deepest at the fins… keeps it running fast in the small stuff. Stinger swallowtail makes for more pronounced hip and pivot point to release water and increase looseness. Uses boxy rails to push back in turns. Everything the high performance shortboards do in the good waves this board does in the crud. Ridden 3-4 inches shorter and 1/4" to 1/2" wider.
Todd will specify the variation on this design during order process. Formerly know as the "LeVee".
A speed machine for chest high waves and smaller; This is the type of board that you drive like a race car….it’s going fast so all you gotta’ do is hang on and steer. It has a low entry rocker for quick paddling, ease catching waves, and increased lift in small/ flatter faced waves. The bottom has a single concave that transitions into a pronounced spiral vee that carries off the tail. This hull design carries excellent trim speed and gives the tail a very free feeling in the small stuff. The rails are fuller and boxier with a forgiving edges that are softly blended into the bottom. You can ride this board 2-3 inches shorter, 1/2” – 3/4” wider, and 1/8” thicker than your standard shortboard.

THE PROXY
Proctor Custom Flexible Epoxy version 2.0
- Stronger than before, lighter than before, with an even more responsive/ longer lasting flex memory -
Made from materials designed for the highest performance surfing
possible – utilizes specific flex patterns to increase the board’s
torque through turns.
Stronger than the molded boards (i.e. Boardworks, Surftech, etc…)
Lighter than traditional p/u boards (polyurethane)
Custom designed…no pop-outs.
Now with unlimited custom graphics options.
The Proxy….definition. – Custom epoxy surfboard that matches the
flex and performance advantages of a polyester board with strength that
surpasses the molded pop-out boards.
This is our latest development in the flexible epoxy series.
We begin with an ultra-lightweight epoxy “fusion Core” for the shaped
blank - a uniquely formulated eps that has been fused under higher
pressures to achieve greater compression strength and less ‘worm holes’
(i.e open pores typical with standard eps foams. These open pores, or
worm holes add unnecessary weight due to water or resin absorption into
the blank.) The “Fusion Core” does not suck in water, or bubble or
delaminate over time like other custom epoxy core materials are prone
to do.
I custom shape and design each board on the DSD surfboard cad design program.
This allows me to use my most proven shapes to further customize the
perfect board for each surfer. Through personal discussion and
interaction, I am able to determine each surfers’ height, weight,
experience, the type of waves they surf, and the direction they want to
take their surfing. I have always believed that plain old communication
is an integral part of the design process.
The glassing is done with premium grade S-glass (the best fiberglass
for yielding the highest strength-to-weight surfboards). Strategically
placed flex points, or hinges are added at this stage as well. We are
offering two performance enhancing upgrades to the new PROXY line….I’m
calling this the Titanium Series. Upgrades include: (1) reinforced
carbon-hinge flex tail and/ or (2) Kevlar deck compression patch.
The epoxy resin used in the process is also uniquely formulated to
have more elongation, or flex than is typically characteristic of most
epoxies. This is very important to how a board rides.
The best surfboards flex and recoil back out of turns…..
they flex lengthwise as well as side-to-side along the board….this
is the “spring”, the “life” that you feel in a magic board. No matter
how great the shape of a board may be, you kill it if you build it so
it rides stiff and rigid.
Each board is made from start to finish here in our Ventura factory.
This allows me and the Proctor Surfboards crew to ensure that the
highest level of attention and quality is put into every board. |
It felt like I was on ice it was so fast
