Hey Todd,

As a Central Coast crony, I’m becoming increasingly aware of your work and I’ve got to say, it looks bitchin’. On that note, I wondering if you could give me an idea of cost and turn around for the following:

• 6′-10″ x 20″ x 2 3/4″ EPS/Epoxy squash-tail Big Chief - $735.00 includes fin system, fins, our unique Proxy / custom flexible epoxy construction and a two color fade (keeps the board looking nice and new since they last about three times as long as a normal board – typical colors are two tone light grey, two-tone light blue, or two-tone light olive drab/ sage green fade.
• 6′-8″ x 21″ x 2 5/8″ EPS/Epoxy Rascal II - $735.00 without channels and with thruster set-up….or $835.00 with channels and a five fin set-up to run as thruster or quad. Same colors as above available. You can also go clear on the boards, but over time the epoxy tends to yellow a little quicker than polyester, that’s why typically I spray them.

Thanks for your time.

Mad props,

Marcus

Marcus,

I’m so sorry not to get back with you sooner…..things have been going crazy busy here, but besides that I missed your e-mail somehow on the first look through and just now came up with it. Anyway, thanks for the compliments….I answered your questions below in blue..

Please feel free to let me know your height, weight, experience, type of waves you need the boards for….and I’ll let you know any thought I have about what I think you’d be stoked on.

Looking forward to your reply,

Aloha,

Todd

Hi Todd,

Thanks for the response. No sweat for the delay…I’m sure you, like most everyone in the biz, were hustling for the run up to Sacred Craft.

At any rate, thanks for the input. It all sounds good. On a related note,

how comfortable are you with a customer ordering “off the menu”, so to speak?

In addition to the stock shapes I inquired about, I would also be interested in a board with the

rocker, rails, and volume distribution of the Big Chief, but in a round-pin quad.

Just curious if that’s an option as far as you’re concerned. Let me know.

Thanks again,

Marcus

Hi Marcus,

Thanks bradah…

As for off-the-menu – that is my specialty.

I work with surfers of all different skill levels and styles all over the world…making/ designing concept boards for the specific waves in their area and each surfers specific ideas for the direction they want their surfing to take.

So, I’ve got my proven board models, but those are just as jumping off points so to speak in which we build off of to further customize…keeps things fresh that way, and keeps board design moving forward.

You have each design saved on a database so you can always get the exact board again or slight modifications to it.

So, yes we can easily do a Big Chief volume quad with a round pin….have done quite a few of those with really good results.

Please feel free to ask any other questions you may have. I know you would be stoked on some new custom Proctors.

Looking forward to your reply,

Aloha,

Todd
