Hi,

I was watching/admiring the clips you have of Larry Ugale. Do you know the dimensions of the board he used and his fin set-up? Also, was it a poly board?

(Mind you, I’ll never surf the way he did, even in my wildest dreams.)

Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,

The board is 9′0″ x 22″ x 2 9/16″

Performance model

with fin set-up at 5 1/2″ back fin with side fins at 15 1/2″.

Bonzer back fin with two normal sized thruster sides. Fin placement and configuration on this particular model is largely dependent on it’s unique tail rocker and extreme spiral vee/ chimed rails bottom configuration.

It is a Proxy custom flexible epoxy constructionmade here at our Ventura factory.

Do you need a new Performance Longboard? If you let me know your height, weight, the type of waves you surf, and experience….I will detail the magic design and dimensions longboard for you.
Please feel free to ask any other questions you may have. I know you would be stoked on a magic Proctor.
Looking forward to your reply,
Aloha,

Todd

Hi Todd,

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I’m looking at performance longboards, so I’m very interested in what you have.
I’m 50, 5′8″, 145 pounds.

I’ve been surfing my entire life but only recentlymoved to longboards

(after surgery on both shoulders).

I surf almost entirely on the East Coast — everything from mushy summer waves to hollow post-hurricane swells.

Basically, I’m looking for an epoxy longboard

that I can noseride but turns well

– I’m thinking big nose with a lot of concave (and entry rocker for hollow days) and a pulled in, rounded pintail. What are your thoughts on rails? I’ve ridden Waldens and McTavishs and the bevels seem to work well when it’s more hollow — didn’t catch the rail.

I like plain white boards, just your logo.
Also (I’m anticipating this question from my wife, whom I want to stay married to) how much would it cost, including shipping to Maryland?
Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,

The magic board for you would be:

9′0″ x 22 1/4″ x 2 9/16″ Performance Noserider

with a round pin.

This board noserides and holds trim like a dream, yet turns off the tail on a dime….this board model truly matches exactly with what you are looking for. The rails are chimed or beveled from the nose through to the fin cluster where they fade out into a hard edge boxy rail. My bevels are a little more subtle than what those shapers do, but I feel this makes them more versatile for a wider variety of conditions, but always keeping that nice no-catch/ no-dig feel to them. We can do plain white in the Proxy….and I actually have a unique new epoxy that has a uv stabilizer which helps it to not turn yellow as quickly as most other epoxies do; as well there is an optical brightner in the resin which makes the board brighter white than other clear epoxy boards. A Proxy custom Performance Noserider in those dimensions is $965.00 and shipping is going to run approximately $100.00 to your door and includes insurance.

Keep in mind this is a custom composite

surfboard made out of the highest grade materials

and is my premium board for

both strength and performance.

In the long run, this board will last you as long as two or three polyester boards….so in the end you actually do save money by purchasing something with higher quality….plus it will work better than anything you’ve ever ridden (had to through that in). Oh, and one other thing. To place an order you only need to put down half. You pay the remaining balance when the board is done and just prior to shipment.
Well, please feel free to ask any other questions you may have. I know you would be stoked on a magic custom Proctor Proxy Performance Noserider. Looking forward to your reply, Aloha,

Todd
