Introducing the Rascal II
Rascal II
Yes, you guessed correctly; the Rascal II is an offspring of the original Lil’ Rascal. Don’t worry, it’s not meant to replace the trusty, tried and true design of the original Rascal….
It started as just some thoughts…..ideas for a new board design after contemplating just how much fun I’d had on my Lil’ Rascal over the last year and a half. So, here’s what I came up with….and you know what? ….it goes gangbusters:
Rascal II – I added a slight bit more curve in the last 12 inches of the nose rocker so it rails nice and tight in little nook and cranny pockets.
I put in a concave deck. It feels like your riding a skateboard and responds super quick edge-to-edge. The caved deck also gives you this insane feeling like you are riding “in” the board and “in“ the wave…you gotta just try it to understand what I mean. I also shaped in four “parabolic” (fancy for curved) channels that give extra lift, drive and directional hold. The moontail releases the water being compressed through the channels in a way that keeps the tail crisp and free to break it loose when you want to.
It has also been set-up to ride as either a quad or thruster…..keeping your fin options open. In a nutshell…..it’s more versatile, faster and looser; skates though the flats quicker, and surfs tighter and more responsive in the pocket than ever before.
I included a little riddle to go along with this board model. Tell us what in the world the following riddle means and how it correlates to the design relationship between the original Lil’ Rascal design and the new Rascal II design:
Here’s the riddle: “It’s nice to not have the hiccups off your front foot when encountering nooks and crannies ripe for slapping.”

Holy Shakas Todd! The Rascal II is absolutely insane. I’ve surfed it
nonstop since picking it up from you, and I’m loving it.
This is not just a small wave board; it’s an all around awesome board for
everything from knee high dribblers to head high peelers.
No need to grab the shortboard for the average good days. 
The Rascal II is so manueverable, fast, and
responsive, I don’t want to ever put it back
in the board bag. Everyone should get one.
Thanks for the magic board.

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.
