Hi Todd,

I ordered my first board from you nearly 2 years ago, a flexible epoxy Groveler IVP. It’s been a great everyday board. I surf anywhere from 1-4 x per week and have been surfing for 20 years.

I have never had a board that kept it’s flex/pop so long and even more amazing,

I have NEVER had to fix a ding. I swear that board is bulletproof. No dings, no delam, no nothing!

The only thing I think I’m starting to feel is the flex seems to deadened a little. I’m guessing you would agree that my board has reached its average usable life.

I see you have a new formula (Proxy). Any differences in feel from the flexible epoxy of my current board? How long is your turnaround on these?

Best regards,

Hi Aaron,

I am always stoked to hear more good feedback regarding our flexible epoxy series. Your board is probably getting into it’s golden years now….probably time for a newy.

Unfortunately nothing lasts forever…..except our soul….

The new Proxy has the same flex properties as the original flexible epoxy. I’ve just improved a few things so the boards are a hair lighter and can now accept any kind of color work/ artwork options. They are also stronger than before. So in a nutshell: stronger, lighter, same springy flex….and can handle whatever graphics.

The only slight difference in feel in the new Proxies is that they have a bit more slingshotty of a feel

driving out of turns….a good thing.

Turnaround right now is 6-8 weeks.
Please feel free to ask any other questions you may have. I know you would be stoked on a magic Proxy custom.
Looking forward to your reply,

Aloha,

Todd
