“FOUR LEAF CLOVER”
(Drivey Yet Loose – Quad Finner)
What is better than a really drivey board that is still loose? – Nothing; that’s the perfect combo. The board featured here with the quad fin set-up is the perfect summertime board; fuller outline to power drive you through the small-scale stuff. The quad fin set-up is available on any shape, so don’t feel limited….go ahead and try it, you’ll like it. The key to the whole concept is the fin placement – No back fin reduces drag while the two side fins work with the rail line and rocker to throttle you through turns. Swap out your v-6 for a v-8 under the hood with a “FOUR LEAF CLOVER” quad-fin set-up.

Proctor Surfboards are custom, 100% handcrafted surfboards made in the USA with the highest level of precision design and with the highest quality materials available. It’s your board….talk to the shaper.

Harnessing the New Order of Flex – “Proxy” Custom Flexible Epoxy Titanium Series

• Fusion Core – Premium grade eps foam fused under higher pressure yields greater compression strength. This core is slightly more buoyant than polyurethane foam, so the boards can be ridden smaller and fit in the pocket of the wave better.
• High impact rail matrix – drive through turns and hold up to a beating.
• Instead of just using standard fiberglass cloth in the glassing process, a combination of S-glass (the premium fiberglass for boardbuilding & inter-woven composite are employed. Kevlar offered as a premium upgrade in the Proxy Titanium Series.
• Reinforced carbon-hinged flextail – A thinner tail makes for better flex and a more lively feeling board by reducing rigidity and increasing torque. Interwoven carbon-kevlar composite has a rapid recoil flex memory that acts as a hinge to slingshot the board out of turns, as well as protecting the toe and heel areas of the rails from crushing in over time.
• Uniquely formulated epoxy resins that have more elongation, or elasticity allow flex lengthwise as well as laterally throughout the board. This increases the performance of the board as well as its flex life/ longevity.
• All fin systems are available including glass-ons (shown here) which are rare on epoxy boards.
• Environmentally friendly – when a traditional p/u board’s life is over, there’s only one place it can go….to a landfill where it sits for 100 years before it starts to decompose. “Proxy” technology is recyclable.
• Made custom in the free world from concept to construction. It’s your board….talk to the shaper.

Shaper’s notes:
I‘ve been working on alternative surfboard materials for 10 years with the commitment to improve technology while enhancing performance. I believe surfboard building is a unique hands-on process that will always be done best by the innovators who love the sport. The unique construction detailed here is done in our factory in Ventura, California. I custom design every board using cutting edge computer assisted design software. This allows me to detail every board keeping the quality, consistency and custom aspects of my shaping always at the forefront.

Surfer’s Feedback:
…the board I’ve been so ravin’ about lately is that Blackbird, the Proxy one. That thing’s incredible. Thanks mate. Jay Phillips, Gold Coast, Australia
