Hideoscillous: ie. Hideous Oscillations
from the Latin root hideous to the eye, yet one possessing beautiful oscillating motions in the water.
An extreme combination of modern hull contours produces the glide of ‘free-friction’ between turns which intersects with the hold of a back foot ‘clamp’. A pedal-to-the-metal bear down of ultimate gougeability through maneuvers.
The old adage ‘looks can be deceiving’ & ‘true beauty lies within’ are the driving forces of this compact possessor of an unassuming depth of character.
This one – the Hideoscillous, transforms small surf like no other board I’ve made ’til now – it feels like the board rides on air – no friction – yet holds & corners on rails while balancing controlled lip release.
It’s like a healthy marriage between free friction & ultimate gouge-ability.
I may go so far as to say that this new rocker & steep concave bottom can be placed on any outline & foil to increase the horsepower.
The ugly duckling that transforms into a swan when you step foot on it.
I have been pondering a new paradigm for rockers & hull contours for over three years now. The days pass & I’ve continued to grind out & refine existing concepts … all the while knowing something new was coming. A groaning of enlightened concept awaiting a bursting forth.
Why did I wait this long?
Well, things must germinate … and I didn’t think I could draw in CAD what my mind saw … I would need to hand shape the prototype.
A new balanced/centered rocker, moderate entry, low tail rocker, with heavy heavy tow board-like concaves running nose-to-tail & dynamic steep drop rocker concave running dual inset bonzer-esque caves which exhaust straight off the tail block.
The outline, width & thickness determine the wave type.
A beach-break friendly shortboard for the smallest, most gutless days. Like surfing your shortboard so your transition back to decent waves is more seamless. Turns the “small wave boo-hoo’s into the small wave woo-hoo’s”

construction options & pricing
a word from the shaper:
The ugly duckling that transforms into a swan when you step foot on it. A small wave board where ‘free-friction’ meets ‘ultimate gougeability’ in a marriage of perfectly complementing design concepts.
The carbon/ kevlar stringerless epoxy construction makes this a very lively summertime, average waves section-making, buckets to the roof machine.

“Todd, I told you that was the most high performance board I have ever stepped on… I told you it felt like I would be able to do the biggest turns an throw the biggest buckets I have ever thrown on it… and that was after surfing pretty marginal Rincon… yesterday was total confirmation of what I felt at Rincon and way more than that… I felt yesterday that it worked incredible and I was only scratching the surface of what that board could do and where it could go on the wave… so butter… so smooth… so dynamic… out of the box speed.. flow and control!!! Can’t wait to get mine…”

There’s a few new sheriff’s in town to get the word out on our latest board breakdowns, ripper clips, board art, some philosophical rants and tirades, as well as general joyous happenings at our mom and pop made in the free world, custom surfboard factory. So come on and check us out also on (1) THE BLOG (it’s back and large and in charge) straight off the site and blazing all kine’s hype and propaganda (i.e. truthful goodness) straight offa proctorsurf.com (2) VERO – kinda like insta but with diffy treats and goodies to tantalize the most outspoken punk rock ‘tudes (3) MeWe – Sorta Facey but way more spacey for the kinda universe where everybody feels at home and there’s no peeping tom’s making you feel like ur being watched when you don’t wanna be.

Something very important I want you all to know: For 28 years it has been my most sincere heart desire to bless & enrich your lives with something quality, custom built, & engineered with excellence in the free world. And to also be more than a company making products, but to create an atmosphere of family & to share my personal inspirations & thoughts…to welcome you into the framework of my life even beyond the happenings of Proctor Surfboards. I have heard people say, “Hey y’know it’s just business man…your personal views ought to be separate from your business….” But that is not how I live my life. It is not simply ‘business’ to me; it is a calling. And by that I mean it is not about what I can get, but about what can be given, & that means bringing to bear those things outside of surfing that inform & shape the very essence of my motivation to conceptualize board designs. That comes from a place of awareness beyond the scope of surfing, while also encompassing all of the inspiration that informs the conception of ideas to innovate boards – what makes my heart beat is God almighty; the force that brings forth innovation is outside of me. And it is tied to ultimate truth, so I cannot separate the two from my existence without sacrificing all that I am. I love getting the notes & letters, the e-mails, & stoked reports from smiling faces I see in the water. Your resonating with what we do at Proctor Surfboards is an honor. Now, regarding Instagram, they are not allowing you to tag my company. So, that is the reason you have been getting no response from me or reposts of what you wanted to share. Also, if you’ve been removed from following us, it was not our doing. We welcome all of good will & cherish the free exchange of thoughts & ideas. We love you & hope to find a way to allow you to communicate in a more free way with us in the near future. We want to continue to make it possible for your individual stories to be seen & heard, & are working hard to make that happen. Stay tuned as we are in the process of some very exciting new development projects both in new board designs, construction materials, & infrastructures that promote freedom.
Happenin’ at the factory: It’s called the #techtonaught and it floats like a butterfly and stings like a thunderbolt from an archangel.
