The Scarecrow: the fastest trim speed board ever
scary? no. this skinny-tailed-swabby is the way to go. Todd, after his first session on it, “…it felt like butter in a boiling hot pan…I think I did the best layback turn of my life on that board.”
This is the fastest trim speed board ever. Ideal for pointbreaks, this board has incredible drive and projection down the line due to the fuller nose outline and low entry rocker. The narrowness of the winged swallowtail makes it super responsive rail-to-rail allowing it to turn on a dime even if your back foot isn’t right on the tail. The bottom features an even single concave running the length of the board with double concaves inset through the fin cluster….this gives the Scarecrow perfect hold complemented by full tilt speed. Runs typically with two larger side fins and small trailer, but can also be ridden as a thruster; or with a five fin plug set-up to run as quad or thruster.
Ride this board six inches shorter and one inch wider than your normal good waves shortboard.
FIN CONFIGURATION: large M.R. style twins, or large twins with small trailer, thruster, or as a five fin options to ride as any of those as well as quad.
WAVE PREFERENCES: small to medium sized pointbreaks; knee high to head high.
AVAILABLE TAIL CONFIGURATIONS: single wing swallowtail or roundtail
RECOMMENDED RIDER TYPES: intermediate to expert

“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.
