Jason "Ratboy" Collins (born July 4, 1974, in Santa Cruz, CA) is an aerial surfer. He graduated from Santa Cruz High School. Collins dominated aerial surfing in the mid-nineties, as did surfers like Christian Fletcher. He is an accomplished long boarder and is known for his overall riding style.

Collins landed a backside 360 air during the Expression Session at the O'Neill Cold Water Classic in 1994. He did this at a time when his competitors were only doing top turns and roundhouse cutbacks. By landing that air, Collins defined his persona in the surfing world. He is a staple at surf competition air shows, and has been published on multiple magazine covers. Collins has a line of signature surfboards with the Stretch label. ^{[ citation needed]}
