Cutter is a surfer-type character seen in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode "Reign Storm". According to the official DIC production outline for this episode, Cutter's original name was Rick.[1]

When Princess Toadstool is washed ashore while surfing during her vacation in Hawaii, she is helped up by Cutter, a surfer. Cutter also notices Toad, whom he assumes is a child wearing an unusual sun hat, due to his small size and Mushroom cap. Toadstool and Cutter surf, swim, windsail, waterski and hanglide together, and the Princess enjoys herself so much, she questions whether she even wants to return home.

As Princess Toadstool gets better at surfing, Cutter tells her that she should enter an upcoming surfing contest. At the same time, Toad spots Kooky in the bushes, and informs Princess Toadstool that the Koopas are probably causing trouble back home. Having to leave on short notice, Princess Toadstool confesses to Cutter that she is the princess of the Mushroom Kingdom and must return home through a drainpipe, but Cutter does not comprehend the concepts of "Mushroom Kingdom" or "Drain Pipes," or that his surfing student is actually a princess. Toad warns Cutter not to tell anyone in the Real World of this, to which Cutter agrees, probably out of not wanting to be thought of as strange or not fully understanding what has transpired. Princess Toadstool is somewhat sympathetic to Cutter's difficult sitation, and promises one day to return to invite him as a royal guest of the Mushroom Kingdom, as she should make him feel at home there as much as he has welcomed Peach to the United States.

Cutter was voiced by Jonathan Potts, better known for his role voicing Link in the The Legend of Zelda cartoon.
