Half Tide Surf Accessories

Half Tide Surf Accessories is an Australian surf-accessories brand focused on making longboarding more accessible and inspiring adventure. The company designs and manufactures products in Queensland, with an emphasis on local production, practical design and circular material choices.

Its featured product is the Mal-Mate®, a single-wheel surfboard carrier created for longboard surfers who want to walk with their boards to their preferred surf breaks. The carrier offers a simple, ergonomic way to transport a surfboard on foot. Features include a large 240 mm wheel for clearance and an adjustable branded strap. Half Tide says the product is designed, tested and made in Queensland using material sourced from recycled Australian milk bottles. The company also states that the carrier can be locally recycled at the end of its life.

The Mal-Mate is listed at A$249 and marked as coming soon, with pre-order updates available by subscription. Half Tide’s current offering centres on this carrier and its approach to locally made, thoughtfully sourced surf equipment for trips to the coast.
