The Mid Tide

Get To Know The Mid Tide

The generous outline (shape) and curves mean this board strikes the perfect balance between drawing long smooth lines in cruise mode and banking a nice turn on the open face.

Construction

Polyester or PU construction uses traditional materials and laminating techniques to produce a strong, reliable surfboard with high-quality finishes. All polyester boards are CNC milled from the shapers files and laminated by hand using quality components such as Hexcel fiberglass, Silmar resin and Bennett foam.

For years traditional polyester boards have been at the forefront of performance surfing. These boards feature a progressive flex pattern controlled by a high-grade timber stringer and feel very reliable under your feet. Polyester construction will perform in all surf conditions and can be adapted to suit a wide variety of surfboard models.

Loving this board. As a relatively new surfer my only experience was on an longboard (8’6”) which I’d been riding for about a year. It took me a few sessions to get the feel of this board both for paddling and popping up since it’s my first time sizing down. Glad I went for the 7’4 as it’s great for stability while super fun to start maneuvering more. I feel like there’s so much room to grow with it. And it’s stylin!

This board is awesome! It’s my first hardboard and I am so glad I got it! I’ve progressed a lot on it and it’s my go-to board. I got the 7’4, which is great for all year round.

I freaking LOVE this board. It’s a midlength that feels super stable and substantial but is light as a feather and rides like a shortboard. Typically I either log or surf a 5’10 potato chip. This is a perfect step up board OR a go-to when the waves are smaller or mushier but you want to ride a short board and have a lot of fun. (I’m riding the 7’0). I took it out in knee high waves for her maiden mission and had a blast.
