Meet Hal & Jules…
Cousins raised on the water because drowning in it was not an option.
Both extremely handsome (more so Hal, but Jules is a tidy second).
Ridiculously competitive (Hal normally takes the gold — silver’s still cute though, Jules).
And never missing an opportunity to take the p**s out of each other (Jules…. because he stinks of p**s.
Most kids grew up on bikes. Jules & Hal grew up on SUPs. Chasing sunsets, paddling head on into treacherous storms (and each other’s egos). No wave too big… apart from that one that choke-slammed us into the pontoon 🤣
If they weren’t racing, they were arguing over who invented the “perfect paddle technique” (Hal obviously).
All that chaos turned into a shared obsession for adventure, freedom, and being on the water. So they became qualified instructors / partly to spread SUP love, mostly so they could boss people around with certificates.
Years of boards as floppy as ya nan’s yoga mat, accessories that snapped like Christmas cracker toys, and one legendary argument about who owned the sh*te-ist board led to one decision:
Build the SUPs they always wished existed.
Bombproof builds.
Fully kitted out (Bond rocket launchers pending).
Visually stunning.
Actually affordable 👀
Many prototypes, a lot of laughs, and whole bag of unnecessary arguments later…
Tidal Rave was born. 🏄♂️🏄♀️
What started as two best pals on an adventure is now a passionate Army painting the waves. They never imagined how far this would go :
Now they get to travel and argue all over the world together and are still loving every minute of it.
RAVE ❤️
