The approach

Designed as a system.

Surf equipment has traditionally been managed through a collection of separate bags, bins, buckets, and organizers. The Hold takes a more integrated approach, bringing essential functions together in a single piece of equipment designed around the full routine.

The surf routine, integrated

One system for the drive out, the session and the return.

Dedicated wet storage

A full-footprint lower basin contains wetsuits, boots and wet equipment, keeping water, salt and sand inside the unit.

Sealed dry storage

A removable, independently sealed dry pod sits above the basin, with organized compartments for a towel and personal essentials.

Integrated wash and drainage

A removable baffled wash floor raises equipment off the base, and hose-compatible threaded drains support rinsing and cleanup.

Modular architecture

The structure is designed as a foundation for future modular additions, built on the same footprint.

Freshwater wash basin

You drive. Your wetsuit gets a wash.

Bring fresh water. Leave the salt behind. The Hold’s wash basin stores water for your post-surf rinse, while its baffled floor turns the motion of the drive home into a passive wash for your wetsuit.

More than a soak. In our testing, washing with the movement of the car outperformed passive soaking.

Built to last

Not a storage bin. Equipment.

The Hold is built for salt, sand, sun and the back of a truck bed. Rugged construction stands up to the knocks, loads and hard use of a life spent at the coast.

It isn't a hardware-store tote that cracks after a season. It's premium equipment made to take punishment and stay in your routine for years to come.

Modular platform

The foundation of a system.

The Hold is the base of an expandable gear system: a stable, full-footprint platform built around your gear and your routine.

Encinitas, California

Designed from experience.

Founded by surfers in Encinitas, California, Tehom began with a simple observation: much of the equipment surrounding surfing had evolved as separate solutions to related problems. We saw an opportunity to design those functions together.

The Hold is our first expression of that approach.
