Thule is proud to introduce the Thule Aion surfboard bag, a premium wheeled surf travel bag designed in close collaboration with big wave legend and longtime Thule ambassador Garrett McNamara. Purpose-built for surf travelers with high expectations, the bag merges practicality, protection, and planet-conscious materials - making it the ultimate companion for nomadic surfers and their pursuit of mythical waves.

“Garrett has been part of the Thule family for many years, and his passion, knowledge, and adventurous spirit have always been an inspiration for us”, says Tina Liselius, Vice President Brand at Thule. “Designing this bag together felt like a natural next step. From durability and board protection to how it moves through an airport - every detail reflects what matters to surfers who go the distance.”

Engineered for epic surf missions
The Thule Aion surfboard bag accommodates up to four boards and features individual roll cage protection, 50 mm foam padding, and adjustable nose and tail protector - ensuring each board receives the care and attention it deserves. Designed with sturdy inline wheels, multiple grab handles, and padded shoulder straps, the bag is built to move smoothly through airports, vans, and rugged coastal terrain.
A limited edition of 500 bags will mark this exclusive launch.

A legacy of performance meets a vision for sustainability
Inspired by Thule’s commitment to long-lasting, purposeful gear, the Aion surfboard bag is crafted from rugged waxed canvas, which is five times more durable than standard alternatives. The fabric has a water-resistant finish free from PFCs, and the product is bluesign® certified, ensuring environmentally and socially responsible production.

“This is the dream surfboard carrier. After years of traveling the world I have learned what works and what doesn't work, sometimes the hard way. This bag works! From the adjustable size, to the secret compartments every detail has been carefully executed. It has been such an honor to work with Thule, the ultimate lifestyle brand that truly helps you get outside.”
