Hydration is the most overlooked part of a hard surf session, especially once the water starts warming up later in the season, and the Mizu M8 water bottle has been the one living in our car door for the past month of dawn patrols. It’s a single-wall stainless steel bottle, light enough that it doesn’t feel like dead weight in a surf bag next to a wetsuit and fins.
We’ve been recommending it to some of the junior competitors we’ve profiled in our From Grommet to Tour piece, since staying properly hydrated between heats is one of those unglamorous details that makes a real difference over a full day of competition.
At 800ml it’s a good middle ground for a car door pocket, big enough to matter but not so big it takes forever to fill from a tap. The stainless steel body has held up fine to being tossed around in the boot with boards and wax.

Is the Mizu M8 Water Bottle Worth Buying?
For anyone who surfs regularly and consistently forgets to drink enough water before or after a session, the Mizu M8 water bottle is a simple, inexpensive fix. It’s light, tough enough for a surf bag, and exactly the size you actually want sitting in a car door.
