Instruction Manual

GENERAL INTRODUCTION

Please read this manual carefully before inflating.

This owner’s manual is not a course on paddling safety or seamanship. If this is your first

paddle board, or if you are changing to a type of paddle board you are not familiar with, for

your own comfort and safety, please ensure that you obtain handling and operating

experience before “assuming command” of the paddle board. If necessary, please look for

information about watersports schools or attending courses. Ensure that the forecasted

wind and sea conditions will correspond to your paddle board, and that you are able to

handle the paddle board in these conditions.

Prior to using the paddle board, please obtain information about local regulations and

specific regulations in every country.

Always maintain your paddle board properly and take care of any deterioration that

might occur in time because of heavy use or misuse of the paddle board.

Any paddle board, no matter how strong it may be, can be severely damaged if not used

properly. Always adjust the speed and direction of the paddle board to sea conditions. All

persons should wear a suitable buoyancy aid (life jacket/personal floatation device) when on

deck. Note that, in some countries, it is a legal requirement to wear a buoyancy aid that

always complies with their national regulations.

PLEASE KEEP THIS MANUAL IN A SECURE PLACE, AND HAND IT OVER TO THE NEW OWNER

WHEN YOU SELL THE PADDLE BOARD.

Overpressure: Deflate until it reaches the recommended pressure on valve label.

Drop of pressure: Inflate again slightly.

Please consider that the SUP board shows a bulge opposite the valve. This “bubble” is

due to production and can be found on every inflatable board.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING: DISREGARDING ANY OF THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED IN THE OWNER’ S MANUAL AND/ OR ON THE PRODUCT MAY RESULT IN INJURY INCLUDING THE POSSIBILITY OF DEATH. Review the weight capacity limitations of the board and never exceed it. Always wear a coast guard approved personal floatation device (pfd). Do not inflate the board by using a compressor. Do not go out alone.

ATTENTION/ DANGER/ WARNING No protection against drowning DO NOT/ PROHIBITED Do not use in white water. Do not use in braking waves Do not use in offshore current Do not use in offshore wind Not for children use. MANDATORY INSTRUCTIONS Read instructions first.

INSTALLATION Do not use a sharp tool. STEP 1: UNFOLD THE BOARD Choose a smooth and clean surface to unfold your product. For the first inflation and in order to get familiar with your new product, inflate indoors at room temperature where the PVC will be soft and assembly process made easier. If it was stored at a temperature below 0°C, leave it at 20°C for 12 hours before unfolding. STEP 2 : VALVE OPERATION To access the board’s inflation valve, remove the safety cap by rotating it counterclockwise.

WARNING: If you leave your paddle board exposed to hot sun, check the pressure. If the pressure is higher than recommendation, deflate it slightly to avoid overstretching the material. DEFLATION: Clear any water or debris out of the valve and its surrounding area before you remove valve safety cap. Press down slightly on the valve pin to slowly reduce the air pressure of the board.
PAGE 6
FIN INSTALLATION CAUTION: The fin can be installed when the board is inflated or deflated. The curvature of the fin must be facing the back of the board. If you leave your product exposed to the hot sun, check the pressure, and deflate it slightly, otherwise the material might be overstretched. The ambient temperature affects the internal pressure of the tube: a variation of 1°C causes a variation of the pressure in the tube of +/- 4 mBar (.06 PSI).

REPAIRING Your inflatable stand-up paddle board comes with a PVC patch for repairing minor punctures. Most leaks only take a few minutes to repair. Air Leakage: If your board appears a bit soft, it might not be a leakage. The ambient temperature affects the internal pressure of the tube: a variation of 1°C/1.8°C causes a variation of the pressure in the tube of +/- 4 mBar (.06 PSI). If the board was inflated late in the day, that air might cool overnight.

WARRANTY TERMS We warrant the board against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and services, for a period of 12 months from the date of purchase. Warranty Terms for Paddle Boards One year manufacturer limited warranty on all inflatable paddle boards from date of purchase. We guarantee against any abnormal defect in workmanship and materials within this period.

4. When storing your board, keep it in a clean and dry place that will not be affected by the elements or major temperature changes. Please don’t store your boards outdoors. 5. Limit exposure of direct sunlight to the Deck-side. While the benefits of a non-slip traction pad are obvious, they also increase the risk of overheating. While in use, water flowing over the deck helps to regulate surface temperature.
