HOW TO USE
(Standing, using a standard paddle board paddle.)
• Stand in a comfortable stance with your feet shoulder width apart and keep your
knees slightly bent, keep your shoulders back, and look straight ahead.
• Grab your paddle and place one hand on top end of paddle palm down and your
other hand approximately 24" down shaft of paddle. Paddle in a forward
motion, with your arms slightly bent.
• To turn left paddle on the right side of the SUP. To turn right paddle on the left side of
the SUP.
When inflating for the first time, inflate indoors at room temperature – the PVC will be
soft and assembly will be easier. If the item was stored below 0°C / 32°F, leave it at 20°C /
68°F for 12 hours before unfolding. Inflate it with the high pressure pump included with the
board. This pump has an adapter to fit the flush valve.
Using an air compressor will damage your product and
automatically void all warranties.
INFLATING YOUR BOARD
Valve Operation: Inflation valve is located at the back of the board. The valve must be in
the closed position for inflation to take place, make sure that the center valve pin is "up". If
valve pin is "down", press down on the valve pin and turn it counterclockwise until it pops
up to the closed position.Lock the valve cover over the valve stem once inflation is com-
plete. This will prevent any accidental air from releasing or the entrance of any particles into
the valve and interior air chamber.
INFLATION SEQUENCE
1. Make sure that the valve pin is up and in the closed position.
2. Make sure the pump hose is attached to the "inflate" port of the pump handle.
WARNING!
CAUTION!
3. Connect the pump hose nozzle into the valve.
4. Pump air into the SUP by pulling the pump handle up and down.
5. Mount the fin(s) on the board.
Mounting the fin
The fin can be mounted before or after inflating the board. The fin is mounted in a fin box
and is fixed by a (hand) screw. Some boards are equipped with a longer (US) fin box, in
this case the fin comes with a separate screw and screw plate to fix the fin in the fin box.

1. Place the back of the fin with the pin into the mounting on the board.
2. Slide the fin backwards and push the front down.
3. Fasten the (hand) screw and the fin is mounted.
INFLATION TIPS AND PRECAUTIONS
• The board can be inflated either with the included hand pump or an electric air
pump. The electric air pump can inflate the board to a moderate pressure but
you will need to use your hand pump to inflate the air chamber to the correct 18-20 PSI.
• Air compressors should NOT be used to inflate your SUP. Compressors generate to
much pressure and will damage your SUP. Damage caused by over inflation from an
air compressor is not and will not be covered by your warranty.
• Always check pressure before use. Over time the air chamberwill lose air so it should
always be checked.
• Inflate the board for a full 24 hours to be sure the board is airtight before use. If you
are seeing a dramatic decrease in air pressure, see the instructions for leak detection
in the board repair section of this manual.
• Do not over-inflate. Max pressure of 18-20 PSI is adequate.
• Do not let the SUP sit in the sun for an extended time when under full pressure. If the
SUP is going to be in a warm/hot or sunny environment, release some air pressure in
the board. Before use reinflate to the proper PSI. Water temperature may also cause
a slight loss in chamber pressure. It is good practice to place your SUP in the water for
several minutes to let it adjust to its new environment and then recheck chamber
pressure. It is a good idea to carry a pump and pressure gauge with you so that you
can add some air to the chamber if necessary.
• Check air pressure often with provided gauge.
If you leave your product exposed to the hot sun check the pressure and deflate it slightly,
to avoid overstretching the material. The ambient temperature affects the board's internal
pressure: a variation of 1.8°F (1°C) causes a variation of the
pressure in the tube of 0.06PSI (+/- 4 mBar).
DEFLATION SEQUENCE
1. Clear any water or fragments out from around the valve area before removing
valve cover.
2. Press down on the valve pin to let air out of the SUP. Once air starts to release you
can press the valve pin in all the way and turn it clockwise to the open locked
position.
3. Remove the fin(s). Leave the valve open while you roll it up towards the valve.
4. Close the valve to prevent moisture and debris from being sucked inside as the air
re-enters while you let go of the SUP
5. Cinch the tightly rolled up board with the belt-strap included.
6. Never leave a wet board in a bag for more than one or two days. As soon as possible
unroll it and let it dry.
7. Use fresh water for cleaning the SUP. Stubborn stains can be cleaned with a mild
soap detergent.
BOARD CARE AND STORAGE
When storing Your Stand Up Paddleboard, avoid storing in direct sunlight or in harsh
weather conditions.
• Before storing, hose off the SUP with fresh water and let it dry completely to prevent
mildew buildup.
• Do not use harsh chemicals for cleaning.
• Stubborn stains can be cleaned with a mild soap detergent.
• Storage of the SUP can be inflated or deflated.
• If storing the SUP outdoors, Keep it off the ground and covered with a tarp to prevent
exposure to the elements.
• Hanging the SUP is not recommend.
• Do not store in extreme hot or cold conditions.
• Be sure to store your SUP in a clean, dry area.
