3. ISUP Board inflation Steps
a. Unscrew the valve cap, press down the valve pin to open the
valve. Let the air flow naturally into the product, in order to save
the time of inflation, then press down the valve pin again to
close the valve (in "UP" position).
b. Make sure the pump hose is connected to the "inflate" outlet.
c. Connect the pump nozzle into the valve receptacle, with a
half twist motion (clockwise)
d. Start pumping air into the board by sliding the pump piston up
and down. Inflate until you reach the required pressure.
Minimum 12psi for proper ISUP operation and maximum of
15psi for this product.
e. After inflation, tighten the valve cap. Only the valve cap can
ensure final air tightness.
4. Fin installation
The two side fins are fixed on the product. Once the board is inflated, slide in the
middle fin to the base and insert the fixed pin.
5. Inflation tips and precautions
DO NOT use an air compressor. Damage to your board caused by over
inflation from an air compressor is not covered by our warranty.
After 2 or 3 days there may be a small decrease of pressure due to temperature
change. if so, add some air by pump.
Before undertaking a long paddle, inflate the board for a full 24 hours to make
sure the board is airtight. If you are seeing a consistent decrease in air pressure,
follow the instructions for leak detection in the board repair section of this
manual.
DO NOT over-inflate the board. A max pressure of 15 psi is adequate. The
easiest gauge of a good working pressure is to have the chambers inflated to a
firm pressure when you press on them.
