Pump Set Up And Inflation
A
B
1. Release the valve cover by twisting counter-clockwise. Ensure the valve is
clear from debris, sand, or dirt before releasing.
2. Push valve button in and turn counter-clockwise 90 degrees so it pops up
and is in the “OUT” position.
3. Insert the pump hose and twist it 45 degree clockwise to lock in place.
Inflate until you reach the required pressure.
12PSI minimum for proper inflatable boards
operation and 18PSI maximum. Over inflation
will void your warranty.
Connect the pump hose to the
gauge housing and secure it tightly.

* Pump is not included in the package.

• Electric Pumps can be used to inflate board up to 80-90%. However, the
remaining pressure required should be achieved by using the hand
pump to avoid over-inflation.
• Do not use air compressors as this voids warranty of board.
• Before long trips, ensure the board has been inflated and has
maintained pressure for a minimum of 24 hours.
PRECAUTION & TIPS
C
Inflate Faster With Less Effort
•Use full range of the pump
cylinder while keeping your
arms extended.
•Bend your knees and use the
body weight.
1. Use DOUBLE ACTION mode by closing the air-tap to pump the board
up to 7 psi.
2. Switch to SINGLE ACTION position by opening the air-tap to pump the
board up to 18 psi.
3. After inflation, return the valve cover and tighten in clockwise direction
to lock in place.

Deflation
To deflate your board, follow the instructions below.
1. Release valve cap by twisting counter-clockwise. Ensure the valve is
clear from debris, sand, or dirt before releasing.
2. Push valve button in and turn clockwise to lock it in DOWN position.
F
1. Roll up your board from nose to tail, pushing all air out as you roll, or
using the pump on “deflate” position for faster deflation.
2. Press all air out of the board, return valve cover, and tighten in
clockwise direction to lock in place.
or

1. Clean the area around the cut or puncture using acetone or M.E.K.
2. Draw the outline of the patch using chalk or pencil (do not use ink).
Cut the patch, cover the cut or puncture with approximately 2.5cm (1
inch) overlap on all sides.
3. Apply tape along the outline of the patch. This will prevent the glue
from spreading outside the patch area.
4. Apply glue on both the board and patch using a brush or other
applicator. Make sure the glue is spread evenly and completely over the
board and patch. Let the glue dry for 5 minutes.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q: How much air should I pump into my board, and how long does it take
to inflate?
A: The maximum pressure is 18 PSI , any higher you risk over inflating and
damage. Depending on the size of your board it can take anywhere from 5
to 8 minutes.
Q: When detaching the pump from the board, the air starts to release from
the valve. How do I stop this from happening?
A: The air is releasing as the valve spring pin has been left in the deflating
position. Simply push down and turn the pin until it lifts up into the inflation
position and stops air from releasing; continue to inflate the board until up
to pressure.
Q: Can I leave my board inflated in the sun and over night?
A: If leaving the board inflated, we strongly recommend you to remove it from
direct sunlight and deflate the board at least to 10PSI.
Q: How should I clean and how should I store my board?
A: We only recommend water and a mild soap. Heavy detergents and solvents
can damage your board. It is best to clean and dry your board, take out the
fins, roll it up and put in the bag.
Q: If I puncture my board, can I repair by myself?
A: Yes, you can use the required tools listed in the manual with the supplied
repair kit or email us for more information at [email protected].
