ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS / INFLATION / DEFLATION
Inflate your board with the pump that came with your board or any pump designed
for inflatable boats and other low pressure inflatables. These types of pumps will
have a hose and adapters to fit the valve on this board. Choose a smooth and clean
surface to unfold your board on.
INFLATION (SEE DRAWING ABOVE)
Remove the valve cover. Ensure the valve button is in the up position. This will
ensure air will not rush out when you remove the pump hose. Attach the pump hose
and twist it tight in the valve. Pump your board to the proper pressure. Your pump
is equipped with a one-way valve feature that aids in pumping your board to full
pressure. Start pumping with the valve plug inserted so you are pumping on the
up and downstroke. When pumping becomes difficult, remove the valve plug and
continue. Recommended air pressure is 15-18 PSI. Do not exceed 18PSI (1 bar, 1240
mbar). Once your board is inflated, remove the hose and reattach the valve cap. Twist
it tight to ensure a proper seal.
DEFLATION ( SEE DRAWING ABOVE )
Remove the valve cap. Press in on the valve button until it locks in the down position.
You can then push out the air and roll your board for storage.

Valve Base
If you leave your board exposed to the hot sun, check the pressure and
deflate it slightly. Otherwise the board may become over inflated and
stretch the material. The ambient temperature aects the tube’s internal
pressure: a variation of 1º C / 1.8º F causes a variation of the pressure in
the tube of +/- mBar (0.06 psi)

DETACHABLE FIN:
This Slingshot SUP comes with a detachable rear fin that allows the board to track in
a straight line. It also comes with a removable sUPWINDer center fin that allows the
rider to stay upwind when using it with a Slingwing. Both fins are removable and can
be installed anytime whether the board is inflated or deflated.
REAR FIN:
1. Insert the fin into the box slot and slide
backwards to the desired position. Adjusting the
fin forwards or backwards will depend on the
personal preference.
2. Carefully press on the top of the fin to insert the
rear end into the fin box.
CENTER SUPWINDER FIN:
1. Insert the supplied square nut into the forward
track and slide it to the back.
2. Insert front of sUPWINDer fin into the slot box
and slide it forward.
3. Align the hole in the tab on the rear of the
sUPWINDer with track nut and use the supplied
thumb twist bolt to attach the rear tab of the
sUPWINDer to the track nut
4. Windsurf Universal Attachment: Remove T-nut
from base of single bolt windsurf Universal.
Leave disc washer attached. Screw universal into
threaded insert in board clockwise until snug.

MAINTENANCE
1. To deflate the board, remove the valve cap from the valve in the board.
2. Clean and check the board as well as all the accessories. Make sure the board is
completely dry before putting it away. Make sure that no sand or gravel remains
inside the bag - this could result in abrasion or even punctures while storing the
board.
3. Rinse your board after use in salt water to avoid corrosion.
4. Roll it up from the opposite end of the valves (so remaining air can escape from
the valves).
5. When storing your inflatable, keep it in a clean and dry place.
MAINTENANCE
1. Check that the board is fully deflated and lies flat.
2. Prepare a round patch no less than three inches or seven centimeters in diameter.
3. Clean the patch and the area surrounding the leak with alcohol.
4. To contain excess glue, use masking tape to tape o the area around the patch.
5. Apply a generous amount of glue to the surface of both the iSUP and patch.
Apply pressure to secure the patch to the iSUP.
6. Work out all air bubbles to assure the patch has a clean bond.
7. Wait 24 hours before re-inflating.
Whenever you take your board out of the water and deflate it, allow time
for it to air out and dry. Neither the skin/hull or the inside chambers will
suer from water damage, but stagnant water could cause mildew and
foul odor.
• Perform all of your repairs in a well-ventilated area.
• Avoid inhaling glue vapors.
• Avoid contact with the skin or the eyes.
• Keep all repair materials (glue, solvents, etc.) away from the reach of
children.
• The repairs on the welds must not be glued. Only the manufacturer of
the board can perform repairs on the welds themselves.
