Footstraps
Airship boards come equipped with footstraps and inserts on the board to support wingfoil and kitefoil
progression. We recommend the boards be used without footstraps, especially when learning, however
some users prefer them to help with their development. While the footstraps can be used for jumping,
we can not explicitly recommend using the footstraps for that purpose. Therefore, any damage incurred
from excessive or large airs will void the warranty.
1. Lift the neoprene sleeve to access the screws
2. Position the screws over the brass inserts on
top of the board and tighten
3. Repeat for all four (4) screws on each footstrap
and check for tightness
Note: Using a drill the first time will be easier,
however we are not responsible for misuse of
power tools or damage to the threading or board
by power tools.
*The Airship boards are shipped with the EVA foam over the inserts. The foam above the inserts is
pressed but not removed. To insert the screws you should be able to screw directly into the recessed
portion of EVA. If you have issues, a knife or small metal edge can be used to carefully trim the EVA
over the screw inserts.
**Please do this responsibly and reach out to Zetti support if you do not feel comfortable performing this
on your own.

ASSEMBLY NOTES:
Zetti Airship uses industry standard 9cm track, and is compatible with most brands on the market.
Please ensure the mast plate screw lengths and T-nut threads are the correct size. Failure to do so can
cause damage to the board upon installation.
*Note: Some hydrofoils do not have slots and must be attached by these following steps - beginning
after step 3 on the previous page:
4. Carefully place the mast base over the T-nuts
5. Insert M8 screw through the hole on the mast base and then screw into the t-nut
6. Repeat for all 4 screws
7. Move foil base into desired location
8. Tighten screws
Packing up
Remove hydrofoil and lay board on ground
with EVA pad facing up
● Push nozzle pin in and twist ¼ degrees
to deflate
Fold corners along the edge of carbon
baseplate
● Remove footstraps if installed
Fold nose onto tail of board
● Align to the front end of the carbon plate
Add to transport bag

SAFETY AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY
Zetti hydrofoil boards are used in sports that are considered inherently dangerous. Any use of Zetti
Brand products releases Zetti Brand, LLC from liability from damage or injury caused by improper use,
pre-existing damage, extreme wear and tear, or adverse weather conditions. Please follow directions
and safety recommendations carefully!
Inflate board to recommended pressure of 15-20 psi and be sure to check that the valve is in proper
working order. Make sure the valve is closed properly before use.
Do not go further from shore than you are willing to swim back. If the board deflates there is no extra
flotation compartment.
Use included board leash at all times. It is very easy to become separated from your board without a
leash. Under extreme circumstances it may be necessary to disconnect from your board to prevent
injury, for example, in large breaking swell. Please do so carefully, and have a plan to return to shore
before release.
It is recommended to always wear a wetsuit, helmet, and Personal Flotation Device (PFD) or lifejacket
while using our products. Please follow local laws and practice in safe locations away from marine traffic.
Minors must have adult supervision at all times while using the product.

Note:
During a crash the board may flip upside down exposing the hydrofoil. As the board rolls back, the
hydrofoil may contact the user or puncture the wing canopy or bladder. Do your best to prevent high
speed or extreme crashes that can result in these conditions. This is a common occurrence during
foiling and is not covered by warranty.
