What is included in the package?

How should I store the paddleboard long-term?

Store the board clean, dry, and loosely rolled in its bag, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Board is difficult to inflate to recommended pressure.

Ensure the pump hose is securely attached to the valve and the valve itself is in the 'out' position during inflation (push down and twist). Check that the pump is functioning correctly.

Board feels soft or wobbly on the water.

Verify the board has been inflated to the correct PSI. Check the valve for leaks and ensure it is fully tightened. Inspect for any punctures.

Fin is loose or difficult to attach.

Ensure the fin is aligned correctly with the fin box. Clear any sand or debris from the fin box and the fin before insertion. Use the provided screw and plate to secure the fin tightly.

Paddle sections do not fit together smoothly.

Check the connecting ends for any dirt or debris. Ensure the internal locking mechanism is clear and functioning. A light application of silicone lubricant can sometimes help.
