Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your SSR softboard remains in peak condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fin Installation: Always ensure your soft fins are securely tightened into the fin boxes before every session.
- Rinse with Freshwater: After every session, rinse the board with fresh water to remove salt crystals, which can degrade materials over time.
- Avoid Excessive Heat: Do not leave your board in direct, hot sunlight for extended periods. Softboards can de-laminate or warp if left in hot cars or on hot sand.
- Storage: Store the board in a cool, shaded area. Use a board bag for transport to prevent unnecessary dings or pressure marks on the soft surface.
- Waxing: Use softboard-specific wax to ensure proper grip without damaging the deck finish.
