Care and storage

Clean the board thoroughly after use to prevent damage from sand, seawater or excessive expo-
sure to the sun. Most dirt can easily be removed with a garden hose, sponge and mild soap. To
prevent mould forming, ensure that the board is completely clean and dry before storing.
Do not use any kind of solvent to clean the board, as this can damage the plastic components.
Store all the accessories in a dry, well-ventilated area. Ensure that all parts are completely dry be-
fore putting away.
The board is a seasonal item and is therefore uncomplicated to store away. If you live in an area
where you cannot use it throughout the year, we recommend deflating the board at the end of
the season, cleaning thoroughly, drying and storing it in a sheltered place until next season. This
will extend the life of your board.
Warning: Certain household cleaners, chemicals and other liquids (such as battery acid, oil and
fuels) can damage the PVC fabric. If it comes into contact with such substances, check the board
carefully for leaks or other damage.
Repairs
Small punctures can be remedied using the repair set provided.
1. Find the puncture.
2. Thoroughly clean the area around the puncture, removing all dirt.
3. Cut out a round repair patch: this should be larger than the damaged area.
4. Lightly roughen the outside areas of the repair patch.
5. Smear adhesive (commercially-available PVC adhesive) onto the underside of the patch and
around the damaged area of the board. The leak should be thinly covered with adhesive, with
no gaps.
6. Press the patch firmly over the entire damaged area.
7. Allow the adhesive to dry for 12 hours. When dry, apply more adhesive around the edges of
the patch to completely seal. Leave to dry for another 4 hours.
