Learning the basics
Now that you have an inflatable paddle board, it’s time to learn the correct steps to inflate (using a SUP Pump) and deflate your board. Like anything, practice makes perfect. To help you become a pro, we created a simple step-by-step guide with photos for you to follow. https://youtu.be/M3ocP24WEvoHow to Inflate Your Paddle Board
Most iSUP owners will inflate their board once they arrive at their paddle destination because it's much easier to transport it to and from your home when it's deflated. Most first-timers will start out inflating their boards with a hand pump, but will soon graduate to an electric SUP pump because you will find out that hand pumping your board is time consuming and an energy sucker. 1. Remove your board from the bag and unroll it completely. Before you start inflating, be sure that the valve's yellow pin is in the upright position. This means the valve is closed and will prevent all of the air from rushing out when you are finished pumping.





How to Deflate Your Paddle Board
*WARNING DO NOT USE THE VALVE WRENCH! This can cause severe injury.* 1. Before deflating your board, wash it off with fresh water and dry it completely. 2. To deflate, take off the valve cap and push down on the yellow pin, then twist to lock it in the open position. You will notice that the air is being let out now.
