Repairs
Should the board leak despite all precautions, it is easy
to repair yourself in most cases. Use the repair kit provid-
ed for this purpose.
• Find the leak using a solution of washing-up liquid and
clean water if necessary.
• Then let the air out of the board.
• Clean and degrease the surface around the leak.
• Cut 1 of the patches provided to size. Make sure that
the patch has an overlap of 2-3 cm around the leak.
• Then trace (with a pencil) the outline of the patch onto
the board.
• Stick masking tape around the perimeter of the patch.
This prevents excess glue residue from being left be-
hind on the board.

• Coat both the patch and the surface of the board with
the glue provided, spreading it evenly.
• Allow to dry for five minutes.
• Gently stick the patch onto the leak, pressing it from
the centre and continuing towards the outer edges.
This prevents air from becoming trapped between the
board and the patch.
• Allow the glue to set for at least 24 hours.

aution
- Do not pump up the board whilst the glue is setting.
- Do not use the board whilst the glue is setting.
Solution
This bulge is normal and does not affect
quality or performance in any way.
When air bubbles appear, tighten the infla-
tion valve using the tool provided for this
purpose.
If it is not in the highest position, press the
push-push mechanism lightly and turn it a
quarter turn so that it is in the highest po-
sition.
If it isn't, replace the push-push mechanism
with the spare part supplied with it.
If air bubbles occur, repair them using the
patches and glue provided.
Glue the EVA foam back onto the PVC us-
ing the glue provided. Follow the glueing in-
structions stated on the tube.
Take action immediately! Remove the
valve's push-push mechanism using the
tool provided. Actively ventilate through this
hole for 15 minutes, then passively ventilate
for a further 24 hours.
