Board Inflation
- Remove dust cap covering valve (it may already be off; it’s on the end of the string).
- Turn the internal “nipple” of the valve anti-clockwise to close it before you inflate your sup.
- Connect the hose to the pump.
- Connect the other end of hose to the board by pushing and twisting the end of the hose (baronet fitting) clockwise firmly.
- Pump up the board using the pump to min 15psi or max 22psi; the gauge on top of pump indicates the pressure. The higher the pressure, the better performance of the board.
- When the desired pressure is achieved remove the hose by turning the end of the hose (baronet fitting) anti-clockwise quickly.
- Replace the dust cover situated on the string by pushing and twisting into place.
Board Deflation
- Remove dust cap by twisting anti-clockwise.
- Push and twist the small internal nipple clockwise to open the valve; Air will rush out.
- Remove fins and roll up the board from the nose end of the board down to the tail.
