GENERAL
Please read this manual carefully.
The manual does not cover a course on safety guidelines. For your safety, gain experience in
handling and operation before your first paddling trip. Obtain information on water sports
schools or attend classes if necessary. Make sure the forecast for wind and swell is suitable for
your paddleboard and that you can use it under these conditions.
Please check local regulations or special permits in each country before operating. Always keep
your paddleboard properly maintained. Any paddleboard can be seriously damaged by improper
use. Consider the sea state when speeding and steering the board. Each user of the board
should wear an appropriate buoyancy aid (life jacket/life preserver).
Please note that in some countries it is mandatory to wear a buoyancy aid that complies with
national regulations. Please keep this manual in a safe place and hand it over to the new owner
upon sale.
