TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
How do you choose your bodyboard size?
The size of the bodyboard directly influences its stability and ease of handling. It must be suited to the size and weight of its user. This tandem bodyboard is designed for two-rider bodyboarding, with a child at the front and an adult at the back. To use the product correctly, the child must not weigh more than 40 kg and the adult no more than 80 kg.
Only use in lifeguarded swimming areas.
Directions for use
This bodyboard can be inflated by mouth or using a pump bag (sold separately). Inflate gently; an overinflated bodyboard will not glide as smoothly and could become damaged if exposed to strong heat. You should be lying flat on the bodyboard when catching waves. Be sure to wear a long-sleeved anti-UV top or a wetsuit to avoid chafing on your arms and torso.
How to catch a wave with this product
Designed to catch and ride broken waves close to the shore, this product is designed to be used where the user can touch the bottom, standing in water up to the navel.
The child lies on the board with both hands on the front handles and legs slightly apart. The adult stands behind, both hands on the handles in the middle (arms around the child). When a small broken wave (<1m) passes, the adult pushes off with their feet towards the beach and lies down on the board.
Behaviour and safety
WARNING! Children must only use this product under the supervision of an adult. Particular care must be taken if there is wind and/or current. Safety equipment such as buoyancy aids or armbands are strongly recommended. Not suitable for use by kids aged 3 or under. A leash can be added, available to purchase separately.
Do not use towed behind a boat.
How to keep your inflatable bodyboard in good condition?
To keep your bodyboard in good condition, it is recommended to:
- Not jump onto it in a swimming pool.
- Not leave it inflated in direct sunlight or in temperatures above 30°C (deflate it after use). Never leave it in a vehicle in direct sunlight.
- Before entering the water with your bodyboard, make sure your bodyboard is in good condition, that no joins or seams are damaged, that the valve is fully closed and that it does not deflate.
What to do if the bodyboard deflates?
It's normal that the air pressure in the bodyboard drops during the day or when you put it in the water. In fact, if the temperature drops, so does the air pressure: in this case, occasionally inflate by mouth.
After inflating, it is not normal for the pressure in the bodyboard to drop significantly during a session. If this happens, check that the plug is tightly closed.
What to do if air leaks are visible or the plug does not remain in place?
Special attention must be paid to only using this product under the prescribed conditions. Any inappropriate use is forbidden.
If, after normal use, the plug does not remain in place or air can be seen leaking from the seams in the bodyboard, then the guarantee will be applicable for 2 years.
What to do if the valve leaks?
Valve leaks are generally caused by the presence of sand, which must simply be removed.
Partially deflate the bodyboard and leave it to dry (it is easier to remove dry sand than wet sand).
Use a pump to blow onto the valve and to remove the grains of sand by pressing the button (blowing by mouth can work, but risks making the sand wet).
In all circumstances, the plug must remain airtight.
