Technical information
Intuitive and educational
To help you catch more waves, we work to make our products as intuitive as possible and to integrate pedagogy.
That's why this bodyboard has carefully placed handles, which will allow you to spontaneously get into the right position.
Pictos located below the bodyboard illustrate each key step to catch waves.
A QR code will allow you to access tutorials and other useful information: maintenance, 2nd life, etc.
How to choose your bodyboard size?
The size of the bodyboard directly influences its stability and maneuverability. It is necessary that it is adapted to the size of its user. This bodyboard is therefore intended for children weighing between 15 and 25 kg, or an age between 4 and 8 years old.
A bodyboard that is too small will not float enough and will make you miss waves. A bodyboard that is too big will be difficult to handle.
Refer to the size selection help table.
Not suitable for sizes > 40 kg. Exclusive use in supervised swimming areas.
We design products according to 4 levels of practice. This product is intended for "discoverers".
- Discoverer: Water up to the navel, no fins, foam <50cm, propulsion by pushing the feet on the ground, wave riding up to the edge. Priority to pleasure and first sensations (Bodyboard with handles).
- Beginner: Light turns in waves <1m, propulsion with fins. Priority to learning the sport.
- Confirmed: Waves up to 1m50, more speed and beginning of figures (360 , El Rollo...).
- Expert: All types of waves, mastery of figures, even aerial: ARS, 360 , tube...
Directions for use
This bodyboard is inflated by mouth. Do not force when inflating, an overinflated bodyboard will slide less well and could be damaged if exposed to high heat. During the sliding phase, this bodyboard is used in a lying position. It is important to wear a long-sleeved anti-UV top or a neoprene suit to avoid irritation on the stomach and arms.
For more comfort, also make sure to push the valve into the bodyboard once it is inflated.
How to catch a wave with this product
Designed to catch and slide on the foam of the seaside, this product is used where the child can stand, with water up to the navel. When passing a small foam (<50cm) the child pushes on his feet towards the beach and lies flat on his stomach on the bodyboard, hands on the handles, arms bent and legs stretched out behind. The use of fins is not necessary. The texture of the fabric allows a pleasant contact with the skin. The application of wax is not necessary.
Behavior and safety
WARNING! Risk of injury due to the functional characteristics of this toy. Small parts - Choking hazard. Only to be used in water where the child can stand and under adult supervision. Particular care must be taken in case of wind and/or current. Safety equipment such as buoyancy aids or armbands are strongly recommended. Not to be used by children aged 3 and under. Possible to add a leash, purchased separately.
Eco-design and sustainability
The material of this inflatable bodyboard has been modified compared to previous versions. This change of material allows a reduction of the environmental impact of 38% (38% reduction in the environmental impact in equivalent KG CO2 emitted). In addition, the robustness of the product has been revised upwards, thanks to this new material and the new product architecture (welding plan).
How to keep your inflatable bodyboard in good condition?
In order to keep your bodyboard in good condition, it is recommended to:
- Do not jump with it in a swimming pool.
- Do not leave it inflated in direct sunlight or at a temperature >30 C (Deflate it after use). Especially in a car in direct sunlight.
- Before going to the water with your bodyboard, make sure that your bodyboard is in good condition, that no welds or seams are damaged, that the valve is properly closed and that it does not deflate.
What to do if the bodyboard deflates?
It is normal for the air pressure in the bodyboard to change during the day or when you put it in the water. In fact, any drop in temperature causes a decrease in air pressure: then re-inflate it occasionally by mouth.
If after re-inflating, the bodyboard loses pressure significantly during a session, this is not normal. If this is the case, make sure that the cap is properly closed.
What to do if air leaks are observed or the cap does not fit?
Special care must be taken to use this product under the intended conditions. Any improper use is prohibited.
If, after normal use, the cap does not stay in place or air leaks are observed at the welds of the bodyboard, then the warranty procedure will be applicable within the expected time frame (2 years).
What to do if the valve is leaking?
If the valve is leaking, this is usually due to the presence of sand, which can then be removed.
To do this, partially deflate the bodyboard and let it dry (Dry sand will be easier to remove than wet sand).
Use a pump to blow on the valve and remove the grains of sand by pressing the push button (Blowing with your mouth can work but risks moistening the sand).
In all cases, the cap must ensure a seal.
