How can I repair my stand up paddleboard?
We have a stand up paddleboard repair kit under the reference 8512384 for repairing small, easily visible leaks.
For all other repairs, we recommend that you contact the workshop of your local shore.
We can repair bases of the fins, handles, valves and significant leaks
Fin and fin base
Available through customer service and online in the event of breakage or loss.
SUP fin reference: 8403374
Remember to remove the fin once you get off the water.
If possible, rinse the fin base before and after use.
Start folding up from the fin base, following the dotted lines to avoid damaging the base.
How do you inflate and deflate a SUP?
INFLATING:
Check the valve’s orange button is up (closed), by pressing on it.
Connect the pump.
Inflate to 15 PSI.
The more inflated the SUP, the more stable it is and the better its movement.
Disconnect the pump and close the outer plug.
DEFLATION:
Firmly push the valve’s orange button to let the air out.
Do not put your face near, and stay back.
Roll, starting from the opposite side to the valve to remove all the air.
How should I store my board and where to leave it to dry?
Never leave your board out of the water in direct sunlight.
If you have to leave your board in the sun, we recommend keeping it away from any sources of heat (walls, floors, car roofs, etc.) and reducing the pressure to 10 psi in order to prevent overpressure and irreversible damage (explosion, delamination, leaks, etc.).

If necessary, it is possible to change the valve, please consult the workshop of your Decathlon store.
