SUP inflatable I-Pocket

INFLATION

Once your SUP board is lying on the ground, open the inflation valve cap and check that the small valve nozzle is in the "high" position, and therefore it can let in air but cannot let it out. If it is in the "low" position, rotate it slightly to make it snap up. Now take the Reptile Double Action pump, screw the hose onto the coupling with the word OUT and insert the other end into the inflation valve of the board, turning the coupling clockwise to lock the hose. Inflate the board to a pressure of 15/18 PSI. Tip: To speed up the inflation operation, close the small red (or black) valve on the pump. In this way you will pump the air inside the board both outward and in return. When you begin to feel fatigue and the board is 80% inflated, open the small valve of the pump to use it in a classic way and complete the inflation.
Disconnect the pump from the board (if you have done everything right the air will not come out!) and close the valve.

FIN INSERTION

To insert the fin, first of all you need to insert the small plate inside the slot of the fin, positioning it forward, in the direction of the tip of the board. Now insert the fin from the end with the two metal tips. Slide it inside the rail, towards the tail of the board. then lower the fin, insert the screw in the hole and screw it to the plate previously inserted.

LEASH and GO!

The leash is your lifesaver, wearing it you will never lose the board in case something unexpected happens. Fasten it below the knee, and the other end to the special steel ring placed on the back of the board.
You are ready to go, start kneeling, in the center of the board, and as soon as you get some confidence, get up. Don't be rigid, falls into the water don't hurt! Good fun!

DEFLATION

After a wonderful day of SUP, it's time to deflate the board. Unscrew the safety cap of the valve, press firmly a finger on the valve nozzle and you will feel the air coming out with force. Rotate the nozzle slightly to lock it in the "low" position. The air will come out, while you, after removing the fin, fold the board. In 1 minute, you will complete the operation and you will have placed the I-Ufo in the functional Trolley. When you look up, satisfied, you will see your neighbor still tying his hard board to the roof of his car ... Life is better with Reptile!

An Inflatable SUP Board is very durable. Compared to a rigid board, it resists very violent impacts. But it is not indestructible. To try to make it last as long as possible and, in the first place, to make your session safe, it needs a minimum of care and attention.
- Absolutely avoid sharp surfaces, so watch out for rocky bottoms or mussels.
- Do not leave the board exposed to the sun for a long time when not in use. UV rays deteriorate any plastic material, causing the PVC to lose its elastic properties. Furthermore, the temperature greatly increases the air pressure inside the table with the danger of permanent deformation or breakage. If possible, store it in the shade. It is a one-minute operation that gives years of life to your board.
- If you do not deflate the board after each use, decrease the pressure to about 10 PSI. It will take a few strokes of the pump next time to bring it back to 15/18 PSI. In this way the life of the table will lengthen a lot.

What damage does the warranty cover?

Each Reptile Sports product is subjected to rigorous quality controls during every single production phase. Each item is weighed and measured to ensure that the technical characteristics comply with the specifications. Non-compliant items are NOT placed on the market but destroyed.
The warranty covers manufacturing defects and / or material defects with a duration of twenty-four months (24) from the date of purchase, in the case of sale to the direct user.
 This date must be proven by a delivery document issued by the seller (e.g. receipt), in which the following appear: the delivery date, the name of the seller, the identification details of the same (type, model).
 Main defects in materials and workmanship
The defects of the materials, and in particular of the carbon composites, are normally highlighted in the initial use phase. If an item is faulty (and this can happen), it breaks after a few exits. Breakages occurred after months of use, are hardly attributable to defects in material or production, but rather to impacts or stress following poorly executed maneuvers, impact with the seabed, whirled in the waves and finally inexperience. This does not mean that the guarantee is not recognized, but that it may be necessary for us to carry out a greater analysis of the parts in question to understand if the nature of the break occurred due to construction problems, wear or inexperience.
