INSTALLING FINS
First, locate the channel pin, insert it into the rail, and slide it in. Then, secure the fin with the screw until it is securely attached.
INFLATE & DEFLATE
WARNING: Do not remove the valve when inflated or to deflate your inflatable SUP.
The inflating valve has TWO positions:
INFLATE (UP) and DEFLATE (DOWN).
Make sure before inflating your iSUP that the valve is in the INFLATE (UP) position.
TO INFLATE
- First, lay down the board on a flat surface.
- Then, open the valve cover at the nose of the iSUP and ensure the spring is in the UP position.
- Next, connect the air pump hose to the valve and twist clockwise to secure the hose.
- Inflate the iSUP to 15 psi.
- Finally, remove the hose and close the valve cover.
TO DEFLATE
- First, open the valve cover, and press the spring down until it locks in place and releases air.
- Then, begin folding the iSUP from the fins to the valve.
- Finally, push the valve spring to the UP position and close the valve cover.
When inflating your iSUP, it will feel and look full. The gauge will not register until it reaches at least 6 psi. Therefore, continue to pump the board until the pressure gauge indicates 15 psi.
Our customers are a huge part of our success and your adventures inspire us in every way. Consequently, we strive to consistently improve our products and give you the best inflatable SUP experience.
WARRANTY
Your NIXY G5 board includes a 3 year limited warranty from the date of purchase covering manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. Included accessories carry a 1 year limited warranty. The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, misuse, impact with rocks, docks or shore break, storage in water, in direct sunlight, or in temperatures above 90°F or below 32°F, alterations, or mishandling such as dragging on rough surfaces. See full warranty terms.
RETURN POLICY
You have 30 days from purchase to return your board for a refund of the original purchase price, and we never charge a restocking fee. If you change your mind, a flat $35 return fee applies and the original $35 shipping is not refunded. Boards must be returned complete, with the paddle, pump, leash and bag, in the same condition you received them. If your order arrives damaged or we made a mistake, we cover shipping both ways. See full shipping and returns policy.
BOARD CARE & STORAGE
Read the following tips to ensure proper care:
- Avoid dragging your board on rough surfaces to prevent scratches and abrasion of material.
- Moreover, do not stand on your board outside the water.
- Rinse your board after each use.
- Furthermore, clean your board with a non-abrasive cleaner and allow it to dry before storing it in the travel bag.
- Avoid storing in direct sunlight or harsh weather conditions, including temperatures above 90°F or below 32°F. Storage of SUP can be inflated or deflated.
- If inflated, release air to lower pressure and keep it in a shaded area. If deflated, it is suggested that you store it in the Storage Bag Backpack that the SUP came in.
PADDLE
Adjust the paddle height to roughly 12 inches above your head. A longer paddle works for long and gentle strokes. Conversely, a shorter paddle makes for sharp and powerful strokes.
NOTE: Always paddle with the logo facing forward.
SAFETY WARNING
- Always wear a life jacket (personal flotation device).
- Do not use the board if you cannot swim.
- Avoid paddling alone, and always wear a leash.
- Do not use the board in adverse conditions.
- Be careful when paddling around sharp objects below the surface.
- Minors must be supervised at all times.
- Do not over-inflate or under-inflate the board.
- If a puncture or leak occurs, return to shore immediately.
- Do not use in white water or strong winds/currents.
- Finally, do not use compressors. Over-inflation of the board will void the warranty. Use pumps designed for iSUPs.
