With the convenient carrying case, you can easily carry it to and from your car. The bard is compact, and even with all the other supplies in the bag, it is still light enough for one person to carry.
Caring for Your Paddle Board
Taking good care of your stand-up inflatable paddleboard is key to making it last a long time. If you can avoid dragging the paddleboard, that is best. Something as small as a seashell fragment can puncture the board.
Carry the board to the beach as close to the water as you can get, inflate it, pick it up, and carry it to the water. While the board is durable, it can be punctured by any sharp object you drag it over, so always be cautious and carry it when you can.
If an air chamber starts to lose air, have it replaced as soon as possible to avoid further damage. When paddling in shallow water, watch out for rocks, sand, and other debris that could damage your board. You want the board to last a long time to protect it and keep it in good condition.
What’s Is Included in the Package?
The Feath-R-Lite Paddle Board comes with the board, paddle, fins, air pump, leash, waterproof phone case, and a carrying bag to place everything in and carry.
Fins
To track (steer) the paddleboard in the direction you want it to go with ease and remain on track, you need a couple of FINS. The fins are removable for leisure paddle with no specific destination, such as a little island to head towards.
Leash
A leash is designed to ensure safety while on the paddleboard. If you were to fall off the board, there is a good chance it would quickly float away. The leash acts as a safety measure. If you fall, you have your board to hang on to and climb back on. Even strong swimmers and those wearing life vests need a leash for extra safety.
Pump
This manual pump inflates your inflatable by inserting the end of the hose into the inflate ports and pumping to the proper PSI.
Paddle
Included in the package is an adjustable aluminum paddle that can be adjusted to fit your height, making paddling even more enjoyable and safe.
