How to Inflate Your New Glide Inflatable Board
We understand that getting a new paddle board can be nerve-racking during the set up. We suggest you practice a few times in your home before you take it out. Watch our video and follow along!
Key Highlights
Prepare the Area: Start by finding a clean, flat surface near water, free of sharp objects, to unroll your board.
Valve Check: Ensure the valve is in the closed position to prevent air escape during inflation.
Pump Attachment: Securely attach the pump to your board's valve, whether using a manual or electric pump.
Inflating to the Right PSI: Inflate your board to the recommended PSI, typically between 12-15 PSI, for optimal performance.
Pressure Check: Frequently check the pressure as you near the full inflation to avoid over or under-inflation.
Fin Installation: After inflation, attach any detachable fins to aid in the board's stability and maneuverability.
Safety Inspection: Conduct a final inspection of the board, valve, and fins to ensure everything is secure before getting on the water.
Safety Gear: Always wear a personal flotation device (PFD) for safety while paddle boarding.
