Like all good things in life, look after it and it will serve you well…
Proper care and maintenance of your handmade surfboard will ensure it serves you well for years to come. Follow these guidelines to keep your board in top condition:
Breather Vent
Because our boards have a hollow air core, they utilise a breather vent - a waterproof, self breathing valve that allows air pressure regulation without you needing to do a thing.
Follow these simple guidelines to ensure years of hassle-free surfing.
- Avoid leaving your board in excessive heat for extended periods of time.
- Ensure your breather vent is properly installed and done up tightly as per the recommended torque setting (watch installation video here)
- Replace your breather vent once every year, or after every 100 surfs - contact us at info@bosinysurf.com for replacements.
- Rinse with fresh water periodically.
- Avoid wax build up around the vent.
Minor Ding Repair & Maintenance
While Bosiny surfboards are engineered to be exponentially stronger and more impact-resistant than conventional polyurethane/epoxy boards, their final glassed coat means they can still incur minor surface dings from excessive wear and tear.
However, thanks to our impact-resistant wood-aramid composite skin, these will typically only be cosmetic marks in the outermost fiberglass skin rather than structural damage penetrating into the board's core.
Minor dings can be easily repaired at home or by ding repair professionals in the usual way.
Major Ding Repairs
In the rare case of a major ding that breaks through the wood/aramid layer, as may happen after a heavy direct collision with rocks or a car driving over it, please contact us for a repair advice.
