TRANSPORTING YOUR PADDLEBOARD
Avoid direct sunlight when possible. If you must expose your paddleboard to direct sunlight during transport it is best to keep the
bottom facing upward. Exposing dry deck pad to direct sunlight may cause damage.
Paddleboard bags are available at local retailers for protection during transportation. However, do not store your paddleboard in the
bag for extended periods of time.
