FAQs

The Megalodon Inflatable Paddle Board does not come with a bag included. The normal iSUP Carrying Bag is not large enough to fit either size Megalodon. We do carry a specialized Roller Travel Bag for these boards that can be purchased separately. This bag comes in two different sizes, designed specifically for the 12′ and 15′ Megalodons. It is large enough to fit the board and all its accessories to make transporting to and from the water a breeze.

When choosing a bag, make sure to select a bag your board will fit into without having to force it in. Your paddle board bag size should be slightly larger than your board.

We have our Paddle Board Day Bags that come in two different sizes. The 10’6″ size is perfect for the Versa, Cruiser, and Outpost and the 11′ size will fit the Glider. Our Touring Day Bag comes in an 11’6″ size and is designed specifically to fit our Voyager.

All of our inflatable paddle boards, with the exception of the Megalodon, come with an iSUP Travel Bag that will fit the board when deflated along with all its accessories. The inflatable boards are too thick to fit in the traditional board bags we sell. A great option if you are looking for protection for your inflatable board to use while inflated is the UV Sock. We do not carry these, however there are many out on the market that will provide heat and sun protection for your board.

We do sell used boards. However, they are only available for purchase in person, in our Outlet Store located in San Diego, CA.

Each used board is unique. In order to ensure you get exactly what’s expected we only sell used boards in person and not online.  Each board has different wear and tear, and we want our customers to be able to see their board in person before purchasing. Our stock of used boards is constantly changing as boards are returned and purchased at our Retail and Outlet Store. If you have questions about any specific models of used boards, please feel free to call our store directly at 619.474.9283.

After each use it is best to rinse your paddle board off with fresh water to remove any dirt, debris, or residue. If there is dirt that cannot be rinsed away a mild dish soap or cleaner can be used. We recommend using one that does not contain any harsh chemicals or bleach to ensure no damage is done to the board while cleaning.

After a day of paddling you want to make sure to rinse your board off with fresh water to remove any dirt or debris. If you have a board bag, you then want to make sure to dry the board completely before putting the board in the bag. For storage it is best to keep your board out of direct sunlight and extreme heat, these are the most damaging conditions to your board. Please check out our video tutorial on best practices for storing your hardboard to keep it in the best shape possible.

The PSI gauge will not move until you have reached around 7-8 PSI and we recommend inflating to 13-17 PSI. Surprisingly, the board can feel hard and fully inflated when still under 7 PSI. Simply continue to pump the board until the PSI gauge begins to register.

There is no concern about over-inflating the board with the hand pump, as the pump can only go to 12-18 PSI, and the board itself can handle a much higher PSI. We recommend inflating to 15 PSI for the optimal ride.

If you can no longer pump the board and the PSI gauge has not moved, please remove the pump hose from the board and then reattach it, this will ‘jump start’ the needle — it could initially be a little stuck. If you are still having issues with the gauge, please reach out via our Contact Us form and we can help troubleshoot further.

We do not offer a repair service at ISLE. If you have major damage to your board, we recommend taking it to a local surf or boat repair business. If you have a small leak, dent, or crack we do sell repair kits for both our hard boards and inflatables available in our Parts Section listed under Accessories. For tutorials on how to use these repair kits please check out our How To Videos.
