How to Care for Your ORW Inflatable Paddleboard

Always rinse your board after use, especially when used in salt water or dirty waters. Storing an inflatable paddle board dirty will deteriorate its exterior over time. Don't use any strong chemicals when cleaning. For tough stains use a mild dish soap and a soft wash cloth or a magic easrer to scrub. We find that a magic easer works best. Typically just spray with a hose and let it air dry. DO NOT USE DIRECT SUNLIGHT TO DRY YOUR BOARD. Why not? Direct sunlight will cause natural heat expansion. This can hurt the seams of an inflatable paddle board, particularly if it's  fully inflated.  Keep your board out of the hot sun when not in use. ORW cant stress this enough.

Storage is one of the biggest selling points of an inflatable paddle board. While it's designed to be stored in its bag, if you have the room storing partially inflated makes it ready to go with just a few pumps of air. If you do this, be sure to reduce the pressure 5 psi or more. You should be able to press by hand. Again, too much heat will cause natural expansion which will stress the seams and even could cause the board to burst. As a rule, extreme temperature swings aren't kind to anything made by humans, let alone inflatable paddle boards. The ideal place to store it is cleaned up, folded and put away in a normal climate environment.

Your ORW Paddle Board loves the sun as much as you but just like you too much sun can be a bad thing. Follow the storage tips above to keep you inflatable look good year after year.
