This is how we rate our used boards
Each of our boards goes through a multi-stage inspection process to ensure the highest quality and durability. Each individual board is thoroughly tested for functionality along with its accessories. This includes:
- Pressure test: Each board is inflated to the optimal pressure using the corresponding pump. This is precisely measured and documented.
- Water test: The board is then tested on the water together with the appropriate paddle. We check the stability, handling and possible leaks.
- Durability test: After the water test, the board is inflated again and stored for a week. We then check the pressure again to make sure that no air is escaping.
- Categorization and preparation: Only when all tests have been successfully completed is the board assigned to a category, thoroughly cleaned and prepared for sale.
There are the following categories
Very good
The board/accessories are as good as new with minimal signs of wear.
Examples: Mini stains that are very difficult to remove but are hardly noticeable, small scratches
Good
Slight signs of wear may be visible.
Examples: A scratch on the paddle or fin, minimal abrasion of the board
Needed
There are signs of wear and tear, possibly slight damage to the material which does not affect use.
Examples: Visible abrasion of the board, scratches on the accessories/fin,
