3. While pulling the cord (with the pins released) use the palm of your hand to
slide the footboard forward or back to the desired position.
4. Once the footboard is in position, let go of the cord. This will release the pins
back into the rails.
5. Apply pressure to ensure that the holes on the rails capture the pins and lock in
the footboard. The rudder lines running through the pedals on top of the
footboard are self‐adjusting. Simply set the footboard at the desired setting and
you’re ready to go.
It may take one or two tries to find the optimal position, but the luxury of this system is
that you can try as many as you like! And, use the handy number scale on the side of
the footwell to reset your footboard position if someone else uses your boat!
Correct Positioning of the Footboard
Setting up your surf ski is a personal task. We recommend you position the footboard
so it provides a solid platform for your feet, allows comfortable leg extension on your
forward stroke, and allows easy manipulation of the toe pedals for rudder control. A
slight bend to your knees will ensure you can rotate and work your legs while
paddling. Use the Velcro® strap adjustment to set footstrap tightness.
Footboard Maintenance
The V‐Series footboard is very user friendly and you should not encounter any
problems with its operation. Routinely rinsing the footboard, rails and footstrap after
use will keep salt, sand and other debris from collecting and hindering the action of the
footboard. A light application of silicone spray applied to the notched rails once or
twice a season will keep your footboard moving smoothly.
