Tips and Tricks
Clean Startup
Standup before starting the motor. Set the controller to full
speed and time your first paddle stroke to coincide with the
motor for a synchronized initial glide.
Smooth Turns
For smooth and easy turns, drop one foot back so your stance is
facing into the turn (toe-side). Apply pressure to the inside rail
and turn by putting your paddle blade flat against the back rail
and twisting out. Hold steady with foot and blade pressure
throughout the turn. Once you master this basic turning
maneuver, try some back-side (heel-side) turns, or front bracing
turns with your paddle forward and away from the rail.
Bungee Positioning
Position the battery on the aft portion of the Velcro for normal
operation. In the aft position, the two bungee cords will cross
over at the mid-section of the battery. For more aggressive
riding, position the battery on the forward portion of the Velcro.
In the forward position, the forward bungee can also be used to
crossover the battery. Use this 6-point bungee securing method
when going after boat wake or riding in rough conditions.
Fine Tune Your Steering
You can customize your steering by adjusting the deck adaptor
plate so that the motor propels your board straight ahead,
slightly to port, or slightly to starboard. Biasing steering to one
side allows you to paddle primary on one side. Goofy and
