GETTING STARTED

Please read all the instructions in this owner’s manual. Keep this manual in a

safe place for future reference if necessary. The manual consists of:

1. Important information

There is a space provided at the beginning of the manual to record important

information about your SUP (page 2). This information will come in handy if you

need to contact our customer service department.

2. Warranty registration card

As outlined in the warranty section (page 8), you can register your warranty

online at our website (www.pelicansport.com) or by mail by filling out and

returning the registration card. You can find the registration card in the center of

this manual. (page 11).

3. Manufacturer’s Declaration of Origin

Certain governments require a Manufacturer’s Declaration of Origin to complete

the registration. The declaration is located in the center of this manual (page 10).

MATERIALS/MANUFACTURING

All Pelican SUP’s are made of high density

polyethylene. If your SUP has a Ram-X™ dome

on it, please read the information below regarding

thermoformed Ram-X™ products.

Your SUP is made of Ram-X™. Its great flexibility offers exceptional shock

resistance. This flexibility increases with heat or with the craft’s prolonged

exposure to the sun but may also slightly warp the hull. The warping disappears

when the hull cools and never affects the craft’s performance.

Ram-X™ is a superior material that was developed and registered in 1978. It

quickly became the benchmark of quality in the industry thanks to its shock

resistance and ability to regain its initial shape following an impact. Widely hailed

by consumers, Ram-X™ is a step above other materials used in the industry.

TRANSPORTATION

Handles located on the SUP enable it to be easily carried by hand

By hand:

• Carry the board by using handles located at the front, rear or center depending

on the model.

• If necessary, use a device to aid in the transport.

By vehicle:

• Remove all accessories before transporting your SUP to avoid losing or damaging

them.

• Before starting your vehicle, ensure that the SUP is properly fastened using a

transportation device on the roof of the vehicle or on a trailer.

• It is recommended that you stop shortly after starting your trip to double check

that all the connections are secure and the SUP will not move during transport.

During a trip in bad weather, remember to regularly check the straps to ensure

they do not lose tension after getting wet.

NOTE

Avoid keeping the SUP firmly attached to your vehicle for an extended period of

time, particularly when exposed to the sun. This could create distortions in the

hull over time.

PRE-LAUNCH CHECKLIST

• Always wear a proper personal flotation device (PFD).

• Always have an emergency safety kit on hand that is required by applicable law

(whistle, etc.)

• Verify that the hardware used to attach the SUP during transport has been

removed.

• Make sure the drain plug is securely in place and properly fastened (if applicable).

• Make sure the length of your paddle is adjusted according to your size (see details

described in “Basic SUP Principles”).

LAUNCHING PROCEDURE

WARNING

Do not stand up on the SUP if there are objects nearby that present a falling

hazard (dock, rocks, etc.).

Remain on your knees and use the paddle to move further away before standing

up. You can return to a kneeling position at any time if a hazardous situation

presents itself.

• Keep your paddle in hand at all times.

• Make sure the water is deep enough so that the fin will not scrape the bottom.

• Start by kneeling in the center and pressing your hands on both sides of the

board for added stability.

• Stand up one foot at a time (use the paddle for balance).

• When you feel comfortable, start paddling forward.

MOORING/DOCKING

If you want to moor your SUP to a dock, make sure that:

• it is away from rocks or sharp objects.

• the water is deep enough to avoid damaging the hull.

NOTE

Never moor your SUP against a dock that is not equipped with hull-protecting

bumpers.

BASIC SUP PRINCIPLES

Learn and practice basic skills on a calm lake. Start slowly in open areas with

few people around. Take your SUP through rougher water only when you are

confident about your abilities.

For maximum comfort, make sure you have a paddle with a length that fits

your size. In general, you should add 8 to 10 inches to your height to determine

the length of the paddle. For example, if you are 5 feet 10 inches (70 inches)

tall, your paddle should be 78-80 inches long.

You should stand in the center of the board when you paddle. In calm water,

your feet should be positioned shoulder-width apart and pointing forward. In

waves or rougher water, you should move a foot towards the back of the board

and assume a surfing position. Practice moving your feet on the board and

changing positions to improve your balance.

The best way to make a quick turn with your board is to move your weight

back. The nose of the board will be out of the water and it will be much easier

to turn.

If you paddle on a large body of water, like a lake or ocean, be sure to use a

leash that connects you to your board. If you fall, your board could be pushed

away from you, leaving you alone in the water.

If you paddle on a river with a strong current, do not use an ankle leash. If

you fall, your board could drag you under the water and carry you down with

the current. Or the leash could get caught on something in the water (rocks,

branches, tree trunks, etc.) and cause you to fall off your board.

Be careful in windy conditions. Your body is completely exposed when standing

up and strong winds can greatly affect your movements and push you off

course. Adopting a kneeling or sitting position when faced with such conditions

can prevent the wind from affecting your course.

Never leave your board if you do not have a leash, even if you lose your

paddle. You can always paddle with your hands, which is an easier option than

trying to swim back. As well, if the wind picks up and you are not on your

board, it can float away faster than you can swim to retrieve it. This is why a

leash is so important.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Read the information outlined below before using your SUP. Failure to follow

these warnings and precautions could result in serious injury or death. Paddle

sports can be dangerous and physically demanding.

Every person using an SUP built or sold by Pelican is personally responsible for

determining if their abilities match the encountered conditions and should use

their best judgment as to the time and place to use the SUP. All individuals

who use a Pelican SUP assume all risks and accept all responsibility for any

damage or injury, including death, which may result from using or handling a

SUP. It is strongly recommended you take a course offered by an experienced

instructor on proper paddling techniques, boating security and first aid before

practicing this sport.

1. Weather conditions and water levels

WARNING

Check weather conditions and water levels before heading out.

Never go out in conditions that could affect your ability to steer the board,

including severe wind, heavy rain, thunderstorms, flooding, choppy water or

strong currents. If you’re already on the water, head to shore.

2. Personal flotation device (PFD)

WARNING

Always wear a U.S. Coast Guard and/or government approved life jacket (PFD).

Before you start to paddle, read the manufacturer’s documentation about the

lifejacket and familiarize yourself with how to properly wear it.

3. Alcohol and drugs

WARNING

Never use or consume alcohol, drugs or any other mind altering substance

that may affect your coordination, judgement or ability to safely and securely

operate your SUP.

4. Sound-signalling device

CAUTION

Always have a sound-signalling device with you.

The Coast Guard (or other government bodies) require that boaters are equipped to

alert other vessels to their presence. If possible, attach a device to your lifejacket.

5. Ability

WARNING

Do not exceed your ability.

Consult your physician before beginning your SUP training. Realistically assess your

physical stamina to determine how far and how long you can paddle or swim.

6. Traction on the SUP

CAUTION

The hull material is extremely slippery when wet.

Stay within the traction zone to avoid slipping. We recommend you wear non-

slip shoes for more traction. This will also protect your feet when launching and

if you walk on rocks.

7. Hypothermia

WARNING

Dress appropriately for weather conditions and, if necessary, wear a wetsuit.

Boating accidents in cold water are very dangerous. Hypothermia, the loss of

body heat due to immersion in cold water, can be fatal. Survival time can be as

little as 15 to 20 minutes in cold water.

8. Be accompanied

CAUTION

Never paddle alone.

It is always preferable to be accompanied on your outing in case of an

emergency or accident. You should know the level of physical ability of those

paddling with you and relevant medical conditions associated with each of them.

Always tell someone your plans, including your destination, how long you’ll be

gone, and how many people you’ll be with.

9. Always familiarize yourself with the body of water you intend to

navigate

WARNING

Scout unfamiliar water.

Find out what hours boating is permitted, if there are any known hazardous

conditions and where to get help quickly if there is an emergency or accident.

Check tidal changes and currents specific to your location. If you decide to go

down rapids, you need to scout in advance and, if necessary, portage your SUP

to bypass unfamiliar or dangerous zones.

10. Regulations and laws

CAUTION

Always follow Coast Guard regulations and/or boating and safety laws,

regulations and orders of various levels of government (including regional).

Consult the Coast Guard and/or authorities in various levels of government about

the proper handling of a boat and required and/or recommended equipment

such as lighting and sound alarms.

11. Drain plug

CAUTION

Make sure the drain plug at the rear of the SUP is firmly in place before putting

it in the water.

You may have to empty water that has accumulated due to condensation or

seepage.

12. Self protection

WARNING

Wear appropriate safety gear.

If you choose to go down rapids, you are voluntarily risking serious injury

or death. You must take the appropriate safety precautions, inspect your

equipment thoroughly, and wear appropriate safety gear. You should always

wear a lifejacket, a helmet and we strongly advise you to wear protection on

your arms, legs, etc. It is your responsibility to have the proper equipment and

familiarize yourself with the body of water before heading out.

WARNING

Never allow minors to use this board without adult supervision.

Never tow behind a boat.

Never use as a lifesaving device.

Never exceed the boat’s maximum weight.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

The best way to clean your SUP is by using a mixture of mild soap and warm

water. Do not use abrasives. Periodic cleaning will keep your boat looking like

new. Never try to paint your SUP because paint will not adhere to the hull.

NOTE

Do not remove the flotation foam installed in some models.

STORAGE

• Empty any water that has accumulated inside the board. Water may accumulate

between the hull and the deck as a result of condensation. This is not a defect.

To drain the water, remove the drain plug (on some models) and place the SUP

on its stern in an upright position.

• It is strongly recommended that you clean your SUP before storage by rinsing it

with lukewarm water to preserve its mint condition.

• The SUP can be temporarily stored on its side or in an upright position. Storing

it in either of these positions for an extended period of time could cause a

flattening or deformation of the hull.

• The best way to store your SUP is to place it on a flat surface. Never store it on

sawhorses or leave it resting on its fin for a long period of time.

• Do not leave straps or ropes tightly wound around the hull for extended periods,

especially in hot weather, as this can cause deformations.

• The hull surface, like the exterior finish of a car, will better retain its appearance

if the SUP is not exposed to the sun during long-term storage.

• Store your SUP away from any heat source (ex.: stove, radiator).

• Remove the drain plug for storage to regulate the air pressure inside de board.

• If your board is equipped with a fin, it is recommended that you remove the fin

before long term storage.

NOTE

Never hang your SUP by its front and rear handles. This could cause the hull to

deform over time.
