FAQs

Is this board suitable for children?

The 41-inch size is generally ideal for teenagers and adults, though children may find it large but stable.

Does it come with a leash?

Yes, a safety leash is included with the purchase.

Can I use this board for professional surfing?

This board is designed for beginners and recreational use; it lacks the specialized stiffening agents and materials found in professional-grade boards.

How should I store it?

Store it flat in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent foam degradation.

How do I clean the board?

Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and wipe with a soft cloth to remove salt and debris.

Troubleshooting

The board feels slippery

Apply a thin layer of bodyboard wax to the deck area where your torso and elbows rest to improve grip.

Leash feels loose or disconnects

Ensure the leash plug is fully tightened and that the cord is securely looped through the anchor point.

Dents appearing on the deck

Dents are common in XPE boards due to pressure; avoid leaning heavily on one specific point to distribute weight evenly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup for the Nalu bodyboard is straightforward: simply attach the included leash to the designated plug on the board before entering the water. To ensure longevity, always rinse the board with fresh water after use to remove salt and sand. Store the board in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight, as excessive UV exposure can degrade the XPE deck material over time. Avoid placing heavy objects on top of the board during storage to prevent permanent indentations or warping of the core. Check the leash connection point periodically to ensure it remains secure before each session.
