What are the differences between our Inflatable bodyboards? The Primary differences between the Surfster Patented boards are in two areas: • One piece boards - Such as the WaveStar which features a unique dual layer laminate of PVC and Nylon • Two-layer boards (All other Models which we call SDD (Surfster Dual Density) which give the added benefit of: • A more comfortable ride - you are riding on nylon and neoprene • The board can be pumped up harder for a faster, stiffer ride offering more control and feel in the surf • The inner bladder is replaceable What is the difference between the S3 Limited and the XK? Besides the graphics which needs no explanation, the XK is made of a slightly heavier PVC. This allows for more buoyancy and toughness. The XK would be better for people over 200 pounds and can be used for rental companies. What is the difference between the Blade Pro and the S3 Limited? The Blade Pro has added internal blades offering a stiffer, faster ride. It also has a semi-slick bottom making turning trick easier in the surf. The Blade Pro also features a molded EVA front panel with molded knuckle guards. The outer skin of the Blade Pro is thicker for added durabiity. The Blade Pro is also sold with a Surfster Hand pump and a straight leash. What is the new Jbay? The Jbay is an eciting new Surfster Model which features new side wings to really hole the rider in place in the surf and wow does it work well. The Jbay also has a slick bottom and a full neoprene deck. And the best thing yet, the Jbay can also be used in the snow as a snow toboggan. Supplied with a pump and coiled leash. Inflation Tips Inflate your board so that there are no signs of wringles or creases in the board so that the board is stiff enough. If the board can be folded backwards easily it needs more air. The best way to inflate your board is with a mini Surfster Hand pump or any small hand or foot pump. If you leave you board in the sun for a long period of time, you may need to deflate the board just a bit. |
