You can also perform the pinch test. When you pinch the center of the paddle board, it should be hard to push in. If it’s easy to push in, then it’s likely not inflated enough and you’ll need to add more air. Keep your arms straight and twist from your torso as you paddle. Push down on the paddle grip with your top hand rather than pulling the paddle back with your lower arm. It’s helpful for some people to think of pulling the board past the paddle rather than pulling the paddle through the water.Although falling off your paddle board can be frustrating, it’s important to remember that even the most experienced of paddle boarders will fall off every now and again and it is all part of the process of learning.Falling out of your kayak is very unlikely but of course, it can still happen, especially for beginners.

The lack of pressure buildup is caused by a lack of lubricant in the pump or unevenly distributed lubricant. If the pump won’t build pressure all you need to do is add some sort of lubricant, like Vaseline. Unscrew the top of the pump and add a glob of lubricant to the cylindrical piece on the inside. Start by checking the power supply and inspecting wiring connections, as many pump failures stem from electrical issues. Low pressure or erratic flow may indicate clogs in the pipes or impeller, which can be resolved by clearing any obstructions.If the switch isn’t functioning correctly, the pump may not receive the signal to turn on, leading to low or no water pressure. Other issues with the pressure switch include an improperly set pressure setting, faulty wiring, or a defective switch.To reset your pump, locate the reset switch (usually near the pressure tank) and turn it off for 60 seconds before turning it back on. If the pump doesn’t restart, you may need professional assistance.
