Sup Pump

A: Dual action pumps use two separate pumping chambers per drive rod. On the forward stroke, it pushes fluid out of the first chamber, and draws fluid into the other.

A: Theoretically it's even possible to burst one, if you use the wrong air pump and/or exceed the paddle board manufacturer's psi recommendations. However, catastrophic over inflation is unlikely to be an issue unless you use an air compressor, rather than a manual or electric sup pump.

A: A double-action hand pump is illustrated in Figure 3-10. This type of pump is used in some applications as a source of emergency hydraulic power or for testing hydraulic systems.

A: Generally, more performant than inflatable boards, they glide easily and quickly over the water and capable of gliding further and faster with only a few strokes. Made of fibre glass, they're of better quality than inflatables and are generally more durable (when properly cared for).

A: It is okay to leave your SUP inflated as long as you take a few precautions before storing it away. First, find a cool, dry storage area and preferably a paddle board rack that is mounted away from other objects. Its recommended that this storage area remains at a steady cool temperature throughout the entire year.

A: The Double Action Air Pump is perfect for topping off towables and other inflatables for the perfect fill. This is the perfect tube pump for boats because it delivers a continuous stream of air on both the up and down strokes for more efficient filling.
