Safety guide

Train safe: read before you paddle

From the warning tag that comes with every kit. The trainer is made for recreational paddle training in a controlled setting. Read this before your first session.

On the board

  • Wax your surfboard before you start.
  • Never stand behind the surfer. The board pulls back.
  • Never get off the board while the band is under tension. The board will snap back.
  • Never put the band around your neck or body. It attaches to your leash string only.

Before every session

  • Inspect the band for wear, damage or deterioration. If you find any, do not use it. Replace it.
  • Secure the anchor. Twist the ground anchor fully in, or loop the band around a fixed point that cannot move, such as a fence post, a railing or a starting block outside the pool.
  • Do not overload the band or stretch it past its normal range. An overstretched band can break.

Where and who

  • Keep a clear area, away from people, animals and sharp objects.
  • Train in a controlled spot. Skip bad weather and busy areas.
  • One person on the trainer at a time.
  • Children and new users need adult supervision.

After you train

  • Store the band in a cool, dry place, out of direct sunlight and extreme heat or cold.

Frequently asked questions

Still have a question? Email derek@365waves.com.

How long does setup take?

Less than 2 minutes. Twist the ground anchor down, clip the band on, attach the Velcro strap to your surfboard leash string, slide the adjustable clip to set your distance and resistance, and start paddling. The full 7 steps are listed above.

What comes in the kit?

An adjustable 14-foot resistance band, a Velcro strap, a gunmetal stainless steel carabiner with swivel, an adjustable surf clip, a twist-down ground anchor and tool, and a vented travel bag.

Does it fit any surfboard?

Yes. The Velcro strap attaches to any surfboard leash string, then doubles as a storage strap when you roll the band up. You train on your own board; a surfboard is not included in the kit.

How long is the resistance band, and how do I change the resistance?

The band is 14 feet long. Slide the adjustable surf clip up or down the band to set your distance and resistance, so you can match it to your paddle strength and the water you are training in.
