πŸ› οΈ How to Assemble the Air Series (100, 150, 230) – Step-by-Step Guide

The Air Series (100, 150, and 230) is designed to be lightweight, portable, and extremely beginner-friendly. Even though the inflatable design makes transport easy, proper assembly is critical for safe, stable riding on the water.

This guide walks you through the full assembly process for all Air Series sizes using terminology found in the official manuals β€” without referring to any specific brand name.

:white_check_mark: 2. Inflate the Air Series Ring

  1. Place the inflatable ring over the board cabin, starting from the front.

  2. Slide it backward until the ring locks fully into the cabin contour.

  3. Press the valve pin to make sure it moves freely.

  4. Insert the pump nozzle and rotate clockwise.

  5. Inflate to 13–15 psi.

  6. Remove the nozzle and tighten the valve cap.

:speech_balloon: Tip: Never exceed recommended PSI β€” it affects stability and can damage the ring.

:white_check_mark: 3. Install the Mast / Power Module

  1. Flip the board upside down on a soft surface.

  2. Insert the power module into the bottom mount (mast pointing forward).

  3. Ensure cables and sealing rings are seated correctly.

  4. Secure with M6 screws (x4).

  5. Tighten evenly to avoid misalignment.

:pushpin: Air 230 note: The wider board cabin provides extra stability β€” but the installation process is identical across all Air models.

:white_check_mark: 4. Attach the Front Wing & Stabilizer

Depending on the wing set (Cruiser / Sport / Race), use the correct screw types:

  • A screws – longest

  • B screws – medium

  • C screws – shortest

Steps:

  1. Mount the front wing on the fuselage.

  2. Use the designated A/B screws (varies by wing size).

  3. Attach the stabilizer at the rear using C screws.

  4. Tighten with a T30 Torx tool.

:light_bulb: Beginners: The larger front wings (1500–1750) are the most stable and easiest to lift on Air boards.

:white_check_mark: 5. Insert & Secure the Battery

  1. Open the battery hatch by lifting and rotating the latch 90Β°.

  2. Check the sealing ring for sand, dirt, or moisture.

  3. Insert the battery (label up).

  4. Connect the positive and negative sockets by matching colors.

  5. Close the hatch and rotate latch back to lock.

  6. The board will power on automatically with a startup tone.

:warning: Note: A small amount of moisture inside the cabin is normal.
Excess water = clean sealing ring β†’ reseal β†’ recheck.

:white_check_mark: 6. Pair & Mount the Remote Controller

  1. Charge the controller to above 50%.

  2. Power on using a 3-second long press.

  3. Select Search for Device.

  4. Choose your Air Series board from the list.

  5. Pair β†’ confirm battery levels β†’ select riding mode.

:pushpin: Air 230 users:
If using the handlebar, attach the controller to the handlebar base until it β€œclicks” into place.

:white_check_mark: 7. Optional Handlebar Installation (Air 230 Only)

  1. Insert the handlebar into the base at a slight angle.

  2. Rotate the lock knob to secure it.

  3. Adjust the height (do not exceed the max line).

  4. Close the adjustment clamp until fully locked.

Beginners love the Air 230 handlebar β€” it provides direct stability, quick confidence, and easier first rides.
