Dimensions, material and load capacity
The board is 335 cm long and 89 cm wide. Its width helps with balance, which can be particularly useful for beginners learning the basics. More experienced riders can also use it for recreational outings or light training.
The PVC construction is designed to give the inflated board the stiffness and durability needed for everyday use. Its 15 cm thickness, together with its dimensions, contributes to its load capacity.
The maximum load is 180 kg. When calculating the total, include the rider’s weight as well as any luggage and equipment. The capacity alone does not guarantee a comfortable ride for two people: weight distribution and water conditions matter too.
Who is it suitable for?
A wider, more stable board can help beginners as they learn to paddle standing up. The Flypark Waverite is also recommended for children and young athletes and can be used for family outings or recreational exercise.
Children should be supervised by an adult on the water. Conditions, distance from shore and how the board is used should be appropriate to the rider’s experience. Choose a leash suited to the environment: on moving water, a snagged leash can be dangerous, so a suitable quick-release system is important. Use an appropriate buoyancy aid as well.
Recommended inflation pressure
Inflate the Flypark Waverite to 12–15 PSI. A properly inflated board is stiffer, flexes less and is easier to control. If the pressure is too low, paddling may take more effort and stability may suffer. Check the pressure before use and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Carrying and storage
When packed, the paddleboard measures 98 × 41 × 23 cm. Before travelling, check that it will fit in your car or designated storage space. The included backpack is intended for carrying the packed board.
What’s included?
- Adjustable aluminium paddle – its length can be adjusted to the rider’s height and paddling style.
- High-pressure pump – for inflating the board to the recommended 12–15 PSI.
- Backpack – for carrying the packed paddleboard and accessories.
- Safety leg leash – connects the rider to the board when appropriate for the conditions.
- Waterproof phone case – helps protect a phone from water.
- Three removable fins – help the board track through the water.
The Flypark Waverite combines a wide board with accessories for recreational use. When deciding whether it is right for you, consider the total load, the space available for transport and the conditions in which you plan to paddle.
