Material Check

We inspect all incoming PVC, drop-stitch fabric, valves, and accessories to ensure they meet our durability and performance standards.

Air Pressure Test

Each board is inflated and placed in a controlled environment for 24-hour airtightness testing. Any leakage is immediately addressed and reprocessed.

02

Visual Surface Inspection

Our QC team checks for surface defects, printing accuracy, and alignment of handles, fins, D-rings, and other components.

03

Dimension & Shape Verification

We confirm that each board meets the specified length, width, thickness, and rocker profile before packaging.

Functionality Test

Boards are randomly selected for real-use simulation - inflation, deflation, valve performance, and fin installation - to guarantee smooth user experience.
