Subjective requirements for WW 2 white-water kayaking:
Knowledge of all basic forward and backward strokes, stee-
ring and command of the boat. Ability to evaluate the difficulty
of the stream and level height. Knowledge of simple re-
scue. Physical fitness for longer trips, swimming.
Technical equipment for WW 2:
Agile, open boats (slalom types), boats with decking are more
suitable; a life jacket with a minimum displacement of 7.5 kg.
ATTENTION
Pay extra attention to your choice of flotation life-jacket.
The flotation life-jacket should have a tag bearing de-
tails of its flotation capabilities and safety certification.
5. Storage of the Boat – See Picture 4
Open the valves and release the air from all the chambers.
Deflate the seats and the front foot-rest. Open the valves and
release the air from the main chambers.
The kayak can be deflated more quickly by rolling it in the di-
rection of the valves. No sharp objects should remain in the
kayak. When deflated, lay out the kayak in such manner that
the bottom lies on the ground and the sidewall cylinders are
folded inwards. Then fold both sidewall cylinders to thirds over
the bottom of the kayak and then fold the kayak from the bow
towards the valves. Insert the folder kayak into the transporta-
tion bag. Expel the air from the bag, roll up the insertion end
and fasten it with clips.

6. Treatment and Storage

The rubber surface coating of the boat is sensitive to oils, gas-
oline, toluene, acetone, kerosene and similar thinning agents.
Prior to storing a dirty boat, wash it down with warm soapy
water. Rinse the boat with fresh water after using the boat in
seawater. It is recommended to check the state of the inflation
valves and the safety relief valves. If a valve is not airtight, it is
possible to unscrew the valve body from the boat with the use
of a special valve-key and clean its membrane with a strong jet
of water or compressed air. Prior to storage, it is recommend-
ed to rub the surface of the canoe with an agent intended for
the treatment of such surfaces, which has cleaning properties,
and which impregnates the material to prevent further dirtying,
or which is capable of forming a protective UV-filter. Never use
agents containing silicon when treating your boat. Store the
clean and dry product in a dark dry place at a temperature
of (15 – 35) °C, at least 1.5 m from any radiant heat source
and out of the reach of rodents. During longterm storage, it
is recommended to inflate the boat for 24 hours from time to
time to avoid fatiguing the fold lines. It is also recommended
to have the boat serviced by the manufacturer's authorized
service station at least once every two or three years.
Proper care and treatment of the boat will increase its
service life.

8. Boat Repairs

You can easily repair a damaged boat yourselves by means of
the accompanying gluing set.
Gluing:
mark out the damaged area on the boat and choose an
l
appropriately sized patch;
the surfaces of both patch and place to be glued must be
l
clean, dry and without traces of old glue;
we recommend degreasing both surfaces with acetone in
l
order to achieve a perfect bond;
spread a thin layer of glue on both surfaces to be glued
l
and repeat this step once the first layer has dried;
after the second layer has dried, press the patch firmly on
l
the damaged place, weigh down or use a rolling pin on
a flat surface.
For minor repairs (punctures), it is possible to re-inflate the
boat and continue using it after waiting for approx. 30 minutes;
after more serious repairs, you should wait for 24 hours before
using the repaired boat. Complicated repairs should be per-
formed by the manufacturer or at authorized service stations.
Guarantee repairs and post-guarantee repairs are pro-
vided by the manufacturer:
