• Air escaping
• Water inside the kayak

• Check the outer skin and, if necessary, repair
any holes.
• Check drain holes. Drain off water (only do
this on land!) and close drain holes with drain
hole plugs.
Fault / remedy
What to do if air is escaping
You must first find the hole or place from which the air is escaping.
1. First check the valves. If you can detect air escaping here, clean the valve. Check whether the
lower rubber disc is covering the holes or whether it has perhaps been accidentally folded over.
If that does not work, replace the valve. A spare valve is included.
2. If no air is escaping from the valves, check the hull. To do this, take a large amount of water
mixed with commercially available washing up liquid. Work this up into an even, fine foam. Now
spread this foam very thinly over the entire kayak skin with a sponge. If bubbles of air appear
anywhere, there is a hole there.
3. It may be possible to repair small holes or tears with the repair kit. It contains four different
patches to match the different materials in the kayak skin. Select the appropriate patch and cut
it according to the size of the hole or tear. A patch should overlap the hole by approx. 1 cm on all
sides. You can buy the appropriate adhesive and additional patches from specialist boat and
camping equipment retailers.
