INNOVATIVE CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGIES:
NEW HEAT WELDED RAIL – BONDED FOR LIFE
– New welding technology turns 2 pieces of materials into a single solid unit resulting in an extra strong Mechanical Bond.
– A mechanical bond is stronger, lasts longer and better for the environment.
– Welding creates a complete airtight seam without the risk of glue weakening over time.
DELUXE DOUBLE CHAMBER – SAFER, STIFFER, LIGHTER
-The Deluxe Double Chamber technology brings the inflatable boards one step closer to a hardboard feeling. The Double Chamber stiffens the board significantly, thanks to the double side walls around the second chamber. The second chamber also offers extra safety floatation for any emergencies.
