Retailer Information

The bump on the underside of a board is a normal part of the construction of an inflatable paddleboard. The drop stitching is cut out to insert the valve and this can show as a small bump on the underside of the board. This can be found on every inflatable paddleboard and is nothing to worry about. The bump can often be a perfect circle or a misshapen circle of varying sizes, either of these is perfectly normal.


Customer Response



It sounds like you have found what we call 'The Bump'! 

Do not be concerned, it is on every single inflatable board on the planet and is formed when the threads are removed to insert the valve on the top of the board. It is absolutely nothing to worry about, but if you are still concerned, then watch George explain it in a little more detail below.
