However, if you already have some material and you are not sure how to preserve it, here are some tips to keep in mind:

Always avoid sun exposure - for aesthetic purposes it is crucial to take this care, as the sun has a tendency to corrode the color. Also the fibers start to get damaged, which can start to create some cracks.

Store properly - regarding the board, it should not be leaning against the wall or the floor. The ideal is to always be inside a board cover and protected by a rack system, and if possible with padding at the base. With regard to the suit, as well as the board, it also has to be rinsed with fresh water and without detergents, so as not to retain any type of salt that could damage the fibers of the product. Once it's completely dry, just pack it up and wait for the next adventure.

Maintenance and repair- it is common for accidents and regular damage to happen with your equipment, you have to always be careful because some can be serious and definitive, sometimes a small break can cause water to enter and damage the quality of your board .
