FAQs

What age and weight range is the GromStick paddle board suitable for?

The GromStick is designed for children under 60kg rather than a specific age, as suitability depends on weight and size. Most children between approximately 6 and 12 years old fall within this range, though individual development varies. The three-piece adjustable paddle can be set to different lengths as your child grows, so you won't need to replace it each year.

How quickly can I inflate the board and is a pump included?

Yes, the complete package includes a hand pump with pressure gauge. Inflation typically takes 5 to 8 minutes to reach the maximum 18 PSI, depending on pumping speed. The board is ready to use once it reaches the recommended pressure, and deflation is quick for convenient storage and transport to UK paddling spots.

Can the included paddle be adjusted for different heights?

Yes, the included fibreglass paddle is a three-piece adjustable design that can be set to different lengths. This allows you to match the paddle height to your child's current size and adjust it as they grow, eliminating the need to purchase a new paddle each season.

What water conditions is this kids paddle board designed for?

The GromStick performs in calm to moderate water and is suitable for UK lakes, gentle rivers and sheltered coastal areas. For safety, young riders should always stay in calm water environments whilst building their skills and confidence. Adult supervision is always recommended when children are paddling, regardless of experience level.

What safety features are included with this paddle board package?

The package includes a coiled leash with quick-release waist belt, which keeps the board connected to your child whilst allowing rapid release if needed. The wide 30-inch platform provides inherent stability to reduce falls. Adult supervision is essential when children are on the water, as it is with any water sports activity.
