When you finish with your board, put it back in your case. Especially if you ride in salt water wash it off. Hang your vest out to dry dont let it sit there in water.

Don`t put your board in the sun to dry. It will mess up the color and is also not good for your bindings.. In my opinion.!

To add to the above sit you board on its side to let the water drain from under the bindings.

dont leave your board in you car, the heat breaks it down, same with the bindings.

I just rinse everything with clean water after every runs... DONT dip it in a pool thoe, the chlorine(sp?) will eat everything up...
