Before using the board

(See "Awake Link guide" article for more information)

2. Connect to the battery using Awake Link application

The RÄVIK is shipped with the ride mode set to “ECO” mode. When connecting to the app, you will at first read and accept the conditions and waiver. We recommend connecting to the Awake App prior to your first ride in order to unlock the full potential of your new board or customize the riding experience to suit your preference including accepting the waiver. See the “Awake Link guide” article for details on how to connect.

3. Binding installation

Before installing the bindings, you will need to know your preferred stance - regular (left foot forward) or goofy (right foot forward). This will be whatever feels more natural to you. If you are unsure, have someone push you from behind, with your arms initially held alongside your torso, and whichever foot goes forward will usually be your front foot.

To install the bindings, position each binding according to your preferred angle and spacing, ensuring the fastening holes are located above the inserts along the center of the board.

Fasten the bindings to the board using the provided M6 x 15 screws and Allen Key. Make sure the bindings are tightly secured to the board before riding. You may need to adjust the angle and spacing of the bindings, test, and iterate in order to find the stance that feels right for you.

The use of bindings is optional depending on your preferred riding experience; however, we recommend using the bindings if you’re just getting started.

4. Fin installation

The Awake RÄVIK is supplied with custom MFCTM fins. Awake highly advises riding the Awake RÄVIK with fins installed. The Awake RÄVIK accepts single tab FCS type standard surf fins should you choose to replace them in order to adjust the handling characteristics. The fins can also be removed for transportation.

To install fins in the Awake RÄVIK, insert the fin in the slot. Gently tighten using the provided fin key, the fin should not move once tightened. Repeat this procedure in reverse to remove fins.
