Board / artwork / accessory scopeBefore price comparison
State whether your brief calls for an inflatable or rigid configuration, the requested material and finished dimensions. Ask the supplier to identify its proposed construction, model and tolerance rather than treating a catalog label as a confirmed specification.
List the board, paddle, fin, pump, carry pack and any other requested accessory separately. Record pieces per set and carton pack ratio; a board-only quotation cannot be ranked against a complete kit until missing components are costed.
Capacity, rated load, inflation pressure and suitability remain supplier questions. Request exact-item test evidence, instructions and limitations for the proposed model. Appearance, buoyancy language and a family-level document do not establish approval or a safety outcome.
Keep a buyer requirement, a supplier statement and a reviewed document in separate columns. Missing values stay open for clarification; an attractive unit price cannot resolve them.
Use the specification review worksheet →Give quantities by graphic or colorway and explain whether you need neutral packaging or buyer artwork. Request a proof revision and identify who approves it. Treat the packing list and carton dimensions as quotation fields requiring confirmation.
Review inquiry configurationsExplain the planned water activity, intended users and operating context as requirements for supplier review. A group-use request does not establish product suitability; obtain model-specific limitations and decide what independent review is needed before selecting an option.
