How to install Thigh-Braces

With thigh-braces you improve the contact with your kayak which facilitates paddling in rough waters as well as surf and rolling.
The Point65 thigh braces have been designed to fit in the following models:
Nemo, Picnic, Five-O-Five and SeaCruiser.

It is also possible to fit the thigh braces to a Sea Rover, but the result will not be as perfect.

The The Thigh Brace package should include:
2 Thigh Braces, left and right
4 pcs Screw JIS-M6x25mm
2 Pads

The Thigh Braces are designed to allow a higher degree of controll and a snug fit in the kayak. The Thigh Braces allow for easier maneouvering in rough seas and performing eskimo rolls.


Installation
The template in the installation guide (you can download it at the bottom of this page) will help you drill the hole in the exact location. The first hole (closest to the seat) should be placed 60cm from the center of the back of the cockpit (see image 1.)

1 .Use a 5mm diameter drill and make sure that you do not drill farther than a few millimeters after pushing through the 2 layers of plastic in the cockpit rim, otherwise you might damage the deck on the other side of the rim.
 
2. Remove the protective pape from the adhesive side of the pads and place them on the thighbraces (image 2).
 
3. After the holes have been drilled you fasten the screws as tightly as possible (see image 4) to avoid leakage through the screw holes.
 
4. Remember that the narrower end should point towards the back.

Good Luck!
