Am I dumb or is my Duotone valve broken?

Am I dumb or is my Duotone valve broken?

Hey guys

I bought a used 2023 Duotone unit and I never had Duotone wings. I bought the adapter but somehow it doesn’t stick correctly and when I remove it the air goes out from the inflatable valve.

I thought that I needed to insert and turn it clock wise to inflate and then later counter clock wise to make the valve “lock”. I’ve tried all of the possible ways.. any ideias?

Edit: thanks for the suggestions but I think it is indeed broken because when I turn it clock wise, it just keeps turning and it doesn’t lock, I compared with a spare one that I have and on that one, when I turn clock wise it locks, similar to when you close a water bottle 🫩

Hey guys

I live close to a very nice place that I can do wingskating when I'm not on water but I've been getting some mixed recommendations, asking ChatGPT, longboard with bigger wheels is the recommendation but I've read some people say that Surfskate is a better choice

For me I value more stability over super carving angles and such, for those that wingskate, would you go for a Surfskate or longboard? Or something else?

Thanks
