What leash?

We are here in the longboard world, so in a world where moving around the board is part of the game. The central area of ​​these boards is a transition area. You go there either to go to the tail and drive your board from behind, to turn. Either to rush forward (in cross steps please!) to hold the nose with your toes. You will therefore understand that to facilitate these movements and avoid getting tangled in the cord, a knee leash is therefore essential.

We usually use a leash which is the length of the board or just below. For example a 9’ leash on a 9’2. Indeed, the lengths announced are those of the cord, with which must be added the fasteners. And the leash stretches under tension, so we have room before the board in the nose.

The diameter is also an important point: yes we go faster but we risk breaking it in an overhead wave. And at the end of the leash, with a noserider, don’t forget that there is volume, so a leash with a rope diameter of 7mm is the most common.

How to properly secure your leash?

The leash serves as both the lifeline for the stand-up paddler and ensures that they keep their equipment close. Properly securing it to the board is crucial. Here is an instructional tutorial to learn how to securely attach your leash:

1. First, check the knot of the leash cord and tighten it perfectly. This knot is your guarantee of security! Then, pass the loop of the cord through the leash plug, so as to obtain two equal loops on each side of the metal bar. The lark’s head knot on the leash plug is not a good alternative to this technique because it lengthens the cord too much, which could damage the rail of your board.

2. Pass your leash rail saver strap through the two loops thus formed with the cord.

3) Close the “rail saver” Velcro properly. The two strands of the cord should pass through the fold of the strap. As the name suggests, the rail saver of your leash is a section of the strap that should be the only part pressing against your board.

If you are using a GONG inflatable board, a stainless steel ring allows you to attach the rail protection directly to your board. It is important to never use the cord on an inflatable board for the same reason that you should not unnecessarily extend the cord on a rigid board.

Next, all you have to do is attach the other end of the leash to your body. Ensure that the leash attachment is comfortable and secure by fastening it tightly around your knee or ankle, depending on the type of leash chosen. Don’t forget to guide the cord toward your back; this will prevent it from getting tangled in your feet and missing out on waves! 😆

Important reminder, again for those who do not read user’s manuals ;), a leash deteriorates quickly, despite appearances, and must be renewed at least every year. Replace it at the first signs of wear. It could be the worn hook and loop or micro cuts in the rope. It is for your safety, the safety of those around you, and the durability of your board. Legally, your leash is your life jacket since it connects you to an unsinkable object.
