Our comfortable ankle leash is a great tool while you are paddling flatwater or ocean surfing. Not only is it convenient to save you swim time chasing your board if you fall off when paddling in flatwater and or ocean surf, it can save your life if you are paddling in open or cold water. It is very important that you never use an ankle leash on a river or fast water as it can be detrimental and even fatal. For moving water safety, please check out the releasable leashes.
