Best Surf Board Leashes Buying Guide

Before choosing the best surfboard leash you should consider following options:

1. Length: The standard length of a surfboard leash is 8 feet. Depending on the surf spot you are visiting, you may need a longer or shorter leash.

At crowded breaks, you may want a longer leash to prevent people from stepping on it. At spots with less people, you may want a shorter leash so it is easier to maneuver around in the water.

2. Strength: When you are shopping for a leash, you will want to find one that is made of a durable, high-strength material.

Some materials that are used to make surfboard leashes are nylon, polyester, polypropylene, and polyethylene.

The thickness of the material is also important to consider. The thicker the material, the stronger the leash will be.

3. Breaking Strength: This is the amount of force that the leash can withstand before breaking.

The breaking strength of your leash should match the strength of your surfboard. If your surfboard is lightweight, you will want a lighter leash. If your surfboard is heavy, you will want a stronger leash.
