Sympl Supply Co. Surf Leash

While this leash is built for medium-to-large surf, it will work in smaller conditions. However, the 6mm cord diameter is slightly thicker than a dedicated small-wave leash, so you may notice a bit more drag than you would with a lighter, thinner cord.

The 6mm thickness strikes a balance between durability and drag reduction. It is robust enough to handle the tension of larger waves without snapping, yet thin enough to keep the leash from feeling heavy or cumbersome in the water.

Yes, the 2-inch neoprene cuff is designed specifically to prevent chafing and irritation. The soft material sits gently against your ankle, ensuring it remains comfortable even during extended sessions in the water.

This 7-foot leash is generally intended for shortboards or mid-length boards. If you are riding a longboard, you typically want a leash that matches or exceeds the length of your board to prevent it from snapping back at you.

Yes, the construction includes integrated swivels at the connection points. This allows the cord to rotate freely, which significantly reduces the chance of the leash wrapping around your ankle or fin during your session.
