Dakine Longboard Ankle Leash

This leash is specifically engineered for waves up to eight feet. If you are regularly surfing in conditions larger than that, you should look for a heavier-duty leash with a thicker cord diameter to ensure your board stays connected.

The 9-10 foot length is optimized for longboarding to provide enough slack for cross-stepping and walking the board without tripping over the cord. It keeps the leash out of your way while ensuring you stay connected to your board.

The cuff features hydrophobic neoprene padding, which is designed to resist water absorption and minimize friction against your skin. This helps prevent irritation and keeps the cuff comfortable even during extended time in the water.

The rail saver acts as a buffer between the leash cord and the sharp edge of your surfboard's tail. It prevents the leash from cutting into the fiberglass or finish of your board, and because it is detachable, you can easily replace it if it wears out over time.

Yes, the marine-grade stainless steel swivels are designed to rotate freely, which significantly reduces the chance of the leash wrapping around your ankle or the board's tail. They are also corrosion-resistant, making them durable for saltwater use.
