Dakine Kainui Team Leash

When you are staring down double-overhead waves, this is the leash you want tethered to your ankle. It prioritizes absolute, heavy-duty security over lightweight minimalism, meaning you get a slightly bulkier cord that offers total peace of mind when the ocean gets serious.
