Description

The Starboard Straight SUP Leash is the primary choice for SUP surfing and wave riding. Unlike coiled leashes, the straight design ensures the board stays at a safe distance during a wipeout, preventing the board from rebounding back toward the paddler.

Key Performance Features

  • Anti-Rebound Design: The straight cord prevents the "spring" effect common with coiled leashes, maintaining a safe distance between you and the board in surf conditions.

  • Double Stainless Steel Swivels: Features high-quality swivels at both the cuff and the board attachment point to prevent the leash from tangling around your legs.

  • Heavy-Duty Construction: Built with a high-grade 7mm to 9mm urethane cord, providing the strength required to secure large SUPs in powerful waves.

  • Comfort Padded Cuff: The interior is lined with soft materials to prevent chafing during long sessions.

  • Integrated Key Pocket: Includes a small, secure Velcro pouch within the cuff for car or locker keys.

  • Safety Release: Equipped with a quick-release pull tab for fast detachment in emergency situations.


Placement Options

Placement Best Use Case Benefit
Ankle Cuff General Surfing Provides a natural connection point and is the standard for most wave riders.
Calf (Knee) Cuff Performance & Racing Keeps the leash higher and further away from your feet, reducing the risk of tripping during cross-stepping or board movement.

Technical Specifications

  • Lengths: Available in 6ft, 8ft, and 10ft variants (it is recommended to use a leash at least as long as your board).

  • Cord Thickness: 7mm (Standard) or 9mm (Heavy Duty).

  • Materials: High-grade Urethane, Stainless Steel, and Neoprene.

Expert Verdict: For flat-water paddling, a coiled leash is preferred to reduce drag; however, for any form of surf or wave exploration, a straight leash is a mandatory safety requirement to manage the board's momentum safely.
