Do you need a bodyboard leash?

A bodyboard leash is a crucial piece of equipment for any bodyboarder hitting the waves. The leash connects you to your board, ensuring you don’t lose it in the surf. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned pro, either leash can make your time in the water safer and more enjoyable. A general rule when choosing your surfboard leash is that it should be the same length (or slightly longer if your board is in-between sizes) as the board it’s being used on. For example, if your surfboard is 6’0, use a 6’0 leash. If it’s 6’6 Surfboard, grab a 7’0” Leash.Wind and waves can quickly move your board away from you if you fall off, so using a leash that tethers your SUP to you is highly recommended. When using a leash, one end of it attaches to a dedicated point on the board and the other typically wraps around your ankle or calf.
