Bodyboard Leashes: Safety, Comfort, and Freedom in the Waves

(14 products)

The bodyboard leash: a simple yet essential accessory

Many practitioners quickly discover that a good bodyboard leash is an integral part of their gear. Its role is simple: to keep the board close after a wipeout to avoid losing it in the waves and to limit risks for other surfers in the water.

Since 1976, we have consistently recommended using a suitable leash. It is one of the least expensive accessories for bodyboarding, but also one of the most important for practicing under good conditions.

Why use a leash in bodyboarding?

A bodyboard can be quickly swept away by a wave after a wipeout. Without a leash, it becomes difficult to retrieve your gear, and some situations can become dangerous when other surfers are nearby.

The leash not only secures the board but also saves energy by avoiding long recoveries after each wipeout. This extra safety significantly improves comfort during sessions.

Wrist leash or bicep leash?

Both systems exist and cater to different preferences. Some riders appreciate the simplicity of the wrist leash, while others prefer the bicep leash for greater freedom of movement during paddling and maneuvers.

The choice mainly depends on the rider's habits, level, and personal preferences. In both cases, the goal remains the same: to maintain a reliable connection with the board without hindering practice.

An essential element of cohesive gear

The leash fits into a larger set. A Bodyboard suitable for the rider's level forms the base of the gear, while Bodyboard Fins enhance propulsion and positioning in the waves.

Riders looking to start with a cohesive set can also check out our Bodyboard Packs, specially designed to pair essential gear for practice.

Maintaining your leash through the seasons

Like any accessory exposed to saltwater, sand, and UV rays, a leash deserves a minimum of maintenance. Rinsing it with fresh water after each session helps preserve the materials and extend its lifespan.

Regularly checking the cord, attachments, and Velcro also helps avoid unpleasant surprises during the most intense sessions.
