How to tie leash lines to prevent a common form of surf leash failure.
Tying a leash string to a board seems simple but we show you the best way to attach it to your board to keep your leash secure.
Leash plugs can have sharp edges that cause your leash string to fray. The string should be replaced if there is visible damage. The best way is to make a tip and thread both sides of the leash loop under the leash plug, then thread the loop under the knot so the leash knot gets pulled down into the plug. That way the knot is not in the way when attaching the leash and does not weaken the closure on the rail saver.
At Blue Planet we like to use 600 lbs test strength spectra line, a very strong, abrasion resistant and thin line that is very effective. Make sure to leave over ½ inch of line past the knot and make sure to fully tighten the knot before going in the water to keep the line from slipping. Blue
Planet boards come with two leash plugs which spread out the load when the board gets pulled by a powerful wave. I personally use a second backup line. Make sure the leash line is not too long as it can pull through the rail of the board. The line should be the right length that the nylon/ velcro rail saver protects the rail of the board.
