× The general rule is to choose a leash of the same length as the surfboard, to avoid possible injuries. In small waves we can choose a leash a little shorter than the board, while in big waves, it is better to choose a leash a little longer than the board. For the diameter, the standard is 7mm, but in small waves we can choose a leash with reduced diameter (Comp) to reduce the weight, while in larger waves, it is advisable to choose a leash with a superior diameter, to obtain a better resistance.
