Frequently Asked Questions about Surf Leashes

If you're looking to buy a new leash, you should consider the length of your surfboard. This way, you'll prevent the board from flipping towards you when you fall. Additionally, you should choose the leash based on the type of waves you'll be riding. For example, for small waves and small boards, a comp/lite surf leash is ideal. For larger waves and big boards, a regular surf leash is perfect. You can find both options at the Mundo Surf online store, where you can choose from different models that suit your needs.
If you've purchased a leash for surfing, follow these steps to attach it: First, insert the leash plug at the tail of the surfboard. Thread the cord through and try to tie it securely. If the cord is rubbing against the fins, you may need to trim it. We provide more detailed instructions on our blog.
A surf leash is a cord that connects your surfboard to you, preventing it from getting away after riding a wave or experiencing a wipeout. It's an essential element for surfing. There are different types of leashes, such as regular or big wave leashes, comp/lite leashes, and longboard leashes, each designed to suit different wave types, board sizes, and specific needs. We explain in detail on our blog how to choose your surf leash.
Your surf leash should be the same length as or slightly longer than your surfboard. If your surfboard is 6'4", round it to the nearest whole number, which would be a 6' leash. This is important so that when you're surfing and experience a wipeout, your surfboard moves far enough away from you, preventing any potential collisions if it flips over.
Swivels are mechanisms that prevent the surfboard leash from getting tangled around your leg when it rotates. Some surf leashes come with a single or double swivel, one at each end of the leash.
When you're surfing, the leash often rotates around your foot, the board, or even your leg when you're sitting and waiting for a wave. This mechanism is crucial to keep the leash properly extended and prevent any interference during take-offs.
The main difference lies in the diameter of the cord. A "comp" leash has a smaller diameter, usually less than 6mm. This makes the leash lighter and offers less resistance in the water when catching a wave. A regular leash has an average diameter of around 7mm and is the most commonly used in the water.
