1. Rinse your leash with fresh water after each use to remove saltwater, sand, and other debris. This helps prevent corrosion and wear and tear.
2. Avoid exposing your leash to direct sunlight for extended periods of time, as this can cause the materials to break down and become brittle.
3. Store your leash in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and other heat sources.
4. Check your leash regularly for signs of wear and tear, such as fraying or knots. Replace your leash if it is damaged or worn out.
5. Avoid wrapping your leash too tightly around your board or your body, as this can cause stress on the leash and weaken the materials.
6. Use a leash that is appropriate for the size and weight of your board, as using an incorrect leash can cause damage to both the board and the leash.
7. Consider using a leash saver, which is a small piece of webbing that attaches to your leash and helps protect it from rubbing against your board or other objects.
By following these care tips, you can help ensure that your surfboard leash lasts as long as possible and keeps you safe in the water.
