Wing leashes, harness lines, wing pigtails,booms and wing board leashes are essential pieces of gear that keep your wing safely connected to you during a session. A wing leash—usually coiled or straight—attaches from your wrist or waist to the wing, so if you fall or let go, the wing doesn’t drift away. Some riders prefer wrist leashes for simplicity, while others opt for waist leashes for more freedom of movement and less arm fatigue. Choosing the right leash and strap setup can make a big difference in comfort, safety, and performance out on the water.
