i just picked up a 9'2 board from my man chris chaize in asbury park, great shaper, and i wanted to know what size leash i should pick up for the board?
A 10ft leash should be good, Either Knee leash or Ankle leash its all preference. I have a 10 Da KIne leash its almost a year old no issues. Extra tip when your done surfing dont wrap the leash around your board . It will get a memory and when you go out to surf the next time it will keep getting tangled up in your legs.
I like at least 1 foot longer than the board but 10 would be fine. Matt is right on about the kinking of leashes wrapped around boards. I have found that you can attach the leash to a door knob as you would to you ankle then lead the leash up over the top of the door and down and under the bottom on the other side of the door with some tension on the leash. Works easier with carpeted floor. In a few days the kinks will pretty much go away.
