Dakine Peahi Leash

This leash is specifically engineered for big wave conditions. With an 11mm cord diameter, it is significantly thicker and heavier than a standard leash, which creates unnecessary drag in smaller, everyday surf.

The integrated quick-release mechanism allows you to detach the leash instantly if it becomes snagged on a reef or underwater obstacle. It is a critical safety feature for high-pressure situations where you cannot afford to be tethered to your board.

Yes, the marine-grade stainless steel swivels are designed to rotate freely even under heavy tension. This smooth rotation significantly reduces the chance of the leash wrapping around your leg or the board's fins during a wipeout.

While it is more substantial than a standard leash cuff to ensure it stays secure during heavy wipeouts, the triple-wrap design is molded to distribute pressure evenly. It provides a secure, locked-in feel that prioritizes safety over a minimalist profile.

This leash is designed primarily for shortboards used in big wave conditions. If you are riding a longboard, you should look for a leash specifically sized for the board's length and weight to ensure proper performance.

The rail saver is a reinforced sleeve that sits between the leash cord and your board's tail. It prevents the cord from cutting into the fiberglass rail during a wipeout, which is essential when the leash is under the extreme force of a massive wave.
