Description
We have 2 types of Paddle Leashes:
1. Craft-to-Paddle leash by DOWNWIND and MOCKE: this leash has been designed to attach your paddle to your craft and ensure that your paddle is not lost in the event of a capsize and swim. When you are not in the surf zone you can also rely on the Paddle Leash to prevent losing your craft during capsize.
2. Wrist-to-Paddle leash by MOCKE: this leash has been designed to attach the paddle to your wrist to keep your paddle secure during moments you need most. When paddling in open water there are moments when holding onto your paddle is cumbersome, difficult or impossible. With the Mocke Wrist Paddle Leash you can simply let go, free up both hands, and then grab the paddle as soon as you are ready to paddle again.
For example, in the event of a capsize, when one needs to remount in deep water, it helps not having to worry about losing your paddle should you let go while climbing back into the seat. Or, should you need both your hands to retrieve something from your lifejacket, make adjustments in and around the cockpit or work on a fellow paddlers’ boat rafted next to you, you can briefly let go and focus on the task at hand. Finally, you can rest secure that your paddle stays in your hands during moments when the wind and sea be become so violent that you fear your paddle will be ripped from them.
Features:
Easy slip on wrist attachment
Velcro adjustment for a secure fit
Neoprene padded surface for comfort
Lightweight & short paddle shaft coil
Instructions for use:
Attach the leash to the shaft using the smaller velcro fold-over loop.
The fold-over loop can be inside or outside of your hand grip. Most paddlers prefer it attaching to the outside.
For right-hand feathered paddles attach the wrist paddle leash to the left hand side.
For left-hand feathered paddles attach the wrist paddle leash to the right hand side.
Slip your hand through the padded wrist strap, grab the shaft and use the other hand to tighten and fit. Not too tight, not too loose; just right.
Practice carrying and maneuvering your ski on land while leashed to your paddle.
IMPORTANT: Always inspect your paddle leash before each use.
Care instructions:
After regular contact with salt water wash in soapy water, rinse with fresh water and hang up to dry out of direct sunlight.
We do strongly advise paddlers to use Calf Leash as well, designed to keep YOU connected to your craft at all times, including rough conditions.
