SUP/Wing Leash HIP 10x8

FAQ

What is the Neilpryde SUP/Wing Leash HIP 10x8 designed for?

The hip leash is designed for wing foiling and SUP, connecting the rider to the board or wing so that the equipment does not drift away in the event of a fall.

What is the length of the HIP 10x8 leash?

The coiled leash is 10 feet long with an 8 mm cord diameter and is designed to match the typical ranges used in wing foiling and SUP.

How is the leash attached to the body?

It features a neoprene hip belt with a Velcro closure and can be quickly put on and taken off. It is available in sizes S, M, and L to accommodate different waist sizes.

How does the hip leash differ from a classic foot leash?

The leash extends away from the hip, and the coil hangs freely, preventing the cord from getting caught between the legs. This provides greater freedom of movement during maneuvers and jumps.

Is the leash equally suitable for wing foiling and SUP?

Yes, the system is designed so that either the board or wing leash can be attached depending on the activity, making it suitable for both disciplines.

How robust is the construction?

The PU cord is highly resistant, and the double coil rotates smoothly and relieves tension on the leash during rotation, reducing wear on the attachment and belt.

What safety advantages does the hip attachment offer?

The Velcro closure can be opened with a single pull in case of emergency, and the coiled leash reduces the risk of injury from getting caught in lines or fins.

How should the leash be cared for after use?

After each session, rinse it with fresh water, let it dry, and store it away from direct sunlight to keep the neoprene and PU cord flexible for longer.
