Good concept but I think that it has the potential to be very problematic. It is an accepted fact that at some point in a session you will find yourself getting cleaned up on a wave and then find yourself
tumbling in the washing machine. The last thing that I would want to be holding onto is a board which potentially could come into contact with any part of your person during this phase.

Yes but you still have your leg rope so you would just ditch as you normally do - problem solved. I am pretty sure he is not holding on to his board when its triple over head anyway -and if he is - good luck to him

Congrats Broadman I reckon your onto it and especially when busy! As you already stated there are probably other solutions to retain your SUP missile! Another cheaper option I use is to keep the section of Ankle Velcro off a broken leggy and feed it through either the lashing or loop of your new leggy, allowing enough room to fit your hand through in a hurry... just in-case! I found waiting till last moment and submerging yourself works well in up-to 6' approx? Then I tried it in 8-10 Ulu's and snapped two fins with my left shin, I didn't realize at the time but I also tore the vertical and horizontal meniscus and opened my shin up nicely!!! An important note, I'm riding an 8'0 x 29" x 110 liter board and weigh 93-94kgs. However, I would be reluctant to try this with say a 10' + 140 liter + board in anything over head high?

That has got to hurt...

I may not hold on to my leg rope as much anymore...

Hurt heaps more after they had to nibble a bit more bone off and scrubbed it out! I was trying so hard to save my board from getting damaged, i forgot about taking care of myself. Never again.

My solution. Not for big surf but neither am I. Webbing protects rail. the board can twist without wrenching your arm. Its not perfect but I have been using for over a year and has worked pretty well.

How did you make it?

Its a carry handle off a kayak attached to the second leggy plug and wrapped in the webbing of the handle of a sports bag.Most important is to ensure the the chord is long enough so as not to crush knuckles.
