Paddle Leashes & Calf Leashes are small pieces of gear that make a big difference on the water. They keep your paddle — or your board — exactly where you need it, even when a wave surprises you or you take a short swim. For many paddlers, they offer the quiet confidence that lets you focus fully on the rhythm of your stroke and the water around you.
Why Paddle Leashes & Calf Leashes Matter
A leash is simple: it keeps you connected. For kayakers, a paddle leash prevents a drifting paddle during rescues or rough-water manoeuvres. For SUP paddlers, a calf leash ensures you stay linked to your board without restricting movement. Both add a layer of safety without getting in the way of your paddling.
How They Work
Most Paddle Leashes clip to your deck lines or paddle shaft, absorbing the pull if the paddle slips away. Calf leashes are designed for SUPs, wrapping comfortably around your lower leg with a soft cuff and a coil that stays out of the water. The goal is always the same: secure connection, minimal interference.
When to Use Them
Paddle Leashes shine during open‑water trips, photography sessions, or when practicing rescues. Calf leashes are essential for SUP touring, fitness paddling, and coastal outings where wind or current can carry a board quickly.
Paddlespot Tip: If you often switch between kayak and SUP, keep one leash dedicated to each setup. It simplifies your routine and ensures the right length and style for the craft you’re using.
How to Choose the Right Leash
For kayakers: Choose a Paddle Leash with a smooth recoil and a reliable clip. A slightly longer model offers more freedom during re-entries.
For SUP paddlers: Look for a padded calf cuff and a coiled design that stays clear of the water.
Match the hardware to your craft — many paddlers pair their leashes with sturdy fittings from our Paddle Accessories collection.
Rinse your leash after each saltwater session and check the swivel for sand or grit. Make sure the stitching around the cuff or attachment point stays intact. A well‑kept leash lasts for years and performs consistently when you need it most.
