The rider is connected to his board by a leash.
The leash must be at least equal or longer than the
length of the board. No safety or security equip-
ment is required for the beach vessels. For the
SUP’s allowed to go beyond 300 m, safety and
basic security equipment is required, related to the
characteristics of the vessel and mandatory within
2 miles of shelter (article 240-3.07). An individual
floating devise (art.240- 3.12) or a protective suit
(art.240- 3.13): A life jacket or a neoprene wetsuit.
A personal strobe light (art.240-3.14) & a towing
apparatus.
In rapids using a leash is not allowed, this can
be dangerous because it can stay blocked into
rocks or other things. A flotation aid is manda-
tory. Closed shoes must be worn. A helmet is
required in class 3 rapids or if the conditions
make it necessary. The rules particular to each
zone should be respected.
