Step 5: Leash use and op4ons
i. Peel back all all three layers of velcro on the “rail saver” end of the leash and
a\ach to the ring at the back of the board behind the deck pad. Re-a\ach all
three layers to ensure the rail saver is secure.
ii. Secure the other end of the leash to your ankle or above you calf if using the
supplied ankle cuff or a\ach to a secure part of your PFD if using the quick
release (on the river use the quick release or no leash at all - an ankle leash on
the river can become snagged and the force of the water even in a slow moving
river can easily be too great for you to reach your ankle to release it and presents
a serious drowning risk)
