MetaLeash Belt for SUP and all other Paddle Sports

It has been three years since I first developed a leash but only about one year where I have spent more time on a SUP (stand up paddleboard) than a boat. Getting a SUP out on the water is a lot easier than taking a boat. There’s no set up, no gear fuss - and when it is windy a board is ideal for getting in and out of the surf. I’d developed a belt early on in the process of trying out what was comfortable. To my surprise we sold a lot of belts, mostly to the surfski paddlers. I used my belt during the winter for everything I paddle, outrigger, surfski, SUP and recently my hybrid Fanatic Bee with foil capacity. Why? It’s safer. If you fall off your boat or board it is a lot easier to reach the leash at your waist, should you need to. You definitely don’t want your leash getting tangled in a buoy mooring line or anything else that would be hard to get to, especially in cold water. On a SUP the belt proved to be ideal. Why? Because when you move, the leash rotates around the belt with you. It is the ultimate experience in comfort, versatility and safety.

And believe me, I fall off the Bee a lot! ;)
