Surf Instruction
To Leash or Not to LeashCheck out my new article discussing all you ever wanted to know about our beloved (and sometimes despised) leg rope. Surfermag.com recently quoted Mickey Munoz comments on the creation of the leash, "Ah, the two edge sword. They have helped advance creativity at times. They have saved body and board dings, and probably lives, and they have sure helped me get more waves on those just before dark go-outs, and they have helped the surf business by deluding more people into thinking they can surf. But, the leash has polluted our surf breaks with too many people that have not learned the lessons of surfing without a leash, the unwritten laws of courtesy, not to mention, learning to swim." Also, peruse my entire series of articles designed to instruct surfers from paddling to ripping. 08:31 PM # |
