Most riders use wrist or bicep coiled leashes.

They should be of the recessed type and positioned off set from the centre to minimise damage to your face should you make contact with the board whilst riding or paddling. Drop-knee riders often use a 6ft surfboard leash attached to the rear of the bodyboard. Bodyboard Bags Cost as little as 15 and are usually set up with rucksack style straps for ease of transport.
