#1 SELLING LEASH FCS FREEDOM HELIX LEASH

Most leashes stretch out and stay stretched. The Freedom Helix has a titanium coil inside the cord that pulls it back to its original length after every wipeout — session one surfs the same as session one hundred.
The Freedom Helix creates the perfect blend of weightlessness, strength, and sustainability in a leash that’s one of a kind.

Featuring a cord made from natural bio-resin, the Helix ups the performance levels by being lighter and faster than anything you’ve experienced.

New Helix Cord

  • Naturally sourced, corn-based Bio-Resin construction results in a lighter & stronger cord.
  • Inner Helix straightens under load to absorb shock & amplify strength.
  • Helix’s textured cord surface creates smoother water flow resulting in less drag.

Lightweight Cuff

  • Silicone Grip Print - Reduces slipping around ankle.
  • 2mm Neoprene Padding - Thin, light and comfortable.
  • Low Profile Moulded Velcro - Stronger & more reliable.
  • Moulded Pull-tab - New finger grip designed for quick release.

Strong Connections

  • Helix Overmould - Maximizes strength while providing stretch when strained.
  • Reinforced Horn - Elongated & comfortable horn reduces back foot tangling.
  • Slim Railsaver - Made with Hypalon and moulded velcro for extra strength
  • Titanium Swivels - Super durable, light & corrosion resistant.

Features

  • Cord Thickness: 6.5mm.
  • Leash Lengths: 6 ft, 7 ft.
  • Specifically designed for wave sizes 0 - 8 ft

    Leash Length Guide

    Pick a leash about the same length as your board, or up to 1 ft longer. Never go shorter than the board. Use a thicker cord for bigger waves.

    Board length Leash length
    Up to 6'0" 6 ft
    6'1" to 7'0" 7 ft
    7'1" to 8'0" 8 ft
    8'1" to 9'0" 9 ft
    9'1" and longer 10 ft
    Cord thickness Waves (manufacturer rating)
    5 to 5.5 mm (comp) Up to 4 ft (FCS Comp / Helix Comp)
    6.5 mm 0 to 8 ft (FCS Freedom Helix All Round)
    7 mm (regular) 2 to 8 ft (FCS All Round Essential)
    Big wave (Protect) 4 to 12 ft (FCS Protect Big Wave), 10 to 12 ft+ (Protect Max)

    Creatures of Leisure: 5 to 6 mm cords suit small waves and competition; 7 to 9 mm cords suit regular to large, powerful waves and are recommended for beginners.

    Leash FAQ

    What length leash do I need?
    About the same length as your board. If your board is between sizes, go to the next size up (a 6'6" board takes a 7 ft leash). Don't go more than 1 ft longer than the board.

    Thin or thick cord?
    Thinner cords have less drag and suit small waves. Thicker cords are stronger and less likely to snap in bigger, heavier surf.

    What leash should a beginner use?
    Creatures of Leisure recommends a thicker 7 to 9 mm cord for beginners. A leash up to 1 ft longer than the board keeps you a little further from it when you fall.
