FAQs
Is this belt compatible with all SUP leashes?
It is compatible with most standard SUP leashes that feature a loop or quick-connect system.
Can I wear this over my life jacket?
Yes, it is recommended to wear the belt over your PFD so that the release toggle remains accessible at all times.
How often should I clean the belt?
You should rinse it with fresh water after every session, especially if you are paddling in saltwater or sandy environments.
Is the belt one-size-fits-all?
The belt features a highly adjustable strap system that accommodates most adult body sizes.
Can this be used for whitewater kayaking?
While designed for paddleboarding, its release features are intended for situations where tethering is used in moving water; please ensure your local safety regulations allow this use.
Troubleshooting
Release toggle is difficult to pull.
Rinse the buckle assembly with fresh water to remove sand or salt buildup and ensure the mechanism is free of obstructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your belt, slide the webbing through the buckle and adjust to a snug fit around your waist, ensuring it does not interfere with your PFD. Attach your existing SUP leash to the designated loop on the belt. For care, rinse the belt thoroughly with fresh water after every use in salt or silty river water to prevent grit from fouling the release mechanism. Store the unit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Periodically check the stitching and the integrity of the pull toggle mechanism to ensure it remains free of debris.
