What are those called? i've seen em on the mountain before but when l can not find em to purchase online.Instead of hooking to from the binding to the boot it goes from the binding to a velcro strap around the leg.Do they go by a different name?Google or ebay 'snowboard leash' l dont see any.

thanks

Try searching for Surf and Snowboard accessories.

its called a snowboard safety leash, but u shouldnt buy the one that goes around your leg cuz, A)it looks stupid and B)chanses are that it will get stuck somewhere (in a tree) and ull get injured. it happend to a friend and he had hes knee twisted.

try somethong like this:

It is called a crappy one.
l would not trust the velcro if it comes to needing what the leash is actually intended for. A good leash is one you dont really see.
For Der man- like the other response, one that is visible is more likely to get hung up on something.

It is called just that. a snowboard leash. The type you describe just happens to incorporate velcro in its use. l have one like that.

And to the guy that wrote a good leash is one you dont see: l wasnt aware that a snowboard leash was bad because it was ''visible''. does that imply that it will work if it is ''invisible?''

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Snwbrdr96: l stand corrected. good call!
