Leash + free Dampener: better shock absorption for wingfoil
Leash + free Dampener: better shock absorption for wingfoil
In wingfoil, the leash is one of the essential accessories in the setup.
It keeps the wing or the board connected to the rider, makes it easier to recover the equipment after a fall and helps maintain better control on the water.
But a leash is not only about staying connected to your gear.
It also affects comfort, safety and the way tension is transferred between the rider, the board and the wing.
To help wing, board and foil riders improve their setup, Forward WIP is offering a special deal on the Swiss store.

What is a leash used for in wingfoil?
A leash connects the rider to part of the equipment.
A wing leash keeps the wing connected to the rider.
A board leash keeps the board connected to the rider after a fall.
In both cases, the leash helps you recover your equipment faster and keep better control during the session.
Why add a Dampener?
The Wing Board Leash Dampener adds an extra level of absorption.
It is positioned between the wing belt and board leash for maximum impact absorption.
It is especially useful during high-speed crashes, when the board pulls strongly on the leash.
Its purpose is simple: absorb shocks and help protect the board insert.
Why do sudden pulls happen?
After a fall, the board can keep moving or be pushed by wind, chop or current.
The leash then tightens quickly.
This can create a sharp pull in the system, especially with a larger board, strong wind or a fast crash.
The Dampener helps make this tension more progressive.
When is the Dampener most useful?
- During high-speed crashes.
- When the board pulls strongly on the leash.
- When the rider uses a wing belt with a board leash.
- When the goal is to reduce stress on the board insert.
- When comfort becomes important during longer sessions.

How should you choose your leash?
The right choice depends on your practice and connection point.
A wing leash connects the wing to the rider.
A board leash connects the board to the rider, often through a belt or wing belt.
For a coherent setup, consider safety, comfort and how tension is absorbed during falls.
