Need a leash for a Stingray

TIKIMON

Anybody have a leash attachment or know where I can get one for my Stingray? I have a retractable leash setup missing the leg wrap,

Google "bodyboard leashes" and you will get lots of sources for good coil type leashes for bodyboards or canoes.

I'm using a board leash now, but want a leash that will clip into the existing retractable clasp setup.

Get a coil leash. That retractable leash sucks. Lost my boat using it. I got smoked on a wave and the leash snapped like dental floss. its sucks, stop using the retractable one.

But its such a cool idea. Maybe I will stick with my board leash.

I agree with poop, My first Stingray had one of those recoil type leashes and I never really liked the looks of that thing, too light duty, I use the coil type now and have had zero problems. If you regularly paddle in cold water , you don`t want to fool around with a questionable leash.

The Aussie OC2 Stingray is coming in from China, . ... from Karel obviously.
The Stingray OC1 is still available local made but as far as i know, none made in the last year.
Zephyr not available here yet.
