VEIA Leash Strings are the connection point between your board and your leash — a small component with an outsized impact on leash durability and reliability. Developed and battle-tested by VEIA co-founder John John Florence in the world's most demanding surf, from 12-foot Sunset Beach to second-reef Pipeline, these leash strings have proven stronger and more slip-resistant than any other in the most extreme conditions on the planet. Proven in big surf: tested by John John Florence at Sunset Beach and second-reef Pipe — among the most demanding conditions a leash string can face High strength construction: built to resist the sudden impact tension of heavy wipeouts and multiple hold-downs in large surf without snapping or stretching Slip-resistant design: stays locked in the leash plug without working loose through repeated use Colour: Red — easy to spot for quick rigging at the beach Quantity: Sold in sets of 5 — add 1 to cart to receive a full set of 5 leash strings Universal fit: compatible with standard FCS, Futures, and most leash plug systems across surfboard brands Sizing Note: One size fits all standard leash plugs. Each string is designed to loop through the leash plug hole and the leash cuff connector securely. Replace leash strings regularly — worn or frayed strings are the most common cause of leash separation in the surf. Care: Rinse with fresh water after use. Inspect strings for fraying, cutting, or weakening before each session. Replace at the first sign of wear — VEIA recommends checking strings every 3–4 sessions in regular use.
