Paddle leash
 | This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (September 2025) |
A paddle leash[1] is used to secure a paddle in open water with a sea kayak. Especially on solo tours after capsizing a paddle might drift away through wind or waves and not be recovered. A paddle leash must not be used in whitewater kayaking due to the danger of getting strangled.
