I’m pretty much assuming that if you have the chops to surf an Alaia, you don’t worry about having a leash. But what do you do in crowded breaks? If you happen to fall off (gods forbid) does the board turn in to a lethal object?
And now for my stupid question1: where’s the leash plug?
Above photo politely borrowed from super awesome man Graham and the Shelter Surf Shop blog, without whose semi-weekly posts of fresh, new boards my life would be exponentially less exciting. Oh and don’t even think you’re gonna swoop in and buy that framed Tmoe print in the background, that’s mine. I call dibbs.

All being said about the ‘board’… a comment on the board rack sandy bottom: like it… a lot.
You swim. Keep in mind they are very low volume – they don’t float well- so they don’t bob towards shore like a foam board. Also, it’s pretty easy to hang on to them as the rails are thin. Still if you don’t have the hang of it – avoid crowds.
Aloha,
