The surf leash revolution

Ventores FutureLeash – the world's most innovative surfboard leash for more safety and performance

100% New. 100% Different.

In the event of an intentional or unintentional loss of control, a surf leash must ensure a reliable connection to your board in all conditions. With the world innovation FutureLeash, Ventores is revolutionizing this connection between you and your shortboard. The FutureLeash is a next-generation technology product that combines innovative solutions with state-of-the-art materials from professional yachting, mountain sports and automotive engineering. The result is a totally “different” leash – thin for lower water drag and yet ultra-strong, and absolutely corrosion-free thanks to the elimination of any metal swivels. This ensures more safety and outstanding performance, even under the toughest conditions.

ToughCord - The ultra-strong, low-drag leash

The aim was to develop a leash cord that has a minimal diameter, reduces drag in the water and withstands high loads without overstretching or tearing, yet is lightweight and barely noticeable when surfing. The result is a leash cord that consists of two harmonized components: a thin and flexible 5 mm BASF® urethane core for shock absorption and an ultra-strong Dyneema® cover that absorbs the load of wave impacts and offers the leash optimum protection against overstretching, cuts and breakage.

SoftSwivel - The metal-free / purist swivel connection

The newly developed patented pending Ventores SoftSwivel technology replaces the two standard metal swivels with high-strength knots made of Dyneema® fibers that rotate on low-friction surfaces made of special polyamide. The swivel knot in the ankle strap is made from the end piece of the Dyneema cover of the leash cord, while the swivel on the rail guard is made from a special Dyneema line that also creates a connection to the rail guard. In addition to the two metal swivels that are vulnerable to corrosion, the SoftSwivels technology also eliminates the need for gluing, plug connections and screw connections.

OnePiece Spacer - The simple spacer

During an impact of a wave, the “spacer” on the ankle strap of standard leashes must absorb all tension and bending loads. The bonding and screwing of metal swivels and cord as well as the integrated joint of a traditional spacer are constantly exposed to high loads, which can lead to material failure. With Ventores, the brand new OnePiece Spacer is designed in such a way that it does not have to absorb any tension load, but only keeps the leash cord away from the foot, while bending homogeneously. The cord is simply fed through the spacer to the SoftSwivel rotation mould in the ankle strap so that all tension loads are transferred directly.

SafeLock System - The reliable board connection

With conventional rail guards, frequent opening and continuous tension loads lead to increasing wear of the Velcros, which can cause the middle Velcro layer - holding the string cord - to pull out, resulting in board loss. The Ventores FutureLeash uses a newly developed Velcro strap loop system (SafeLock system), which additionally halves the tension loads caused by the string cord through a kind of pulley system and distributes them much more efficiently to the three Velcro layers. This minimizes wear on the Velcro and significantly reduces the risk of losing the surfboard.
