It's been over 3 years since I started working on this quick release board leash project. The goal was to design a leash that could be quickly ejected from your ankle in the case of the board leash getting tangled in the kitelines. Episode #1 takes us back to the very beginning of this leash project, in the kitesurfing paradise Cabo Verde. Where it became very evident very quickly, that the leash would require a single handed reconnect mechanism.
This series follows the process of designing, prototyping, and testing the Quick Click Leash.
