CREATURES OF LEISURE RELIANCE 2.0 MEDIUM DUTY 6' | 6MM QUICK CONNECT SURF LEASH FOR SHORTBOARD

CREATURES RELIANCE 2.0 MEDIUM DUTY 6' SURF LEASH: RELIABILITY REDESIGNED FOR MEDIUM WAVES

The leash you use in the water shouldn't be the last thing on your mind. With the Creatures of Leisure Reliance 2.0 Medium Duty 6', every connection between you and your board is backed by decades of pioneering engineering and patented technologies. Lightweight, durable, and designed for shortboarding in medium waves: the leash that won't fail you when you need it most.

WHY THE RELIANCE 2.0 MEDIUM DUTY IS THE SMARTEST SHORTBOARD LEASH ON THE MARKET

The modern surfer doesn't want to feel the leash. They want it there, invisible, no drag, no tangles, no doubts. The Reliance 2.0 line from Creatures was born from precisely that obsession: to create a leash that disappears in the water and only appears when you need it. The result is a 6mm leash with DNA 2.0 technology, double swivels, and a non-slip ankle cuff that redefines what you can expect from a mid-range leash.

Recommended for boards between 5'6" and 6'6", it is the natural choice for surfers riding shortboards in medium waves, from fast beach breaks to punchy point breaks.

CREATURES DNA 2.0 TECHNOLOGY: THE STRONGEST CONNECTION IN ITS CATEGORY

The heart of the Reliance 2.0 is its 6mm urethane cord with DNA 2.0 design, a spiral flex structure with a scallop pattern that distributes tension evenly throughout the entire cord. The result: increased break strength, better wave impact absorption, and a significantly longer lifespan than conventional leashes. Patented design.

The 6mm cord thickness is the optimal measurement for medium waves: strong enough to withstand sharp tugs, thin enough to avoid creating unnecessary drag while paddling or maneuvering.

CREATURES OF LEISURE WARRANTY — "BUILT FOR THE OCEAN. BUILT TO LAST."

Creatures of Leisure was born in 1987 in Yallingup, Western Australia, at the hands of John Malloy, a Californian surfer who dedicated his life to solving every small leash problem one by one, evolving the product from a sock tied to a rope into the high-tech gear it is today. It was Malloy who introduced urethane to the surf market in 1976—still considered the best cord material in the world—and who incorporated the swivel in 2003 to eliminate leash tangles forever.

Today, more than 50 years after that first innovation, Creatures of Leisure is a global leader in high-performance surf equipment, committed to continuous innovation, quality, and environmental sustainability. The Reliance 2.0 comes backed by an official 2-year warranty and 100% plastic-free packaging, reflecting a commitment to the ocean that surfers hold so dear.

SURF LEASH CARE AND MAINTENANCE

• Always rinse with fresh water after every session, especially the swivel and Velcro.
• Store the leash laid out or in a loose coil, never knotted, to avoid permanent tension in the cord.
• Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sun when out of the water: urethane degrades with UV rays.
• Regularly check the rail saver and the connection to the leash plug; these are the points of greatest tension.
• If the Velcro accumulates sand, use a soft-bristled brush to clean the strips before they lose their grip.
