WIP R4R Wing Board Leash Dampener - Forward WIP

WIP R4R Wing Board Leash Dampener is a lightweight shock-absorbing accessory designed to reduce impact loads between your wing board leash and foil board during crashes, protecting your board inserts, leash system, and equipment. BoatCrewGear.com is an Australian specialist sailing and watersports retailer, stocking genuine Forward WIP foiling equipment and accessories for riders across Australia.

The WIP R4R Wing Board Leash Dampener is designed for wing foilers who push their equipment hard and want extra protection during high-speed crashes and wipeouts. Positioned between the wing board leash and the rider connection point, it absorbs shock loads, reduces leash recoil, and helps minimise stress transferred into the board and leash system.

Built as part of the Forward WIP Rider4Rider (R4R) wing foiling range, this compact add-on provides an extra layer of protection without adding unnecessary weight or bulk. The stainless steel snap hook allows easy connection, while the lightweight, durable construction is designed to withstand the repeated impacts and forces experienced during demanding wing foiling sessions.

The R4R Wing Board Leash Dampener is compatible with most foil boards and wing leash setups, making it an ideal upgrade for riders looking to extend equipment life and improve confidence when riding faster, jumping, downwinding, or foiling in challenging conditions.
