Just a short note on the ankle v calf leggie. I'm pretty sure the calf possie has more to do with mal riders doing cross over walks up and down the board rather than how it pulls when you wipeout. Some people didn't like getting the leggie tangled between their toes and so this was the solution.I say put it on your ankle and get used to being dragged backwards. Don't worry, you won't get sucked over the falls, it just feels like it.
100% correct Jack,The only reason longboarders use calf leggies,to cross step! and thats the only reason. Ankle leggies are the way to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

However recently I have fitted just the rail saver from a broken leash to the spare rear leash plug. Being just a strap rather than a loop when the pull gets super critical it slips from your hands no danger of twisting or wrenching saves load on the leg leash and keeps the board a bit closer to you for a faster retrieval in the soup.
