Abstract
The present invention aims at connecting one end of a surfboard and the ankle of a rider by a cord in a freely attachable/detachable manner at both ends, enabling the rider to detach the surfboard by a simple operation. The ankle strap and the cord tip are directly connected via a swivel mechanism to prevent entanglement of the two and twist of the cord, achieving excellent safety and operability as well as preventing accidents. A pocket to store small articles is provided to the ankle strap to allow the rider carry keys, coins, etc.
