Review on EBodyboarding Shackle Leash Plug RD by Andrew Arneson

As an avid bodyboarder, I'm always on the lookout for products that can improve my surfing experience. Unfortunately, the EBB Shackle Leash Plug RD didn't quite live up to my expectations. While the concept of a quick-release leash plug is appealing, the execution of this product leaves something to be desired. Firstly, the installation process was much more complicated than other plugs I've used in the past. It took me a solid 30 minutes to get it to fit correctly, which is definitely not ideal when you're itching to hit the waves. Once it was finally in, I was impressed with the sleek design and the quality of the materials. However, my qualms began when I actually started using the leash. I found that the quick-release mechanism wasn't as smooth as I had hoped it would be, and I often struggled to detach the leash in a timely manner. Additionally, the plug itself seemed to get loose fairly quickly, which gave me cause for concern in rougher surf. That being said, I can see how this product might be useful for someone who frequently switches between different boards or likes the option of a quick-release leash. For me personally, though, the cons outweigh the pros. While I appreciate the innovation behind the EBB Shackle Leash Plug RD, I ultimately decided that it's not the right fit for me.
