"Okay, here we have a 9 foot surf leash. As you can see, it extends the whole length of the long board. This is not an ankle leash, this is a knee leash. We’re going to put this on our surf student. Sean, why don't you go ahead and put that above your knee. Below your knee, I'm sorry. I made you look like a wiener. There you are. Just like that. That's in you back foot. As you know, that's where your thing is going to be. As we're just learning, we're not going to leave the back fin out so it doesn't catch in the sand. Sean, go ahead and grab the board. Keep the fins toward you. There you. Now you can walk down to the beach just like that. We're taking our student surfing."
