A leash cuff or strap (1) wraps around a limb, such as a leg (3), of a user and connects to a leash (4) which can in turn be connected to a water-sports board or water recreation board such as a surfboard, body board or paddle board. A cushioned portion (5) of the leash or cuff that contacts the skin or clothing of the user's limb includes a top skin neoprene providing sufficient friction between the leash cuff or strap (1) and the user's limb to prevent rotation of the leash cuff or strap around the limb. Thus, when worn around one leg, the leash (4) is prevented from being directed towards the user's other leg. The cushioned portion can be backed by a strip of webbing (6), such as polyester or nylon, sewn to strips of hook and loop fastener. The strip of hook material (7) can be positioned outwards from the cushioned portion and the strip of loop material (8) can be positioned facing inwards at the opposite end of the strap or cuff (1). The outer of the cuff (1) can include a badge portion (9) made from PVC (PolyVinyl Chloride).
