In this video, Seon Crockford Laserer of @packrafteurope-officialalp8538 explains the advantages and disadvantages of paddle leashes and the dangers of releasable chest harness. The basic rule at the "clean-line" principle is to have as few lines or objects attached or tethered to the body as possible. Under certain circumstances, however, a paddle leash may make sense, for example, when crossing large bodies of water such as fjords, coastlines, or large lakes. Please keep in mind that the releasable chest harness (rescue belt) can only be opened without problems under a certain pulling direction and this may not always be possible in white water. Be aware of the danger and make a conscious decision.
Luc Mehl @lucmehl_ak accident statistics clearly show how dangerous paddle lines are in whitewater, but also how lifesaving they can be on open water. thingstolucat.com/2019/08/15/...
