Hi Everyone,

The buckle on one end of my mirage drive leash is broken. It is part of the tether end that attaches directly to the Mirage drive. Does Hobie carry a replacement part for this? I have only seen the entire leash kit offered.

Thanks,
Mike

No way to replace that one due to the way it is stitched into the webbing. We do not have this buckle either. The leash is a vendored item.

Appreciate the reply Matt

Rob, I will give those a try. Looks like they may be just what I need to repair my leash. Very helpful!

Pretty clever it has a removable pin so can be used without any webbing changes! Let us know how it works out and how sturdy and secure it is versus OEM.

This was a great replacement. Saved me from having to buy a new drive leash. Feels very secure and actually sturdier than the OEM buckle. I added some loctite to the threads to help prevent any loosening and am good to go. Very pleased with this purchase.
