Using a kitesurfing leash

Since hearing the discussion lately about failing velcro on leashes I've started using my kitesurfing leash on my ski. It has carabiners on each end and a release. See the red handle with the arrow? That's the safety release which allows you to quickly unhook from the kite (or ski) and prevents "kitemares". The PFD I'm using is a Mustang inflatable with built in rings for a tether when sailing in rough weather.
