Kook Cord, Leash, Ankle Strap

Refers to a surfboard leash. Some longtime surfers used to refer to a leash as a kook cord since they felt an experienced surfer shouldn't need a leash. Today a leash is a standard part of the equipment and provides safety for others in the water. In fact, today, if you don't use a leash, you're referred to as a Kook (or worse).
