Found these at west Marine, listed as Surftech EZ Plug handle.. (this post is old), perhaps a newer version. It comes with a superglue tube. New to the sport and I read that old method was peel and stick but that failed, also read that some do not fit on curved surface.

The part that adhere's, to be glued,  to the board is soft and pliable like a suction cup, don't want to put something on my board that will fail and cause a drop on the concrete.

How do these compare to the SurfCo EZ Plug Handle ? Does SurfCo also have soft pliable attachment pads ?

I've also seen suggestions of the NSI handle but do not see much information about these handles other than a simple "use NIS" and a simple pic on their web site.

Don;t find much information, reviews, pros'cons of different handles, if someoen could point me in the right direction..

I used two Surfco Ez Plugs on my hard surftech board  to create dual leash holders/plugs.
I've been using that setup for a few years now with no problem - small surf to well overhead,
about 3x per week - so they have worked very well.

However, I doubt they would be dependable over time on a pliable/flexible surface.
