Pinch Cinch Backfeed Preventer Instructions

Shop the Pinch Cinch

Basic Usage:

The pinch cinch lightly clamps the rope, and then blocks against the body of the carabiner to add single direction backfeed prevention. Steps for use:

  1. Clip the rope through the carabiner like normal lead climbing.
  2. Pull the rope snug, and then hold in place momentarily by biting.
  3. Clamp the Pinch Cinch above the carabiner, then let go of the bite. The rope will stay tensioned.
  4. Clip the racking carabiner to the rope to secure the Pinch Cinch in the case of the clamp popping off.
