Back feeding rope is a hidden danger in lead rope solo systems, and can cause much larger-than-expected falls. Use our Soft-Cinch Backfeed Preventers to cinch your rope system tight, and know exactly what size of fall you may be facing. 

Designed for easy one handed cinching, these keepers are the perfect companion for managing rope-side slack effortlessly mid-pitch. Enhance your solo climbing today with our Soft-Cinch backfeed keepers!

    Key Features:

    Effortless Clipping and Cinching

    Our unique design enables you to clip the rope as usual, then cinch it downwards with a simple one-handed motion, ensuring no hidden slack in the rope.

    Advanced Flap Mechanism

    The flexible flaps are engineered for a light yet effective grip. During falls, the natural movement of the rope is unimpeded, ensuring your safety and confidence. A key highlight, the hammer-head flap, is specifically designed to prevent the rope from dislodging from the cincher during falls.

    Rope-Friendly Material

    Molded from non-marring white TPU, our keepers are gentle on your rope, prolonging its lifespan without compromising on grip or efficiency.
