Thanks to the same principle of knots, the Kong Slyde is an ingenious adjuster for ropes that reduces impact forces. It can be used with ropes with a diameter between 9mm and 10mm.

The user can self-make its own system that can be created choosing the most appropriate way for the situation on-point, by taking into account types of rope and connections, number of forces involved, weights, environmental conditions (wet, dust, snow… make the rope stiffer and not so sliding), wear, and what could happen during use. When correctly evaluated, those parameters allow to obtain a system fine-tuned according his requirements. Remember that the free rope end must not slip out from the SLYDE, while giving enough length to absorb the greatest foreseen shock!

Because it is not possible to test all configurations and uses, this device is not a PPE and it has not been tested according to EN958.

Cheap alternative to Connect Adjust

Staff Review: Great cheap alternative to the Petzl connect adjust and similar devices.
A number of staff have this as their preffered adjustable lanyard and recommend the Beal Joker as an ideal rope to match with it, which we sell on the reel.
