How to connect a Soft Shackle to a low friction ring, step by step.
The system
Soft Shackle + Olli™ ring: how it works
A shackle that opens with two fingers and locks itself under load: hook up rings, blocks, sheets and chains without a gram of metal.
Open
Slide back the velcro strap and slip the diamond knot out of the eye: the shackle is open.
Pass
Pass it through the Olli™ ring and around your attachment point: pad eye, head board, chain link, block.
Lock
Seat the knot back into the eye and close the velcro over it: locked, silent, metal-free.
Applications
One shackle, a thousand hookups
Anywhere you need to hook up and release fast: light, silent, unsinkable.
Blocks in a snap
Attach and move blocks on pad eyes and tracks in seconds, no pins to screw.
Sheets to the clew
Genoa and gennaker sheets on the clew: light, kind to your sails, no metal flogging around.
Halyards to the head
Attach the halyard to the sail head: no mast rattle, no scratches.
Snubber to the chain
Attach the snubber line to the anchor chain: unlike a hook, it never falls off.
Low friction rings
The soft, repositionable attachment for Olli™ rings: the turning point goes where you need it.
Quick-release ties
Preventers, ties and tack pendants you open and close often.
Securing gear
Fenders, jerry cans, sail covers, life ring: lashed tight, released fast.
Goodbye metal shackles
Anywhere you'd use a metal shackle: lighter, rust-free, scratch-free, and it floats.
Soft hanks
Hank your storm jib onto a fiber stay with soft Dyneema® hanks.
Or get it pre-assembled
Loop, ring and line already spliced together for one job: open the box and rig it.
