The GIN Soft shackle VERY light and very strong! Can be used for reserve connection or for hang point connection. The GIN Soft shackle is a perfect replacement for a traditional metal maillon, and can be used for webbing-to-webbing connections, e.g. between your rescue and Y-bridle or between your wing's riser and the harness hang point. Compared to a metal maillon, the GIN Soft shackle is up to 8 times lighter with equivalent breaking strength. It features a locking system to prevent slippage under load and is easy to undo without tools.
