SandTrap Advanced Anchor

The SandTrap is designed specifically for canyoneering in environments where traditional bolts or natural anchors are unavailable. It uses sand and terrain geometry to create a temporary, retrievable anchor point for rappelling.

The device features an integrated retrieval strap that allows you to pull the anchor down once you have completed your rappel. It also includes a backup retrieval tie-in point to ensure you can recover the device even if the primary strap is compromised.

No, this is a specialized tool intended for experienced canyoneers. Because the anchor relies on environmental variables like sand quality and terrain shape, it requires advanced knowledge of rigging and rigorous testing procedures before you commit your weight to it.

The smooth interior is engineered to contain sand efficiently, ensuring the anchor maintains its shape and structural integrity while in use. This design helps prevent sand leakage, which is critical for maintaining a secure anchor point.

The SandTrap is strictly designed for rappelling in canyoneering contexts. It is not intended for lead climbing protection or any scenario where a dynamic fall force might be applied to the anchor.

The four tie-in points offer significant versatility in how you rig the anchor. This allows you to adjust the orientation of the device to better fit the specific geometry of the terrain you are anchoring against.
