The Rock Empire PIP Adjustable Lanyard is an adjustable positioning rope lanyard for attaching to anchors. It is made of an 8 mm thick dynamic rope designed to absorb the force of a possible fall.
The unique design allows adjustment even under load. The metal component is made of stainless steel. Its design is unique. It attaches to the tie-in point of the harness with the loop. Once connected, simply pull on the free end of the lanyard to pull towards the anchor or release the tension by holding the device open with the thumb lever.
The large connection loop with anti slip rubber piece accommodates all sizes of locking carabiners. At only 120 grams, the PIP is a light-weight, adjustable lanyard.
The carabiner is not part of the product. PIP is not intended for use on via ferrata routes.
Adjustable from 15 to 85 cm.
Please Note: For use below an anchor point; These lanyards must only be used when the potential fall factor is less than 1. Carabiner not included.

I’ve been using the Rock Empire PIP Adjustable Lanyard for a while now, and overall I’m really impressed. It’s incredibly light, and the rope is supple and flexible – it doesn’t feel stiff or awkward to handle. Adjustment is smooth and easy, which is exactly what you want mid-route.
One unusual feature is that it can just about be released under a small amount of load. That’s something some competitors I don’t think are able to do. I’m not entirely sure if that’s good or bad overall, but I can see it being useful in situations like repositioning yourself to build an anchor or rethread the rope when cleaning a route. If you’re in an awkward stance and need to let out a bit of slack without fully unloading the lanyard, this gives you that ability. I’ve definitely found myself in that kind of scenario before and its bloody awkward to not release it a bit.
My only real criticism is the rubber grommet that keeps the carabiner aligned. It feels like a bit of an afterthought its just a generic piece rather than something designed specifically for a carabiner. I’d happily have paid a bit more for a dedicated carabiner with a properly fitted grommet, which would give the whole setup a more refined integrated feel.
That said, it’s a solid piece of kit and I’d definitely recommend it.
Hi Max, Many thanks for the feedback on this product. I think the slippage is typical on similar devices depending on how much you load it. As always practice and and experince using it in differnt situations is important.
