The ATK Kevlar Core Leash is a lightweight safety leash for brakeless touring setups. It has a Kevlar core with high tensile strength, about 120 kg of breaking load, inside a polyurethane spiral coating that stays flexible and elastic. It weighs just 15 g and stretches to a maximum of 60 cm.
The trade-off of a leash is one more thing to clip at every transition. On a brakeless setup that is a small price, since a ski that gets away in deep snow or on a steep face can end the day.
It is for ski tourers and ski mountaineers running light bindings without brakes. The spiral coating is designed to reduce the risk of snagging on branches or rocks.
A ring lets you attach it to the boot when it cannot clip on directly, and ATK says it works with all ski boots.
We think the Kevlar Core Leash is a simple, nearly weightless way to keep your skis with you on big days.
