Yeah - having that finger jammed in there all day really makes it grip
better!

On a friend's boat equipped with Spinlocks we've discovered that we can
stop a lot of slippage by pushing down on the cam with your finger
(making it engage the line more forcefully) as you close the lever.
Seems to make a big difference.

I would suspect the cams. You can easily inspect them for wear. I've had
to replace the cams several times. When you buy the cam, the spring is
included since it's part of the assembly.

You might also inspect the bottom plate, but it seems to wear less, and
it not as critical.

        John, 

         

        Chances are it's the springs, but might as well replace both.
Spinlock sells a wealth of replacement parts that are pretty easy to
install. 

         

        All the best,
