An anchoring system comprising: an anchor comprising: an anchor body with a distal end , a proximal end , and a length between the distal end and the proximal end, and one or more anti-backout features along the length of the anchor body configured to resist proximal movement of the anchor when the anchor has been inserted in a hole with a diameter equal to or less than a maximum diameter of the anchor , wherein the anchor body is segmented at one or more locations along its length such that the length of the anchor may be reduced by removing the proximal end and a portion of the length of the anchor body; and an inserter comprising: a handle , and a shaft coupled to the handle wherein the shaft includes a connecting mechanism configured to releasably couple with the anchor, wherein the connecting mechanism includes a distal end of the shaft that extends along and contacts a portion of the anchor to support the anchor ; wherein the anchor body of the anchor has a cannulation ; wherein the distal end of the shaft is sized to fit within the cannulation in the anchor to provide support to the anchor ; and characterised in that the anchor body is segmented by one or more couplings between snap together components , wherein the snap together components are configured to be detached at the one or more couplings to reduce the length of the anchor body. an anchor comprising: an anchor body with a distal end , a proximal end , and a length between the distal end and the proximal end, and one or more anti-backout features along the length of the anchor body configured to resist proximal movement of the anchor when the anchor has been inserted in a hole with a diameter equal to or less than a maximum diameter of the anchor , wherein the anchor body is segmented at one or more locations along its length such that the length of the anchor may be reduced by removing the proximal end and a portion of the length of the anchor body; and an anchor body with a distal end , a proximal end , and a length between the distal end and the proximal end, and one or more anti-backout features along the length of the anchor body configured to resist proximal movement of the anchor when the anchor has been inserted in a hole with a diameter equal to or less than a maximum diameter of the anchor , wherein the anchor body is segmented at one or more locations along its length such that the length of the anchor may be reduced by removing the proximal end and a portion of the length of the anchor body; and an inserter comprising: a handle , and a shaft coupled to the handle wherein the shaft includes a connecting mechanism configured to releasably couple with the anchor, a handle , and a shaft coupled to the handle wherein the shaft includes a connecting mechanism configured to releasably couple with the anchor, wherein the connecting mechanism includes a distal end of the shaft that extends along and contacts a portion of the anchor to support the anchor ; wherein the anchor body of the anchor has a cannulation ; wherein the distal end of the shaft is sized to fit within the cannulation in the anchor to provide support to the anchor ; and characterised in that the anchor body is segmented by one or more couplings between snap together components , wherein the snap together components are configured to be detached at the one or more couplings to reduce the length of the anchor body. <EOS>
