So..... what is your bridge made out of?

[tophopper]

For those who climb on saddle with a floating front attachment, what is your bridge constructed of?

Mine is made of dyneema. Triple layered and stitched.

How bout you?

 

[Bermy]

I'm in a Tree Magic, the bridge is a wide (4cm) webbing strap, adjustable for length. It's double layer, not stitched. Nylon I guess.

In my avatar that's a Butterfly with two bridges, the original thick webbing bridge and the replaceable B'fly2 thinner webbing bridge with a cover (always thought I should get rid of the cover...). Both are triple layer stitched, the original is wide and thick, the newer one thinner and narrower, and comes with a ring so it got promoted to primary use with the HC and VT

 

[tophopper]

Noone else eh? I guess the subject has been beat to death?

 

[MasterBlaster]

My Versatile has a big, wide bridge.

I use the standard nylon web bridge on my Sequoia SRT.

I'm going to replace my standard issue on the sequoia. I get paranoid about it, Prolly just leave the old on as a backup.

 

[mccauleytree]

I use the standard Tree Motion bridge on mine. I try and replace every 6 months or so. The $18 for a new one is well worth it for my own piece of mind.

 

[woodworkingboy]

I recognize that dyneema material as the same that is or was supplied with a micro ascender. Always wondered what it was. Some later thought they came up with that it is better to use the cord rather than attaching directly to a carabiner. I prefer it without the strap, myself.

 

[Porkbrick]

im using tachyon for my bridge at the moment. sort of a hybrid saddle using the tree-flex upper half and home made leg straps.

Whatever came standard on my Cougar (before the recalled ones).

I think the Warp Speed is Amsteel Blue.

 

[bonner1040]

My bridge is the replacement bridge sent out by weaver for the cougars.

Amsteel? Here we go again...........

Sorry, Dyneema SK-75. Couldn't find the info on a quick web search, so I specified Warp Speed.

When I wore through the cover after three years of direct 'biners on bridge contact, the structural core still looked new.

You should really switch that one out.

 

[bonner1040]

Call weaver, they will next day air you a new one free of charge no questions asked. Actually they sent me two because i told them a friend bought the same harness from the retailer, which was true, didnt ask a single question.

Me too

Me as well, though I have the standard Sequoia, rather than the SRT.

 

[stig]

And I'll add myself to that tally!

 

[Koala]

Standard bridge on my Butterfly .

Looks like I'm in good company! I modified the begeebuz out of my dragonfly then realized that I should probably stick to original parts from the original manufacturer.

 

[tophopper]

So....whats the standard Petzl bridge made of?

 

[OTGBOSTON]

I dunno....don't care really.

 

[brendonv]

Is the Sequoia comfy? My saddle is way old, so I figured I'd renew it soon. Was thinking just another NT Pro, but I saw how simple the Petzl one is and it got me thinking.

I changed my mind on the Nikosi, it won't allow a one bag travel to the tree with climbing gear. Too big.
