Bridge question

[Cory T]

I currently run a webbing bridge. I'd like to have a bridge that holds tight on my bridge loops. I tied a bridge using fishermans knot in some 8mm rope onto my saddle and pulled them tight. Worked pretty well. Testing this standing on the ground with webbing bridge as backup. I'd like to hear some thoughts on the fishermans knot on the bridge

I tied a whoopie sling as my bridge and so it makes it adjustable length or tight eyes on my d-loops if it’s pulled tight

took 550 paracord and tied my bridge to d-loop in place where it cant slide to the middle where it wants to sit. to me it sits better if it at the bottom of the loop.

IMO, bridges are always better if they grip the loops. Ive been doing it for over a year now.
I started out doing it with Amsteel, but now I'm doing webbing and tri slides.
The only issue is the slides I can find are not load rated. I am running a secondary bridge of Amsteel but there is no load on it, so, essentially, I am using a webbing bridge...its so smooth, I really like it.
I see the Flex bridge uses a tri slide. I assume that it was tested.
I wonder where Aerohunter sources those slides??

Hey Tom -
Didn’t you get the slides from para gear that are rated for 5000 lbs? What happened with those if you don’t mind me asking since I bought some too...?

I wasnt crazy about them.
Plenty strong, but I thought the slots were too open.

I like the fishermans knot for this application because its easily loosened an repositioned if needed. I'm no expert by any stretch of the imagination I was wandering if anyone has any concerns using this knot? I do really like my webbing bridge though. Maybe I'll consider tri glides.

Before I changed too a fixed length amsteel bridge, I was using an adjustable Samson predator bridge with a prusick tied to the saddle with a double fisherman's knot. Worked great

If you find a source for good, rated tri-glides please let me know! Thanks.

I guess what I'm asking is does anyone see an issue with tying my bridge on both loops with a fishermans knot?

I Use a Web Bridge W/ Water Knots on Both Sides. Works Great and Easy to Un Do and Move.
