The Wraptor

Thanks Nick! We will be adding belts once we can test them out and see where and how we want them attached. Going to use the rings for both bridge and linesman attachment point (saw that somewhere on here before using Petzl rings). Will test with tubular and splice an amsteel bridge once the desired length is found. I am going to give one sticking a try and may not need a linesman anyway if that pans out. @KelvinM12 and Barry may tweak theirs different than me as we test. For the price and simplicity of making these, figured we couldn't go wrong on these too much and can wait on a new commercial saddle when we see what comes out next. Hopefully this inspires more guys to give the sling a shot and avoid those $150 antique Anderson costs too!

Granted, @Bwhana is making me one of these, but I must say I'm excited about the possibilities! I was very impressed with how the Anderson sling style saddle felt when I tried one down at Saddlepalooza. @Bwhana did his homework on the design and measurements, and then added his own details to this one. Can't wait to try it! Finish it already! lol
 
they are nice glade to see my anderson stated your jurney lol

EXACTLY!!! According to @Bwhana, the two duke losses to UNC “don’t matter.” That’s when you know it hurts! LOL!
 
I think the webbing in yours just got messed up for some reason! We shall see how the real tournament turns out in a few weeks when it counts.

We're taking college badminton right? ;)
 
Sewn and tested for about 45 mins with an accessory cord for a quick bridge only. It is as comfortable as I hoped, and I really like the adjustments allowed by having the two separate sections. You can make infinite tweaks to the positions and just 1/4" made all the difference in the world. I see why @John Eberhart has used his for so long now. I will be adding an amsteel fixed bridge and belt soon. Once those and more ground level testing is done, I will start climbing and test at height. Crocs are required for proper testing!
