So, we have rain forecasted for the next 3 days. It’s time to address the bridge on my Mantis. It’s too damn long! I am more of a leaner and prefer a lower tether with a 24” bridge length (on a sit drag).
Amsteel has become my choice bridge material. I like how the bury on the mantis bridge leaves a little section right in the middle that is thinner. It acts like a “detent”.
I have been thinking about how I want to tackle this shortening. I know that I do not want any hardware on the bridge. I could Brummell one side and lock stitch the other but I am not to fond of the lock stitching. A whoopie sling may be a better option and be nice if I ever want to rappel again.
Has anyone hacked into their new Mantis? Does anyone have a better idea?
