    Sit Drag without RCH

    It's a double amsteel bridge sheathed in 1" tubular webbing. The webbing was a solution to the two bridges flopping around. It also slows down the bridge in the carabiner giving more control when moving to get the shot. Basically did the usual locked brummel on one end then pulled the two...

    Double sit drag..

    I think so...dont know the exact specs of 7/64th amsteel but I'm sure it's up to the task. For me the mental game gets in the way....hanging from tiny looking string just creeps me out!

    What bridge length do you find most comfortable with your Sit-Drag?

    Mine are around 34" ...while on the ground, grab a pull strap and hook it up as the bridge and start playing around. I started with 24" and kept releasing slack until it felt just right.

    The Sit Drag in Retrospect

    This double sit drag is great. Real nice for this time of year with heavy clothes, too. I tried using just one sit drag and quickly realized it wasn't enough....overlapped my spare and GOLD Jerry! Plus this configuration has a built in backup. For ~$80 and my time, I found a keeper.

    Modded out kite...1200hp!

    Yep, except the webbing slips over the two bridges then sew down the middle, between the two bridges to keep everything tight and from slipping. 1St Make lock brummels, slip appropriate length tubular webbing over the two bridges, make loops and lock stitches, then slide webbing into position...

    First impression of climbing with LW Hand Climber

    And don’t forget to climb with your bow on your back. You already are standing on your platform while you climb. If Bambi comes by your ready. If it’s the rut he might come to you wanting to know who’s scratching his tree. How many times have deer moved in while climbing up or down? With this...

    First impression of climbing with LW Hand Climber

    I learned last week that I'm going to need some good gloves when the tree is wet. Got 25' up and my hands were soaked.

    Double sit drag..

    The middle portion is tubular webbing slipped over the amsteel mainly to capture the two bridges forming one. An added bonus was the increased resistance when sliding through the carabiner (more control when shifting weight). To keep the webbing from moving, I added a stitch along the whole...

    Lw hand climber/ saddle video

    These are straps that come with hand climber. ...they have a closed loop on one end so I lasso'd around the platform under the arm then used a backpack strap adjuster to make the rest of the foot strap. They work, but I rather have something I can cinch tight...still tryn different buckles.

    Which saddle?

    I used two pull straps to determine my bridge(s) length. More or less started at 24" and increased the length of the straps till it felt good. Bridge ended up being 34" for the upper and 34.5" for lower which is longer than I expected but doesn't hinder me in any way. If the lower bridge is...

    Which saddle?

    I think the trick to the comfort is adding additional webbing to the sit drag fabric. It adds support to the fabric dispersing your weight better. I hand sewed these together with the speedy stitch awl. Just did it in the evening. ...prolly an hour total. The belt is a riggers belt I had laying...

    Which saddle?

    Double sit dragz is the most comfortable, lightweight, saddle/sling I have ever used. Cheap too...under a $100 for two sit drags and some amsteel (or whatever you prefer fo a bridge) with a waist belt and you're good. If you wanna see my creation, search for "lw hand climber video" ....gives a...
