    WTB - Saddle, platform, more

    I'm just getting into saddle hunting this year and am looking to buy a saddle and other gear. I'm younger than some of the guys here, but coming up on 60 this year, I'd like something with some comfort and back support: preferably Kestrel Flex or JX3 Hybrid or maybe a Cruzr XC. I'd also like...

    Is Yarak and Kestrel Flex the same saddle?

    I watched a YouTube video with the WE guys and they said they work with aero hunter and designed the flex but they also produce their own? I ordered a kestrel flex but I’m reading people calling Yarak the flex. Just looking for some clarity on the difference between the two of they work for aero...

    Kestrel Flex bridge options

    Hey guys, I have been eyeing up a kestrel flex to purchase and want know if any users can give me some input on what bridge option works best. I’m liking the rope bridge but most of the reviews on YouTube seem to be using the webbing bridge. New to the forum, thanks for any info.

    First real saddle sit

    Definitely have some dialing in to do still, but fudge me if this Kestrel isn’t the most comfortable sit I’ve ever had in the woods. Did some minimal practice at ground level, but I can definitely see what kinda of swinging and positioning I need to practice still. My hold on side pressure...

    Permethrin on your saddle?

    I looked for a similar thread, but I only found the generic permethrin threads with very few saddle-specific thoughts on Permethrin. I’m sure 99% of us bathe in it and drown our clothes and backpacks in it, but does it have any ill effects on the saddle material itself? Is it even necessary...

    Another win for AH/NT

    Just got my OG Kestrel, and I am pleasantly surprised by what I found. To give some background, I ordered by phone and have been treated like their only customer every time I have called or emailed in reference to the order. Mainly Debbie, but also Sophia, have been tremendous. I had to...

    Please close....Amok Camping Hammock package New

    This is a brand new Amok Draumr top of the line camping hammock. It comes with the hammock, rain fly and air mattress. I bought this as a complete camping kit for $380 plus shipping costs.

    Kestrel Flex Modifications

    With this being a new product and what seems like so many people buying these I figured it would be good to start a mods/improvements thread. I am very happy with this saddle as it comes. My only complaint was the flex pleat not staying closed when I wanted it to. So I took it to a sew shop and...

    aerohunter bridge length and tree tether.

    Hey there, I received my aerohunter kite about a week ago. It really seems very comfortable, easy to use, and well made. The only issues I’m having with it is that the bridge seems too long and I ordered the longer tree tether in order to be able to wrap the rope 2x around tree and It seems...

    WTB Kestrel Size 2 or XL Mantis

    Looking to buy a Kestrel Size 2 or XL Mantis for an upcoming hunt. Would prefer to just have the saddle, as I already have all the ropes/accessories I need. If need be, I'll just use my SitDrag for this hunt and order a new one, but thought I'd check to see if anyone has one they don't need...

    Saddle setup in the tree yesterday.

    Kestrel, Tenzing TZ 1440, etc all hanging out for my last sit of the year. New carabiners work great . Xop platform is rock solid and as you can see my giant feet fit pretty well. Changed out my bridge to 10 mm 22 KN static line with a spliced end and a manual locking round shank, HMS style...

    Kestrel bridge as second lineman belt?

    Was out getting a tree set up last weekend which was also my maiden voyage with my size 2 Kestrel. First off some changes I made from stock set up in the two weeks I've had it.. I put a Ropeman 1 and carabiner on one side of the bridge - as it comes the bridge is way too long for my taste. And...
