Adjustable bridge ?

[Carcher87]

I currently run an adjustable bridge on my kestrel using a prussick. Does anyone know how Aerohunter makes thier adjustable webbing bridge or how to do a Diy?

I have mine (tubular webbing) tied at one one side with an overhand knot bite, and have a nite ize dual CamJam as an adjuster, with a carabiner in the end loop. The CamJam is likely way overkill (and heavy) probably could just use a generic slider like you find on a rifle sling, but I’m having trouble finding ones with load rating. I suspect that might not be an issue, but need to firm that up. If I figure that out then it will be slider for sure

Could you post a picture?

Or would an amsteel whoopie sling bridge be better

I am using a Petzl ring open and a CT Rollnlock and a piece of Teufelberger KM Max with sewn eye. Light ever so easy to adjust and abrasion resistant.

Yes Sir :^D



I'm thinking of changing out the camjam with a simple tree step cambuckle if I can't find the right slider. One of these:


nice thing about the camjam though, is that the ramps the the webbing feeds through won't let the tubular webbing twist as it enters with is a royal pain in the rear with other buckle types. Stiff webbing (like what you see being stuffed through the cambuckle here, takes care of that, but I like the amazing strength of the tubular nylon. I'd be picky about the cambuckle too. I have confidence in the Ankra brand. the no-names I'd stay away from

All that said, I'll switch to a slider when I find one that is confidence worthy. I'm sure someone would consider my setup unsafe so....

Strap sliders/adjusters I'm after, something like this that gives a load rating..:
