Back band prussic loops

[Tr33_n1nj@]

So apparently I lost mine, I may or may not have left them attached to my bridge at some point but regardless they are lost without hope of recovery. I have a closed webbing bridge with a heavy duty slider. Anybody see a reason why I can’t just tie permanent loops on my bridge to attach the back band to? Yeah it’s something on my bridge that I’d have to manage as I clip in to make sure they aren’t both on the same side or I don’t accidentally clip my tether into a paracord or zing it loop. But I’m thinking it will beat being up a tree with no way to attach it to my bridge. Thoughts? Suggestions? Safety warnings?

I took a length of amsteel and tied one end to the other. Then I put it over my back and my arms though the large loop the amsteel made and hook it to my carabiner. I can still adjust it and move turn around with it.

I converted mine to a generation 2, instructional video on tethered webpage. Simple to do and makes an excellent back band

Yup, I just made my own with webbing and a quick release slide buckle. Flip it up over my neck & shoulders, clip it together and run it up through the tether biner. Then pull it to the desired tightness. Dont really need extra padding with all the layers on this time of year.

Two little prusiks out of D-loop material work great and cost nothing.

I added Amsteel and a couple bowline knots. Hooks to the biner. Scrap mans Gen 2.
