I don’t honestly know. Since I made the knots as small as I could and cut the extra, I have no idea.

I’m thinking the same thing, I have a webbing bridge on my kite and I’m not a huge fan. Trying to make sure I wanna go a different route before i go to cutting

Oplux Bridge with Amsteel Prusiks
I just received my Cruzr. I took a page out Latitude Outdoors book and made this Oplux bridge with 1/8 Amsteel. Initial thoughts and test are ... the Amsteel bites well on the Oplux sheath and I did not see any slippage. I like the idea of Oplux here. It can easily and quickly be replaced. No...

True, but if the other end of the Oplux isn't tied to the bridge loop, as in when only the TRC is attached to the plate on the Recon, you're relying on the strength of the TRC.
It may very well be fine due to the TRC being doubled in a loop. However, I'm just trying to think it all the way through as I'm considering a Recon and wanted an easily adjustable bridge for SRT/rappel.

I didn’t care for the recon for rope climbing or rappelling. Hard to keep on your hips without sliding up or around. I didn’t feel secure. Again, before the recon apostles attack I am going to reiterate that I only felt that way climbing rope, rappelling and one sticking.
So I was thinking about this design further. I don't know if the length would work out right, but this may be another possible option for the prusik.

The 6.8 mm T-Vac is a high strength specialty cord that features a Technora sheath and nylon core. The T-Vac is a small, high strength rope for use as a prusik on your lineman’s line or tether. This prusik was specifically designed for use on the Sterling Oplux 8mm rope.

I love my adjustable rope bridge.
10mm main line, 8mm prusik. Put prusik on rope, then girth hitch prusik to bridge loop. (You will have to pass the whole rope thru)
Then on the other side, tie a girth hitched knot. Step by step photos here:

Something more like this? The main rope is a stand in. Ill make sure I address the stopper knots. I will send you a picture of my adjustable bridge when I get home from work. It offers comfort and adjustability without sacrificing anything in the safety department. Oh, and it acts like a...

Am I a genius, or just stupid...
I've been racking my brain on trying to find a way to girth hitch both sides of sit drag bridge with my 8mm rope, and I think I figured it out, but what some second opinions before trying it. What I did was tie a monkey fist at each end, double it over pass both ends through the loop. On the the...

H2 triad adjustable bridge. Just got mine and put it on. Haven't been in a tree with it yet though. Looks like it will be awesome.
