I'm working on a sit drag mod. I slapped a lone wolf stand strap on there to have a way to adjust the length of the bridge with the cam buckle, and once dialed in i'll make a permanent bridge.
While doing this I had an epiphany - I rotated to my left and the bridge slid through the carabiner as I rotated. I became concerned briefly as I turned that it would slide all the way down to the loop on the sit drag and I'd be upside down. Instead, the cam buckle caught right at about the limit of where I'd want rotation to stop (completely accidental).
This gave me a great idea - I want the freedom of a solid bridge with "stops" at either end of travel Thinking a simple way to do this is a knot in my bridge at each stopping point.
Question - How freely do the amsteel bridges slide through the carabiner under load? Is it slippery or can you control it? The lone wolf strap slid in a very controlled manner I was surprised.
Anyone see issues with having a knot in the bridge to catch at the carabiner when I'm rotated fully in either direction? Based on my accidental experiment it looks like about 10-12" between the stops would be ideal.
I'm sure I'll play with this and have more answers for myself......but...work....
