Man some people have some talent, that’s awesome looking.

Question, would the integrated pouches be even better if they were angled the other direction? I feel like that would make them even easier to get in and out of, almost like how a jacket pocket is angled back towards you.

My thought would be yes if saddles wrapped more around the front side of our hips. Since the furthest forward most pouches can sit on most saddles is even or even behind the side of the hip it does make sense to me that it would be angled forward like shown. I guess you could try the pockets each way and see what you like more though.

I think the pockets are a sweet idea. I may incorporate them on a new build.

Yeah I'm not sure that would be fun. Opening the other direction would put the opening behind your hips.
 
A lot of guys loved the older Trophyline saddles that were shaped just like that. Back when they would round the bottom instead of the straight bottom. This saddle is almost a perfect replica of them. It looks amazing. I am sure that took some serious tinkering with to get it exactly how you wanted it to sit (geometry). I was never a fan of how the wider webbing went through the carabiner, but the old TL’s were pretty comfy. It also makes me think @Red Beard , all this time you were using the old school aerohunter evo, you should have been searching for those old school green family Trophylines!

My first was a trophy line.it got stolen.and when I decided to make my own I knew already what I wanted different.the seat patern was the first.they are actually very different.only the webbing bridge is close. It's nothing special.but nothing on it is the same as anything els.its not for everyone .nothing is.but you gotta understand red is at the advanced end of the spectrum when it comes to ultra light methods of getting up a tree.and the cloak is dope.
 
Soon all saddles will have tether holsters,and when it's figyered out that bridge loops alone cause hip pinch.they will ditch those for a desighnsaying. To attach an adjustible rope or amsteel mod .just sayin.humble as I can.
 
Ps.i loved my trophy line at the time.but I thought the shape was just off for me.and it was over built.i make my saddle for me to hunt out of the way I hunt,wich is long distance in thick brush,and steep.i didn't make it to sell.
