H2 Triad Bridge

Put mine on my H2 tonight. Had to watch video and pause and rewind numerous times but got it after about 15 minutes and I am not good with knots.
 
So do guys like the bridge they are selling?

I have a Samson Predator bridge on my kestrel and I hate it. Too long. Not adjustable. Bulky.

I'm not a fan of the predator rope bridge either. Have you seen the utillibridge? It's supper easy to DIY. I posed the materials and a video a couple weeks back. Do a utilibridge search and it should pop up.
 
I have not used it yet but like the adjustability of i. I would of preferred to have a longer bridge to start with since I could always adjust it to a shorter length. Did not measure the bridge but would like to be able to put it over shoulders while walking and at maxed out length I can not do that. Will try it today. I liked of my previous bridge that cam with the H2 for comfort on arms and forehead (napping) but we will see.
 
I made my own version combo of utilibridge and triad version.. i made a eye loop 10" then made a prussic knot on my left loop and made a prussic swabish on my right loop..easy adjustability and i used 3/16" amsteel doubled up on main line and loop and used 1/8" on the pru/swab combo also doubled up..no need for the comfort channels doing this method..looks down perfect

i have never touched Amsteel. I know it’s easy and soon as I mess with it I will be ok but I’m just not confident to trust my life to my Amsteel skills when I’ve never touched it. I was hoping Tethrd would sell them but it doesn’t look like they will.

It's stupid easy.
 
How big are the continuous loops? And what size amsteel on the loops?
 
THANK YOU FOR THAT VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!! You'd think it would be on their website, I wont even say how long I struggled after accidentally undoing my bridge,
 
I tied that damn knot wrong at least a dozen times on each side and finally got it right when I watched the video upside down. Emailed Heath and asked him to film himself tying it from his perspective looking down and he made a new video to send out with new orders.
 
Amen. Testify. The Struggle is REAL! I actually got the knot on the second crack with this video. Had to do some serious out of body analysis though. It was the 739 attempts BEFORE the video that has me with a case of Corona(LIGHT with a lime).

Where can you watch the new video?

Being that I just emailed him to give feedback on the video on Thursday...I’d assume he is probably in the process of making said video and will probably send it out with new orders.

The ultribridge moves well after loading. The triad works well but locks up much tighter after loading .
The triad design is great but the lack of bury and perhaps the rope itself restricts the movement after loading

I will try making a triad or ultrabidge from Oplux and a Beal jammy or another Prussic type cord. It will not be as strong as fully buried Amsteel 1/4. But it will actually be lighter

You could combine the two into one. Instead of permanently splicing the segments around the loops on your saddle, give yourself like an 8” loop on the bridge piece of your “utilibridge” and make your continuous loop slightly larger like 12-14 inch and make a prusik with loop on end of bridge and attach closed loop like triad bridge and boom, both combined into one with only 1 side bridge length adjustment. Does that make sense? I call it the ultibridge lol or ultimate-bridge. I like the adjustments of triad but wish it was one sided like tethrds so I just took the parts of both I liked. One less piece but all the same capabilities.
