rope bridge on evolution

I am trying to get used to my newly acquired evolution. I still have my tree saddle, and was curious how everybody is packing their bridge while walking in since it does not cinch down like the tree saddle does
 
I just about fold the bridge in half and taking both halves of the rope tie a simple overhand knot to keep the length shorter

I took off the blakes hitch and cut my bridge to size. So now I just pull both knot ends of the bridge pulling the slack out of the center having the knot ends hang on each side. Then I just tuck the 2 knot ends in under some of the straps (webbing) on each hip. Leaves just a little slack of rope hanging off each hip. Out of the way and comfortable.

That's pretty much the same thing I do
 
I cut down my bridge to a fixed length as well. I just tie the 2 ends in a loose knot for walking in.
 
I did away with the rope as it is too bulky for me. I went to a nylon climbing runner 24 inches in length. But then again I am a tinkerer by natures so I did a lot of mods to my evolution to make it a minimalist hunting saddle.
 
Hey guys. Has anyone tried running a rope bridge through something like a heater body suit?

I think someone did, possibily dwaters? If you look for one of the earlier threads on them you might find it.
