Soft stitch bridge attachment

[Ballshooter]

I thought I would give it another go this time I used 6mm TRC and made it more compact worked amazing one hand adjustable even weighted! I now have more real-estate on my bridge compared to the swabach hitch Prusik Loop I had.

I also use the soft stitch for the lineman's and the lifeline, best hitch I've ever tested so far !

So you are mixing amsteel and regular rope? I’ve been wondering if that was acceptable.

If anyone ever tries this setup I can’t imagine you ever wanting anything else. I’ve tried numerous different adjustable bridges and the soft sticth is by far the best. It’s so small and compact, I have one saddle set up with a fixed bridge and the other with the hitch tied to a carabiner for an openable bridge. I think Brocky needs an award or something for introducing this hitch!!!!!! I also use this hitch on my tether, along with the better tether hitch for attachment to the tree!

Guess I have been sleepin, is there a video anywhere of tying this?

If you know how to tie the soft sticth hitch, you just use your bridge loop as the carabiner and tie around it. I double wrap mine so it makes the hitch stay wherever I put it, so I can adjust where the pressure on my saddle is placed. I don’t have a video but might be able to get you one.

Well that was a DUH!!! moment huh?

Lol, it’s all good my friend. Sometimes things just seem complicated at first glance! Give it a try and I feel you will be most pleased with it. God Bless

Yes the only difference is I do a double wrap around the bridge loop before going back through the soft ring to finish the hitch so it will hold where I put it!

I would have tied a prussik-like with the 2 tails around the bridge loop instead of just 2 wraps, I would help to keep the balance tuned even when the bridge is unloaded

Thats what I did the sticht stays were I move it to on the bridge loop. Here is a better picture
