Just got the new Tethrd menace in the mail yesterday and figured I would do a review or my thoughts on it since I couldn't find much feed back on it. To start I am 5'08" 145lbs so not a big guy but I consider myself a sitter. I've hunted out of the mantis since 2018 and I did like mantis only issue I had with it is it always rode up no matter how I had my tether set and how tight I had the leg straps. After my first sit in the menace I noticed a big improvement. I did a 4 hour set with no issues at all. It does cup more than mantis without a doubt, I would say it has a similar feel to the original kestrel. I have sat in a flex as well and its not quite as comfortable as the flex but a good bit lighter and a improvement over the mantis. I will note I do run an extra lineman's rope and prusik as an adjustable bridge and prefer it longer to lessen hip pinch while sitting and shorten it when I'm leaning. Hope this helps someone make a decision on the purchase.
PROS:
More Cup Under Legs
Solid Panel Seems To Give More Warmth In Colder Weather.
Good Quality Construction
All My Sys Haulers And Attachments Worked Well From Mantis
Nicer Waist Buckle
CONS:
No Adjustable Bridge Option
Didn't Come With More Tethrd Stickers.
