HAHAHA its all good, just giving you crap. Now if you sold it becuase you thought it didnt have a belt and it was annoying....Haha I'm a fool - I just assumed mine didn't have a belt, it never occurred to me that was the design premise.

The new TL is definitely looking promising. I"m going to wait for some solid reviews from people I trust after theyve put some time in hunting.Nah, I sold it because I could fit me and another 200lb person in it. I really like the kestrel I have - but I could be convinced to swap to this new rig if any of its distinguishing features set it apart. So far the kite flex and mantis have failed to be different enough In a good way to make sense.
I need to sell more saddles...
It lost me at leg loops! I agree with @kyler1945...not enough here to switch from my Flex, and not enough on my Flex that I would have upgraded to it had I already owned a Kestrel. We are seeing micro improvements at best from all makes, no real game changers. To quote @huck72412, I consulted my opinion, and he agrees! And for you getting ready to type it, I am a realist and know that unless some technology hits that we don't know about yet, there are likely only going to be micro improvements, only so many ways to do what we do!

New pic just dropped!
Still diggin the pouches, like the return of the bridge/waist belt, and am glad somebody is doing buckleless leg loops.

Sorry to spook you, it's a totally personal preference on my part. I'm sure it is a great saddle, as are all the options out there, it's just that each of us like our saddle gear slightly different and what I love you may hate. I'm not a big fan of leg loops and I know they would not be my favorite just from looking. I stand by my statement though, we are only seeing micro evolution, much like camo and other things on the market in the hunting world. Tethrd, AH, and Trophyline, are the same as Chevy, Ford, and Toyota. They are all fine, we each love a different one for different reasons.Can you explain what’s wrong with leg loops? I don’t know much about saddles lol. I orders a mantis awhile ago.

I currently have 3. none of which are main stream. Anderson, treesuit, sneaky sak(if you call that a saddle).
I just ordered a ARC tree sling from Canada. I really want to give it an honest try. It looks a lot like combination of the anderson and treesuit, or a slimmed down guidos. All of which I like. Got my fingers crossed for a winner.
The guys at ARC have also been outgoing and easy to deal with through email answering all my questions and sending additional pictures when requested.I never heard of ARC tree slings before, doesn't look so bad and they are 220 canadian, so about 167 in US dollars when i just checked now. Thanks for sharing that
I will start a "arc" thread when I receive mine--This should really be the place to discuss the new TL package. Sorry guys!The guys at ARC have also been outgoing and easy to deal with through email answering all my questions and sending additional pictures when requested.
