I believe I read it will be the complete kit only.Any word on whether or not you can buy just the saddle without the kit and what the price point would be?

I read the same thing, and i believe i heard they were looking at a 279.00 - 289.00 price point for the whole kit... BUT... my memory could be wrong so take it for what it's worth...I believe I read it will be the complete kit only.
I think they are going to lose out on some sales, if that is the case. I would be interested in trying the new version, but I don't want to pay for all of the extra accessories that I already have. Bummer...
Not much, aside from what they've been posting on social media.
Ok 10/4 I got my on that tooNot much, aside from what they've been posting on social media.
Their FB page shows someone hanging in one and it's a webbing bridgeI like the idea of sewn friction knots a lot. As far as the bridge, I would hazard to guess that it will most likely be webbing, like the original trophyline.
You're already buying lots of webbing to make the saddle. Why not use it for the bridge too?
Glad they're keeping the webbing waistbelt/bridge. I think that's a slick design.For the guys wanting to see it "on a butt" and wondering what type of bridge. This is from their FB page

Sure it does. Only so many ways you can make a butt-sling. Fixed leg loops and the bridge/belt combo are a pretty different approach though. There isn't that much different between a kite, kestrel, and/or mantis.From what I can tell that saddle looks similar to most other saddles on the market.
And they were the first commercial "hammock" style saddle(more than just straps)...every other saddle is really a rendition of the TL to some extent...Sure it does.

Yep. Saying the TL looks like every other saddle is like saying the great grandfather in the room looks just like his 17 descendants!And they were the first commercial "hammock" style saddle(more than just straps)...every other saddle is really a rendition of the TL to some extent...
