No kidding. I watched the links that H2 sent me on install and thought I would never be able to do it. Found this link, and you broke it down simple style, and after a couple of rewinds I got it done. Thanks for the help. Awesome instructional video!
Incredibly helpful. Thank you for posting. Used this to put a cruzr adjustable bridge on my mantis. They have a similar design except there is only 1 continuous amsteel loop and a spiced eye on the bridge. By far the best video i could find!
@@platinumpursuitoutdoors definitely a compliment! Most people just fly through the techniques. You and Greg staggs do the best how to videos. Good luck this year
Great video, just what i needed to see. I ordered one of these a few days ago. Update: I received my Triad Bridge in the mail today, and with the help of your video i got it installed and working. It took me a few tries, but i got there. Thanks again.
dbuckner902010 I personally have not had and experience with a whoopie sling bridge. Having said that, I have no problems at all with the TriAd Bridge.
My cruser xc came with an amsteel bridge but after my weight was in it I had a real hard time to get it release to adjust . I replaced it with a tubular webbing bridge . I think they were prussick hitch but it was a couple years back . Awesome tutorial I think I'm gonna switch back now with swabisch hitches on each end Where do you get the "kit " from h2 ?
Your bridge and loops look much more supple than mine are. Mine are rather stiff. They’re all black and feel like they’re coated in shoe polish like wax. Those swabish knots were a PITA to get tied but the real bummer is they are so tight they won’t slide.
Paul Crave that’s odd. Mine were black starting out. I have used mine quite a bit toying around with them. I can tie the schwabisch knot in about 15 second each loop. I can assemble and unassembled in under a min prob. Once you get the hang of it in that you invert it it becomes easy.
Aaron Wright Outdoors the rope feels like it’s coated in wax or something. The knots really bind up hard making them really hard to break lose to move them. I ended up making both the Prussic and the schwabisch with one fewer loops and they still bind super tight. I’m going to try some other Amsteel I have laying around for the bridge. It doesn’t feel waxy like the tribridge t Rope I got from H2
@@paulcrave3112 just got he Triad. Mine is the say way. Lots of wax coating and really stiff. Makes securing the bridge and adjusting the knots more difficult. With use and time the ropes should work themselves out eventually I think.
@@slaphappychappy I've moved mine several times and it's a huge effort each time. I hunted with it this morning and there was no way it was going to adjust with cold fingers. I gave up. It sucks.
Only issue I have with my Triad is it’s not easily adjustable. Once set, I have to forcibly feed slack into the schwabisch hitch and manually loosen the loops in order to adjust back to transport mode. Love the bridge but wish it was more easily adjusted during hunts.
Is there a way to tie the Distel on a continuous loop like you did the Swabisch? I have a continuous loop that I want to use for my Tether to tie a Distel but I can't for the life of me figure out how to the it with a loop.
Trying to figure this out because it's not working for me like it works for you in the video. What knot is that you were using and maybe I can look that up and try to figure it out that way.
pahuntnut It’s adjustable. You can shorten or lengthen it. Also you can change the pressure setting on your saddle by using the prusik knots and moving them on the hip loops.
I climb DRT and climbing with a long bridge is unnecessarily difficult. Adjustable bridge lets me shorten it while I climb, and then at hunting height I can lengthen for comfort and range of motion.
I’m not sure what you mean by an inline 8? But technically you could use any knot that would have enough bite to bite down on the lineman‘s loop. This particular not bites extremely well.
I would double check the schwabish (however it's spelled) hitch to make sure it is installed correctly. I have not had that problem. If you want to connect on IG or FB maybe you could send one pics and I will try to help you trouble shoot??
I had the same issue with mine, I was really frustrated but after undoing it and doing it over and over many time I realized I had installed it incorrectly, now its easy to move, looks better and feels better, hopefully you got it figured out,
