3rd rope is the linesman rope to go around the tree so you’re secured while you set up the the tether/bridge. Like fall protection with two lanyards. You Hook #2 before unhooking and moving #1
The leg straps you’re using really need to be significantly tighter! Any time you have a climbing or fall harness on one of the worst things to do is have the straps loose. Yes, it’s more comfortable. But if you actually fall the excess material will allow it to slip further up your crotch and engulf your nether regions, then whenever it gets tight it cause an evulsion. Basically it will crush your dick and balls. Keep the straps high and tight to prevent this. Also, those other straps are so if you do fall out of the tree you can use them to step up to relieve tension from your legs & prevent compartment syndrome.
Get you an ascender if you plan to use it in the field, much easier. This is the setup I have with xop mini sticks. First year saddle hunting for me. Goodluck this year
I think the extra "leg straps" are for you to put your foot on and relieve weight on the crotch straps in the event you're hanging for awhile after a fall. But I could be wrong.
I just got this and the carabiner(the clip) is solid. It’s not going anywhere. The ropes attached to the carabiner are also rated for 3500lbs I thinks it’s safe😅
I'm torn between just buying this, or just a trophy line cover lite saddle because my cousin has extra gear so I only reall need the saddle for now, as you said, upgrade the saddle so I'm going to get the TL
The saddle isn’t the comfiest. My buddy has a cruzr saddle and it’s like sitting in a recliner up there. Very comfortable, but is pricey for a saddle too.
Dude. I’ve watched like 10 videos on this and yours helped the most. Thank you!

Push platform down good and hard before you lay the base down. It will further cinch platform in place so it does not shift on you. FYI

It comes with a dedicated one of those as well ...

Good video. Im torn on just running a light lock on setup or getting this saddle. Im leaning towards sticking with lock ons...
Saddle are so versatile. I shot my buck this year out of my saddle. The tree I was in was pretty crooked and I couldn’t get a hang on stand in it

Just got mine in. I think I am going to use the harness leg straps to connect my sticks to as I climb the tree for quick access
Smart move!
Quarantine 15😂 great vid I’ve been considering buying and this helped a lot!
Shorten them ropes up and you’ll be much more comfortable

The other leg straps are to be used if using the harness as a 5 point harness for tree stands.
Good shit thank u man
Idk about the little plastic clip holding you in
It’s metal, not plastic
Ian....its safe.
