After ages in the stock single-bridge config, I've finally decided to try dual-bridges on my MB 2.0. Not for redundancy but to run two different climb-systems together. I use the saddle almost entirely for spur work (I use a TreeMotion s.Light for pruning/actual climbing) and have set one a bit shorter and one a bit longer. On this saddle I mostly expect to use this setup to run a DRT line off one bridge, and my grapple on the other bridge, to move horizontally between tall firs. It will take a while before I have enough situations running it to know how I like it.
I also swapped the Notch Swinger saw-holder I've been using recently for a Shembeiner XLS, and today was the first use of it. I plan to make a thread discussing various saw-holders in the near future, as I've used a number of different systems over the last few years and have some thoughts. Honestly I love the Notch Swinger 80% of the time and hate it 20% of the time, which is enough for me to basically toss it in the 'bin of shame' in my shop and forget about it. Initial results with the Shembiner XLS are extremely promising. Prior to this most recent experimenting, I've used and enjoyed the transPorter for many years, and you can see one on my non-dominant side of the saddle as an accessory holder. Obviously this is all based on personal preference.
