Shoulder bridge question


Recommended Posts

I'm a bit confused by the wording in the Level 2 section of the CRL for the shoulder bridge covers.

Covers are between .5 inch and 1 inch wide.

Does that mean that the gap between the front and back at the shoulders can only be an inch wide? Or does that mean, no matter how far the distance needed for a proper fit, the covers are up to an inch wide (so they would be, say 3 inches long but 1 inch wide)

Thanks.

The front and back armor should join relatively close together at the shoulder, and the width of the shoulder bridge cover, as marked by the line in the photo below, should be between 0.5" and 1".

It can be up to an inch wide, that is correct.   Any distance you need for a proper fit is to be found in the side chest straps.  Those can be as long as needed.  But the top shoulder straps should really touch each other, the cover is just to hide the seam where they join.  

It's not like a TK or Shoretrooper where there is a large gap between front and back armor.

Ok. That makes sense. I will give that a shot.
