Bridging gcode a bit pretentious? No grip on solid.

Hi all, I am stuck with this one.The first image depicts the object and the face you see is the face on the print bed. As you see there are strips of material that are a bit at a higher z in respect to the print bed. I am trying to obtain those reliefs with bridging because I am not a fan of supports. In the right image you see two consecutive bridging lines. The first line I can say is always(or almost) successful. However the gcode then transitions to the second line with a small line(orange). There are two problems:
1-This small line often doesn't make a good grip on the solid. The result is that sometimes the first bridge line is carried towards the second line.
2-The second line is almost never successful because there is not enough PLA flow when it starts the bridging and there is not enough grip to the solid.
I am now experimenting with bridging flow. However I have the feeling that the gcode is a bit excessive in wanting to that make small orange move and thinking that it will provide grip easily. An suggestion?
