Can the bridge be used to support your bridge hand on a jump shot?

I was just messing around on my table and I played a poor position shot and needed to jump a ball. The cue ball was close to the blocking ball and far out on the table. I set the bridge down, then used it to hold my bridge hand, I then used a dart stroke and popped the cue ball over the blocking ball and made a good hit. It was a bit wobbly but gave me a good angle. You have to be ready to grab the bridge quickly. Is that legal?
