    Wild edge steps with etrier method...how to hook on step?

    This probably would work just takes a little extra time to clip and unclip to move up and down. Is that 1/4” amsteel mod on your wild edge steps?

    Wild edge steps with etrier method...how to hook on step?

    I also see where people c/o climbing down being more difficult with kick outs but I saw another vid somewhere where the guy put paracord or something taped to the right and left of where you’d want the hook to stay in the middle of the wild edge step crossbar. That way the hook doesn’t slip out...

    Wild edge steps with etrier method...how to hook on step?

    For those of you using the 3-4 wild edge step method with 5 step etrier, how are you hooking the etrier to the crossbar on the step to climb? It seems like it would need to be something you can lift off and pull up to the next step and not a locking carabiner...

    Predator platform with 2 ameristeps at 3 and 9 o clock

    So I’m waiting on my predator platform and got the idea that adding ameristeps on the platform strap would give me more mobility in the tree. Then I noticed that the predator platform strap is above the platform some so I’m questioning whether or not it would be comfortable to have those...

    Prusik material safety???

    Ok so I repeat, is it safe to use 8mm accessory as prusik material for a tether or linesman’s belt? Does it have adequate MBS?

    Prusik material safety???

    As a newb in the saddle hunting world I’m wondering why everyone for safety is so adament on a 25 kN threshold for gear and using climbing rope but seems the prusik knot is the weakest link in the system. Are most of the companies and DIY saddle system builders using 8mm accessory cord? Or is...

    Poll: Which is better option Amsteel Daisy Chain(7/64) or Versastrap

    Hmmm I thought there’d be more opinions on this. I was using 8mm accessory cord which is probably why I got so much elongation. I didn’t know any better at the time or that static rope would be that much better. Now I’m really thinking the convenience of either the amsteel daisy chain or the...

    Poll: Which is better option Amsteel Daisy Chain(7/64) or Versastrap

    I’m considering which method to use for attaching sticks to tree. I’ve done the 8mm rope mods on XOPs the last 2 seasons but not happy with the stretch/sag and tendecy to kick out on larger diameter trees. Should I make some Amsteel Daisy Chain or just buy some Versastrap lite when Tethrd has...
