Well I got my Yates ladder in on Friday and am disappointed as it just does not work as good as my off set stepped aider. The first few steps work great but as you near the top the foot becomes harder to get in the loop. I am sure that it would work just fine with the Wild Edge Stepps but I don't use those. If anyone wants it I am just looking to get my money back out of it so shoot me a PM.

You must not follow me I have been saying that straight ladders suck for YEARS! Lol! I have owned dozens of types and brands and always end up back with the black diamond or CMI

When you're ready with the pics, please post them in the Classifieds as that would be more appropriate.

As for your experience, thanks for sharing. I've only used the offset kind.

Before you sell it, you should seriously consider a paracord cobra weave wrap over the webbing.

My daughter helped me out last night with one on my CAYG aider (kids are so useful!). We used some OD paracord with a reflective stripe in it. Took us less than 10 minutes to fashion up. 7 feet of paracord works out to about 7 inches of cobra wrap and that's a plenty to get a size 10 boot into every time.

I'm convinced that if I had done this with my Metolius pocket aider, I would still have it in the tool belt. It makes all the difference for a ladder-style aider.

what is the program that I need to use to convert the photos so I can post them to the classifieds? I can't remember.
