We've been working hard the past few weeks to come up with some big changes to our vendor policies to meet the changing needs of our community. Please see the new vendor rules here: Vendor Access Area Rules
Red! Order a pair of these and let us know :)

I've seen the idea, I looked around for a pair but couldn't find them in the US anywhere. As is I don't think they'd work well for us (too big and noisey), but I wanted to get hands on them for some inspiration. Short of being limited by tree sizes I think the EONPOW climbers are better than those.

LOL!
My problem right now is that they clink around a little. In order to keep them silent I had wrapped them closed, but then they weren't adjustable. Tree size is always going to be limited, but it would be very helpful to be able to adjust them about halfway up the tree, I'm sure you'd only have to do it once. A problem with the design for me to do customizing is that the bars they are built on are triangles. I havent' found too many parts that fit on triangles lol. I tried a set of these to tighten them down, but they just don't fit well https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013N7DIR8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
For climbing though, they work great, actually better than spurs because you are standing on a little platform. If were were to design a set of these and build them we could build a much better set. The idea is solid. You can even climb around branches no problem.
If definitely is!
Square or round tubing, I'm not sure which would be better. The straps they had on there were a joke. I rigged something up with a cam buckle strap that goes over the front of my foot and around the back. Very simple but it works well.
The biggest change needs to be a way to slide the bar in and out and then lock it off. The way it is, there is no way to lock it off. And the build quality needs to improve.
