Using climbing spikes how is the easiest way to transition onto your XOP platform?

I set the platform then climb up beside it or even the back side until I can basically step down into the platform.

It is easy, but be careful to avoid loud metal on metal contact. Anyone wrap the bottom of the stirrup to quiet it down?
What are the thoughts of wrapping all the cast webbings of the platform with rope, similiar to this but the whole platform ? Should prevent stirrup clank...and be quieter to carry and set up...It is easy, but be careful to avoid loud metal on metal contact. Anyone wrap the bottom of the stirrup to quiet it down?
Yep, I wrapped my spikes with paracord. It didn't stay very well thoughIt is easy, but be careful to avoid loud metal on metal contact. Anyone wrap the bottom of the stirrup to quiet it down?

I hope it works out for you. I found it on youtube under Lone Wolf tree stand mods. Sometime two hunting seasons ago or thereabouts, There are other linked mods that also cover the rope mods to climbing sticks, one sticking , etc....hope it doesn't consume all your freetime....lolAlright, thanks. I'm wrapping my platform tomorrow. Great idea, because I keep clanking my spurs on the edges.
