I need to talk to andrew eventually. I think a 6 stepp bag is ideal for a lot of guys here. I picked up a 5 stepp bag. It will work 90% of the time but 6 stepp would be take me to 100%

That would be money. I ordered Predator so if I like that better that would drop me to 5 steps max

Which WE Stepp climbing method have you decided on? I know you were doing the @redsquirrel tether method last season, are you gonna try kaider/swaider or something else?
good call - yes pleaseBass.... how about a video showing your system? I'd like to be able to visualize it better.
It's been on the list. Just need to make time. Worst case it'll happen in September when using it for hunting.good call - yes please

so I am going to test out a 3 step aider I picked up this spring. It's still sitting in the garage though LOL. I saw a link G2 posted a long time ago, and it seems to be a good middle point between red's webbing loop and the 5-6 step aider that I think bassboy is using. I just felt like an extra couple of loops would allow me to get more space between stepps. My other method this year will be bolts - BUT - I'm looking real hard at getting in on the Kiwi buy - with the National Forest now, they just shot up in priority - and they are legal where I am.
How much of a difference is there between the old ropes from when Jim manufactured them to the new stepp ropes??

Have you made sure both sides of the rope goes under the standoff’s when going around the tree? I had trouble when I would accidentally have one going over.I can’t seem to get mine cammed over consistently. I have a set of the old ones from Jim, and the rope seems a hoot but finicky. I spent several hours with the steps and still had major problems with them just popping up after seeming to be secured. I’m hoping that an amsteel mid May help with the problem.
The one thing I haven’t done yet is stretching out the rope like it is brand new (since the stepps are several years old, and changed hands a couple times). I have decided to try that before giving up on the Stepp Ladder completely.

Man this kind of post makes me nervous about WE stepps, they seem pretty solid to me, but I just got em and haven't even stretched out the ropes yet. I kinda hope it's @IkemanTX's fault and not the rope/stepps, lol
Yep. One problem is most trees around here have very deep/rough bark. I can’t get the Stepp to lift higher than the rope around the tree. Another problem I’ll have is it will be dang near impossible to cam over it’s so tight, but will still be loose enough that the top will lean away from the tree as soon as I put weight on it.... kinda paradoxical.
