Who makes the best 5 step aider. Thinking about trying one.want one that the foot loops stay open the best. Any body use theses.

I would either make one or get a black diamond and use hose sections and tape to keep it stiff. Climbing up isnt a huge deal without stiffener, but climbing down in the dark gets a bit dicey.

Thanks for the input. I've tried some. And I can see the biggest problem is keeping the loop upen for decent

If you want a production one that Yates big wall aider is good...I had one and sold it as I didn't like the 5 steps. 3 step aider is the most I'd use and a two step is ideal.

Yates speed wall aider, it stays open and you can hook a string to it and move up with you

I found one on amazon. It was ok. From just looking at the higher end ones I didn’t see much difference. Now the ones on here that are more custom made are a different story.

I have black diamond I like it... I rappel down so I don’t have to fumble with the aider coming down the tree.. it’s easy getting up the tree though
