Well yeah better is subjective ESPECIALLY on this website lol. I'm not the super weight saving type so I'm thinking I'm going to wait til you guys sell your beast sticks and grab some if I don't like drt/srt“Better” is relative to each consumer... but they’re half the weight of the beasts your not gonna get a real answer yet because no one has the tethrd sticks... lol they won’t sell us the damn things

I did not know this.. You're telling me that no one has any of these in their hands yet? I guess I assumed the first batch had gone out and we were waiting on the second batch..
If they're on back order, why not let them be ordered away?
Yep just saw Garrett and his wife rocking them in the lastest vid. Must be nice...
Yup and yup. I am worried about them banging around and getting a dent in the tube...I guess I can see how that could possibly cause the tube to fold once weight is put on a step over time. Maybe not or maybe they have tested that already. Maybe there is no chance of even denting the tube....all questions at this point.The LWCG ambush was designed to be as light as possible. People were unhappy because compared to the assassin it has a lot of flex.
The mantis saddle was designed to be as light as possible. It seems to be widely regarded as one of the less comfortable saddles.
The gen 1 predator was designed to be as light as possible. There were immediate issues with breakage.
The LWCG double steps were designed to be as light as possible. I have seen videos of them flexing an insane amount.
Squirrel steps were designed to be as light as possible. They are not as steady on the tree as something like an Ameristeps.
Carbon bolts were "discovered" by people emphasizing weight savings abovAmeristar.
Some of these products I've loved and some I've hated. I've been partially responsible for creating and popularizing some of them. I would love a lighter and more compact stick. I am leery at this point of being an early adapter when it's been proven that a product can survive lab testing but not the real world.
I’m still too chicken to give carbon bolts a try but love my titanium bolts. I’m giving the titanium sticks a try also. It’s about weight but more like seeing if I like them enough to go five or six sticks instead of using an aider.The LWCG ambush was designed to be as light as possible.

I tried to look up titanium square tubing (1" and thin walled) but couldn't find it. Is it not made or are my google skills bad?
The idea was that you could buy the square tubing and then pair that with the EWO ultralight aluminum components.
But why? Titanium is more than double the weight and something like 11 times the cost of 6061.
