You can already sit facing the stand on a .5. Either in the saddle or stepping over the cables if you want a crotch full of tree.

This is an interesting concept, and maybe it’s great for some. For me, I just see those cables as a trip hazard.

Guys it’s not a tree stand it’s a hybrid. You’re supposed to be facing the tree and utilizing side pressure not trying to be in a loc on in your saddle. Albeit it’s a bit, a slight bit of a paradigm shift . I’m thinking, I’m not sure though but the seat may be shaped to sit your knees against it not the tree. So your tether is longer you’re out away from the tree more to lean and or sit in your saddle and the platform is foldable in case you have to position like a regular tree stand for a shot.

That "seat" is 10"x 8" x 4". 8" being the width. Knee rest probably more likely the intent. Guys complain about the size of the standard LWCG .5 seat. I don't think anyone will be sitting this stand. The whole design is horrible.

They are the same weight. My one sticks were 18oz I believe.

The step geometry will also allow a single webbing loop with a knot to be used as a carry as you go aider. It will be much easier to attach aiders to these and the edges look chamfered so they won't eat the crud out of anything that rubs on them. If I didn't have 5 of the One sticks I'd probably buy these instead.

Aiders will attach better but I don’t believe they’ll pack batter. Plus I just can’t get over the attachment method.

So, with day one wrapping up I will say it was a little bit disappointing. Nothing really to get excited about. Hopefully some more stuff is released .

First time at the ATA? Sounds about normal… enjoy happy hour…lol
 
So VS. One Sticks you're gaining 1\4" step width, less than 1/4" step depth, losing 1 1/4" in between step height for about the same weight.
At a lower price point. Don't know the overall stacked height yet.

Don't know if it's compelling enough for anyone who already owns One Sticks. Not me anyway.

Well, the TL’s are less expensive, made in the USA, and the design was not stolen directly from a sh.com member…..

Pass on the sticks due to stand offs. That platform though..

OK i agree, if you already own something you are happy with its hard to justify the change. I did not see any sticks I would go out and buy. I will stay with my Novix single step mini sticks.

In the video he says just over 3 inches for 4 sticks.
