    Tree Styx

    These have my attention. What's the maximum weight rating on them? I'm 6'2", 240-250 depending how good the wife's dinner is.lol I really like the attachment method on the One stick and sticks in general, but not the China part.

    You are going to be very happy I am sure. Mine is perfect for me, I do not think I will be changing anything when I order my second one.

    One sticking. Do you use separate tethers?

    I use a separate tether and keep my rappel rope in my back pack. I hate roll pouches and having stuff on my saddle in general. The argument for using just your rappel rope for a safety reason is one I never thought about. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tethrd One Sticks Gen 2

    Seems it hasn't been corrected or you're very unlucky. I'd be sending them back them back for sure. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Best tether knot that works well with a tender?

    I've been using the Arbsession Hitch. I've tried a bunch and like this one the best so far. It's compact and breaks easily even under partial load. My next favorite is a JRB...

    Why not use dynamic rope for one-sticking?

    What rope are you using? For my tether and bridge I'm using Edelrid Swift Protect Pro Dry 8.9mm. It's labeled as a dynamic rope but also has very good abrasion resistance. I do not think it's as dynamic as some ropes in its size though due to the abrasion resistance it has. I also have a...

    LWCG The Fix

    Have you guys that are having issues tried a different cam buckle strap? Mine works almost too good with the OG Lone Wolf ones. I just tried it with the Tethrd version, and the Timber Ninja one and it pulls from the tree. That really doesn't shock me as those two don't work well at all on their...

    LWCG The Fix

    I agree it bites so hard for me that it's boarder line to much of a bite. Leaves massive marks in the tree that are penetrating into the cambium layer. The below are taken today but are from when I received the platform the first week they shipped, so they trees have started to heal. Sent...

    Cam cleat on LWCG

    Fully agree. I have the 14" double steps and the way I attach them with the cam strap and set them they bite every bit as good as my C1s, and LW single step sticks. I also wouldn't be modifying any of them to use as a one stick. I don't think anything is better than the EWO for that. Sent from...

    Keep Kevlar-core Line From Fraying

    I've used STAR BRITE Dip-It Whip-It Liquid Rope Whipping on various ropes. Just two dips, then I apply 3/1 clear heat shrink over the end. I most recently used it on Edelrid Swift Protect Pro Dry. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Making Pursik Cord - Question on Length

    I don't know about a formula but I would think 4' would get it done easily. I know the tails I use on 6mm a double fisherman's takes me 18" of cord or so for a 3" tail. I think my loop is about 22"s typically. I always order hitch cord in fairly long lengths just to have it around though as I'm...

    Replacing bridge, what is your favorite?

    Figured I'd provide an update. This is my removable bridge, it has zero knots. The only thing that might change is the hitch cord. I have Sterling 7mm being patterned and strength tested in a sewn eye to eye. Should have the results soon. I do prefer the Sterling as it's more supple and bites...
