    Has anyone tried the"Any Tree Outdoors “Tree Straps” Climbing System"?

    Primal steps and knaider- swaider

    I bought 5 Primal steps and changed out the ratchet straps for Wild Edge rope. It took a little time to get the knot and initial rope tension right. I first tried the modified Cain method and it seems doable. I like the idea of being tethered to the tree. The issue I had was when I attached...
