Anybody install a cam cleat on their platform? Update-Installed.

The purpose of the nite ize is to use it as a handle to reach down and grab the platform?

Is the purpose of the bungee to reach down and easily uncam it?
The vertical gear tie does function as a pull up handle. The (bungie) is a soft shackle type of connect that is not elastic. Its purpose is to keep the platform from opening completely. This helps climbing by keeping it at a better angle to climb up. It also saves time by not having to hinge the platform up and down as much/far.
 
How is climbing with the mission in general, since its one of the bigger platforms?
Good. Larger platform means better hand holds for stability when climbing. Larger also means more to step over/around but more to step up on to. There are always trade offs. I believe you could use any platform you might have to did this.
 
I find i have to use a short bridge when climbing with the mission. Its big enough and I move it up enough that I need to set it to one side more than say a stick.
