Anyone use the ARC saddle?

Hey everyone! I'm in the market for my first saddle. I'm in Ontario, so with ARC being Canadian it would save me a ton of money (but I want to make a good choice).

Does anyone have experience with the ARC saddle? Anyone knows how it compares to the mantis or kestrel?
 
I don’t know if anyone has bought one.
I’ve got the ladder. It’s very quiet and won’t damage the tree. Do wear a boot heavy enough to protect your foot. I found it hurts my feet in shoes.

I’m not sure if the ARC has loops to hook up a lineman’s belt. I can’t tell from the pictures.

I don’t think anyone here will climb without something to secure them to the tree.

Their video doesn’t show the use of a LB.

If it does, go for it and let us know.

Most of us canucks in here are from Ontario.

I’m from the Belleville area.

Welcome to the site.

Thanks @fawnzy! I'm Southeast of London.

Thanks for the heads up on the lineman belt, I didn't even realize there wasn't one in the video. Glad I made this post. I might give them a call tomorrow and ask some questions.
 
Sounds like a good idea. @Ontariofarmer isn’t far from you. Hit him up when you get a chance. He’s played around with a few saddles.
