Didn’t ask the cost. All latitude stuff is on sale though for 25% off. Got a set of 3 sticks for 179.99.
Took them home with you kinda sticks?
What's the deal with "the lightest sticks on the planet just got lighter"
Gen 4?
haha negative, that would be too easy. “Shipping to come soon”
Even “lighter on your wallet” at 299.99 is what they’re getting at.
haha negative, that would be too easy. “Shipping to come soon” I was impressed though. They admitted that they essentially pooped the bed with it, but that everything was /is now on track and shipments are starting, and production is non stop. Also, for that are big, made in the good ole USA.
I venture they are going to sell a boatload this weekend at that price.

Those Arsenal sticks. Be real with me here is that stick extending like extending a canopy pole with those crappy push pins? You know what i am getting at

Platforms were impressive, imo, which is just that, the sticks were very much not. Interesting innovation, but I don’t know if they’ll hold up.
Checked out the arsenal stuff today at the show, the platforms are really nice, I would picked one up but DanO got my money for an ultimate one stick so I will be ditching platforms entirely this season.
Arsenal had an aider there I haven't seen anything on yet, it's pretty interesting. Wish I would have got a pic but it was too crowded when I was on that side of the booth and I had to escape
Their stick with the cork and push pin things is built very well, too many moving parts for my taste, but a really cool design overall. The sticks are pretty light and lock together well. The guy I talked to explained what was going on inside of them and those push pins aren't carrying the load, but they definitely make some sound when they engage. It was pretty easy to stop by plugging the holes with your finger and thumb as the pins popped through to soften the snapping sound.
Everything I saw from these guys was built well, solid quality, looking forward to seeing what else they come out with in the future.
Yeah, that thing. My guess is guys who are already comfortable with aiders won't like it, but guys who aren't comfortable with aiders will feel more comfortable with it. Kinda gives you the benefit of an aider with less risk of a kick out. Its not for me, but I like their ingenuity.
So that aider platform thing is your bottom step…… looks like it’s not moveable with it lashed around the tree but an innovative and light way to extend your climb height without something flapping in the wind at the bottom of the tree. That’s cool!Yeah, that thing. My guess is guys who are already comfortable with aiders won't like it, but guys who aren't comfortable with aiders will feel more comfortable with it.

I felt like the cleat was kinda clunky, I was very surprised by that. That's what I liked the most, until I tried it. I also thought that while very cool, the tip part was kinda hard to fold down. I think I just needed to be rougher with it and would have worked smother. Tiny little buttons you gotta squeeze in to let it Pivot. Super light, fantastic finish. Seemed pretty small but I didn't stand on it, they were packed the whole time
- latitudes clear was a clear winner to me, for what that's worth
Oops, the Latitude cleat was much better to meHuh? Latitudes what?

I actually dont know what the material was for sure but pretty sure it was aluminum.Is it plastic with grip tape?
Did you stand on the platforms?
If so, did you find the traction noisy?
Could you turn around on the platform (& your foot size)?
Thanks.
