Catalyst stick

Mine do lose the perfect stacking with the speed buttons. But I personally didn't want them for the stacking. I just wanted a super beefed up double stick that won't bend. These seem to be the strongest beefiest sticks I've ever used

Beast sticks stack inline but have all kinds of side to side play

This might fix the side to side play, I know that was the case with mine, the bolt was just a bit too long.

Stacking issue with my Beast Climbing Sticks - Solved

Not sure if anyone else was having this issue, but when I stacked my Beast Sticks on top of each other there was a lot of side to side movement, upon inspection I found that the bolts were riding on top of the stick below it, not allowing it to sit flat. I fixed it by grinding about a thread...

Yeah, I grinned my bolts down and it still had play. The inside of the standoffs are just barely sitting on the edges of the step. It still had play in it. Just not as much.

the new batches kinda fixed that but they still wobble a bit. I made holder with aluminum rod, shrink tubing and misc components I had lying a round.

I am not sure if I am supposed to post these or not but they are on point. I was afraid of flex but I think my beast sticks have more.

The addict in me wants to order titanium hardware...lol
 
I really like mine, one thing I would recommend is put some type of coating over the face of the bolts. Moisture or rain will cause surface rust. I think I’m gonna take a little bit of superglue and just lightly dab it on the face of the bolt that goes through the versa button and the step just to protect them from rust.
