Hadn’t looked at these until they were mentioned in another thread. Do any of you have these sticks or made several climbs with them? I was wanting to get into 2TC climbing this summer but my time has been busy so far and if it continues to be busy I might just invest in a lighter set of sticks. These look really good and are $50 cheaper than the One sticks for 3 which puts them in the running for lighter stick possibilities.
Currently have Lone Wolf original sticks with modifications to double steps on top and single steps aiders, Hawk full length sticks and Skeletor stick which I use for mobile hunting. Really like the Skeletor but looking at lighter set possibilities which brings me back to my original question.
Any real world feed back is appreciated.
 
They’re still in the pre-order phase and have been delayed. Those and the Latitude sticks are on my radar.
 
I emailed them before they released the email about the delay. I was told no later than early July by one of their customer support Wednesday, then received the email everyone got Friday saying July 22 for sticks. I'd say they have no clue and wouldn't count on them arriving anytime soon.
 
Some people have tried them at shows. I personally have never seen them in person. They look decent but I am not a fan of that cleat they use. I like to lay my stick across my seat and I don’t think they would pack well like that.
 
I had seen these sticks in person at the GAOS show and I was impressed by them. So much that if I decide to pull the trigger on buying a set of lightweight sticks, those are the ones I'm going with.

Just noticed that the Carbon Lites shipment date has slipped to late July.

Which will probably become august… then September
 
Im holding off for next year. I want those and the arsenal sticks to come out with their Gen 2s first.
Why are you waiting for the Gen 2s of the Carbon Lites?

Gen 1 anything tends to have issues once it gets put through the gauntlet of a public release especially hunting items that are rushed to market with very little testing prior to release.
Yep.

I almost ordered a set of tree styx. I put my hands on them at the meet up and liked them.
I'll get by on the beasties for another season. Let you guys run em thru the paces and then consider how bad I want them.

That makes sense. Maybe it's because I bought their RZR Sub2 and it's been outstanding but for some reason I trust Hunt Arsenal to get this right the first time. I didn't have this same confidence with Tree Styx.
