Just got this platform today. I’m very impressed with the workmanship and the stand itself seems very stout! However, This is a result of my first go. It happened with my issued strap that came with the platform. I’m 6’3” and weigh 223. I simply set the platform on to the tree as you would any stand and stepped onto the platform and the original bolt that acts as a Versa Button bent pretty severely. I’m assuming it’s because very little of the bolt is supporting the tension of the straps and/or rope. (I would be interested to know if this is occurring with guys and gals who have had the sticks-If they are suffering the same issue concerning the original bolt). This is how I decided to go in order to fix it. Please let me know your thoughts and your opinions on the fix?
