I decided to go with the Hawk Helium’s currently full length with a 1 step attached aider. I also went with an Amsteel daisy chain to attach them, instead of the provided strap. Loving this set up so far. I’m not super nimble and can easily get to 18’ at my feet with this setup. Still trying to figure how/where to attach my platform while climbing, but the climbing part is down for sure! I’m ready for the woods!FA84B615-6CA8-4E3F-A3CA-E35E9AE634F2.jpeg

what platform and saddle are you using? I have a mantis and predator. I took n S-biner and used the camo vet wrap to silence it. Stuck it through the middle webbing loop on the mantis in the rear.Very easy to reach back and clip/unclip the predator before and after the climb. I have 2 clips(one on each hip) for my sticks. I attach first stick at ground level. Paracord loop on top of each stick. clip in a stick on each hip. Predator on the back in the middle. This setup works good for me. I will say that you have to tighten your waist strap pretty tight so that the weight of the platform doesnt sag you saddle down but its not that big of a deal. I loosen it a little once im at hunting height.
 
Using 3 to get there. I’m 5’ 8” and not stretching hard to get that. I think if I try really hard I can get to 20, but I won’t like that climb down in the dark lol.
Stick some of those reflective round stickers on the steps. Or some reflective Paracord. Did that on a few ladder stands.
