I have been using a rock harness for the past 1.5 years and after hauling a stand 2 miles into public, I am jumping on the band wagon. Ordered a Sitdrag to do an ultralight/cheap saddle to work with my rock harness.
My biggest question is this... Is a platform really needed or can you get by with a double step on the top climbing stick to spread your weight out with? Some of the small aluminum platforms are crazy expensive! I imagine I can alternate between straddling the tree and extending my legs against the double step. Thanks in advance!
