Good ideas. I have tried swapping out the cam buckle for an ocb and had mixed results on different bark types. Have never strapped anything to board itself.
Seems to be less fiddle factor with cam buckle. Ended up leaving ocb on my ROS setup.
My platform does not pull away at all from tree as is in the pic. Seriously, I can lean all the way on outer edge, sides or corners and it doesn't budge. It's all about getting that cam tight.
I like the idea of having steps on the other side of tree, but then again with my lower tether placement and shorter bridge I don't think I could get to them anyway. In the end I think it is a style choice. ROS go best with high tether and long bridge. It's awesome and useful to swing all the way around the tree. Feet get a little sore after a few hours.
Platform is the opposite. Low & short. Feet and thus body are very happy well into the hunt, but less mobility if desired or just enjoyed.
Both work great and have pros and cons. So far switching it up mostly succeeds in keeping me interested!
