Tethrd Skeletor Sticks

[enkriss]

Right. If anyone has lowered the top steps, maybe the could post a picture of how they look when stacked and the foot room.

just look at the bottom steps… it will be the same

No, it will be different. The top will be on top and the bottom will be on the bottom.

Modification question for those that own these sticks:

Would it be possible to lower the top set of folding sticks about 4”? That would allow the steps to be flush with the top of the stick when they are in the folded position, and potentially lower the overall profile for packing/stacking.

(The trade off would be a slightly shorter step to step distance and perhaps different loading characteristics when considering the overall strength profile of the stick: IE - instead of being above the stand-off, your weight would be below the stand-off, which shifts the load from the stand-off to the main post/channel.)

Yes you could do that.

just got mine the other day. Gonna be my go-to sticks when I am not 1-sticking. Looking at them now, seems you could do it, but your toes would potentially bump or be under the standoffs... Unless you plan on drilling another hole for the standoff to move it too

 

[Skurbie]

They specifically said they would send new sticks and not ropes because they have to torque the button to spec.

Wonder how important that torque spec requirement is, for the concern of anyone doing aider mods.

Thats the bolt that holds the standoff. Guaranteed that spec line is BS… they don’t want you to use it with loose standoffs probably

Got mine yesterday. I think I'm gonna like these....taking them out tomorrow for their test run.

I finally emailed Tethrd about mine today. Understand they are busy, but it's been two weeks and still not shipped, and they said they were in stock when I ordered mine in the first few hours. We'll see. Any other early buyers still waiting on theirs??

I finally got my shipment notification yesterday.

Question for the people that have these. I'm assuming if the trees to big you can just add an amsteel daisy chain around the cleat and set the stick that way.

I don't see why that would be a problem.

 

[katiesmom]

That's probably a tree I would not pick to climb. Others might

That would have to be a huge tree for the stock straps not to fit around but yes you could add those.

How big are the stock straps I figured they where 6ft.

They are about 8’-4”… if you cant get that around the tree. Find another tree to climb cuz it’s gunna suck hunting out of that one.

I understand the comments about the giant tree but, if you have ever hunted some places in the Midwest or plains states. You have to realize sometimes there are no trees for a mile and no cover to set up on the ground and you have to use the tree that's available. The issue is swinging that long of a strap or whatever you are using around a giant tree

I've seen some trees that were probably 4' in diameter up to about head level, and then split off to 2 or 3 basketball sized trunks going up, so yeah, I can picture an application for a larger strap.

Reach out to them, Tethrd, and upcharge for longer dyneema.

Man the peeps at Tethrd made it happen, for Christmas, delivering before the Rut in south Louisiana.

The sticks are pretty nice!

 

[enkriss]

By some 7/64” Amsteel and make 20’ ones

 

[hoss77]

What’s the purpose of the silver sharpie?

Just to give the steps a little more visibility, especially in gray light.
