Wow sign me up. Glad I did not get any climbing stuff for Christmas they will all be outdated soon.
Hey Dewey can you put a stick on a scale and take a picture to kill the skeptics.

Mine are almost a 1/2 lb heavier. They are one of the very early prototypes.

No idea. Hoping before next season at the latest. Last I heard he was still exploring production options and waiting for quotes.

Just finished my Red squirrel climbing aider. It looks good and can't wait to try it.Pictures are nice but video in action is better! When do we get the video. I ask as I have been using the Stepp Ladder as platforms in presets and I think this could be a solution!
He’s probably going to have a hard time finding someone to extrude them. I hope not.

Also, a worthy note: the teee I was climbing on was slightly angled and was not straight up!

Was your foot in the aider and did aider kick out? That can get you puckering a bit. Have to stay very focused on toe to tree. I also keep aider and tether to the left of the stepps - (because I put my left foot into the aider) so its not sliding around on the stepps. Good reminder post. For me the risk I have is when I loosen LB to make the step onto the WE stepp.Fair warning to anyone using the red squirrel aider. Tonight I was climbing up just like practiced in my back yard and when I was getting up on my 3rd stepp, my foot that was in the step slipped off the tree and had I not used all the proper climbing and safety equipment I would have busted it! I will have a good bruise on my side, but luckily nothing more.
Be careful out there and be sure you're safe at all times!

Glad you are ok . Anytime we leave the ground we have to be careful because things can happen fast. That's why I try to take my time while climbing. I know that we all get in a hurry it is better to be safe than sorry. Good point about the tree leaning.Fair warning to anyone using the red squirrel aider.

I didn't mean to say that I was just saying that things happen fast and anytime we leave the ground we have be very careful. I know sometimes I have tell myself to slow down.I don't feel like I was in the least bit of a rush. But, my focus wasn't necessarily on keeping my toe on the tree and before I knew it, it was behind the tree. haha.
