Trophyline Hyperlite Series!!!

Link to video showing the flex? The one above is just from the ata show?

If my LW or Novix sticks flex I don't feel it. Same goes for my LWCG single 17" sticks. My LWCG single 28" sticks flex and I don't like it.

LWCG compacts orient the metal like an I-beam to resist flex. They’re also thick for their length.

LW sticks will flex some.

I was pretty excited about the sticks at first but the more thought I give it the less excited I get.

Not a fan of that attachment method. First thing I would do is can that USA they are using and use a daisy chain in a truckers hitch crossing over the front of the stick.

The attachment is really high. Worried about the bottom step stability.

Looks really noisy to stack.

New material… I want to see how it holds up before dumping $450 into them. I know Xpedition had major difficulty getting that material. A hard enough time they cancel an entire years line of bows they had on order.

Only 16” step to step and they were flexing pretty good.

Biggest reason I might be scratching them off the list 3.4” standoff to step. That’s about 1/4” less than my beasts

Like a twizzler. Would need to know more about the mechanical strength properties, stress/strain relationship, to better understand how it would deform. To me though that’s a big nope.

I'll admit, I'm not real smart.

Can you guys feel the flex and it bothers you? Or is it mental?

It’s amazing to see how much treestands flex underfoot in videos, and I’m not talking 1/2” plate. There’s surprising amounts of flex with even many of the most reliable sticks.

I mean, I can’t speak for the engineering here. Just if you go looking, it is kind of surprising to see it.
 
That’s also a new material. They claim it harder or stiffer than aluminum. Magnite is a Magnesium - Aluminum alloy. Magnesium is notoriously brittle. They use to make risers and ladders out of magnesium. There is a reason you don’t see many of them anymore.

I think the stix look cool, stack nice with room for adiers and tie offs. and they are very light. Made in the USA. Price is not to terrible. The flex will never ever be an issue for me. But I will probable wait to see their tree stand first. The .5 with LWCG 17s & 28s works pretty nice.

and it does this


of course someone could always Nancy Kerrigan you at a 3D shoot by putting some of this on your aluminum bow

Where is the mention of a stand? This could be amazing.
 
I am not too interested in the sticks simply because the stand off distance is not large enough for me, however a 2lbs platform that is a full 12 by 12 is something I’m super interested in. And if it bites like the Onyx, I’m completely sold because outside of the lwcg fix, I’ve never seen a platform bite the tree as well as the onyx
