I picked up a set of XOP Double Step Sticks this weekend. The plan is to Stealth Strip them, and I am considering EWO 16" Cable Aiders for the middle steps and possibly an UltimAider for the bottom step. Any thoughts on mods for these sticks?
 
Anyone put cable aiders on these sticks? They have the counter sunk bolt so I think a cable aider may have to go on the back of the stick.
 
I just ordered some and got them in the mail yesterday. I wasn't concerned about weight but just wanted something more compact than my full length Hawk Helium sticks. These ought to fit the bill. I just ordered a Versa Aider that I plan to use this year. Just looking at the stick design, you may be better off with an Amsteel aider running through the end/around the bottom steps vs a cable aider.
 
Those xop are a stout stick. Well built and robust
Lol. That means heavy.

I thought about the Novice sticks, or the Skeletors if I ever found them in stock, but the extra $50-100 isn't worth shaving a couple of pounds. At least to me it isn't.
