This is by far the best aider in the market. I love the extra foot room. They pack away simple
But effective. I've used them for one-sticking along with carrying it multiple sticks using this aider to get more height. I look to buy two more and carry 3 sticks with the double step aider on each stick.
This platform is amazing. Extremely solid when secured and rigid with almost no flex. The hasp connection is amazingly simple and practical. I was initially concerned about the hasp connection, and planned on running a cam buckle. Found out quickly that the hasp connection method is actually superior to cam buckles, straps or daisy chains and is super simple to execute with very little practice. When the platform is positioned, the rope can also be secured to the hasp one handed and with gloves on. I also really love how the rope wraps around the platform when folded up and the rope also has a connector on the end to easily secure the rope to itself. Very well thought out and practical piece of equipment. Best platform I’ve used in my 20+ years of saddle hunting.
This is an improvement on other rope tethers on the market. It is more compact, quieter than a Ropeman, and adjustable both ways under tension. Once again, Arsenal beats all the competition!
I recently purchased my MAXX Double Step aider from the eastern outdoor show in Harrisburg, PA. I'm glad I got to see and test as it was one of the aiders i really had my eye on. I have not gotten a lot of time in the field with it but for the short time I've had it and tested it, it has exceeded all my expectations in almost every way. The only almost downside but not really is the size of them for packing away. I haven't found the right way for me to store it with my setup to feel comfortable with yet. Buy with confidence if your looking for an easy to use aider for your setup.
These steps are great they are solid on the tree and still very light. so happy i got them , wish i would have got them sooner and they are very safe .
