Really worth the money esay set up and does move from the tree does have a little flix but you hardly notice it and man does it dig into the tree will highly recommend it.
I'm 6' 2'' 255 lb size 12 boot and feel very comfortable on this platform. It packs down extremely flat with a weight to square inch ratio that is pretty much unmatched.
I was a little skeptical about a China manufactured platform but this thing is rock solid with incredible attention to detail and quality. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a lightweight option but still want the comfort of an XL platform.
One thing I do recommend is getting comfortable with the mounting system at the base of the tree a few times before trying in 20' up. The "toe cam" method of mounting works well but it took some trial and error to figure out how to mount it without creating too much slop between the tree and platform. Once you get it figured out the platform digs in extremely well.
I originally looked into this platform because it is light weight and sleek. I bow hunt roughly 6 months out of the year. I can clip this platform onto my bag or my saddle and I don’t have to worry about extra weight when I’m dragging a deer out of the woods at the end of the day. The platform also folds up nicely and the clip allows me to hang it on anything. I’m 6’3”, 260lbs and the platform supports me very well. I am able to place the platform properly and efficiently while climbing, it allows for a comfortable all day sit.
Good grief, this is a quality product!
It performs as advertised:
-Locks to the tree better than any of my other platforms
-Does not kick out with side pressure
-Easy/quick tree attachment
-Easy toe-cam
-Minor flexing
-Super lightweight
-Belt clip is a definite plus for carry
-Craftsmanship is phenomenal
I usually modify every piece of hunting gear I purchase, but I think I’ll leave this one as is.
This company is engineering their way to the top of the market. Very thoughtful design and function.
Just purchased their Cloud RLX Saddle as well.
