Just wondering if anyone has experience with these climbing sticks? They're advertised as being 2.5 lbs per stick, have two steps on each side and are same length as lone wolfs longer sticks. 32 in i believe. I've seen them for sale a lot cheaper than lone wolf sticks in the three packs. They look sweet but I've never used any of the light weight sticks. I'm just wondering if the lone wolfs or these would be best? Also I'm on the bigger side in terms of weight and height so do you guys think i would have any trouble hanging and climbing with these sticks? I'm 6'2" and 235 lbs.
I've got a set I like a lot and I'm 6'2" 215lbs I'd like the LW better if they had steps on both sides or Muddys if they had three steps. I have a single I may sell you if you buy three and want another. I also wrapped mine in Camo tape the make them quiet when their stacked.
I considered the leverage but went with the LW...I think I had a gift card that helped me decide. I have no complaints with the LWs, though more expensive list than leverage. Seems like there was another factor-stacking or carrying that I liked the LWs a bit more. Though, I can understand the desire to have both feet at the same level, especially when standing on the top step, readying the next step or a stand. I also considered the Muddy sticks, but liked the longer stick length. Though I really thought the muddy cleat design made their product 'easier to use'. Fwiw- I'm shorter and only 205. But my boys who are 6'+ (6'5" 6'2" and ~6') have had little problem in mastering the LWs. -Bill
Thanks for the input! I think i would like the lw sticks but im thinkin those single steps would be an inconvenience. Atleast til i got fluent with them. But the leverage has more pluses i think and being a little more comfy when hanging the stand means a lot..afflicted what would you have to have for that single stick?
I'm not using it so give me half plus shipping. I forget what they retail for. I just know when your first getting the hang of hanging hang on???? having all you weight on one foot at one height was a pain. Remind me and ill send you a photo of how I have the wrapped as well. Pm me.
