Cool and definitely comfortable but it’s just a copy of the guidos web

Well I hope others see this response (I doubt it), but you should be tying a knot on the tail end as well, just saying.

seems like a lot to deal with, and heavy why not a climber. but I'm watching these videos to learn about saddle hunting lol

panther platform & JX3 awesome combo...platform sits where you pack everything else. I hang my normal walmart backpack on the front shoulder strap loops using the carabiners for tether/linesman. not so much weight on the back.

Been rock climbing for 15 years and saddle hunting for 8. The twist in that knot has got to go! They are literally deadly. Those twists make it to where that rope has half the fall rating. You take a spill, you put triple.your body weight on those ropes and knots. They will snap and you will fall.

Very very nice set up.

Awesome video and tutorial. You should be a JX3 representative or spokesman for John. You have such knowledge of this system. I have one and love it. But you have given me much more needed information. Thanks. The Lord bless you my friend.

Very good suggestion.I have a JX3. Thanks

How are you still liking the JX3. I love mine but man its heavy. Just ordered a phantom for the hot days.

About the scaffold knot, I have tried to tie it incorrectly. And I still can't figure out how that is possible. If you use the tag end to do your wraps and feed the tag and through the wraps, it seems impossible to tie it incorrectly. Am I incorrect about this?

Well, it's the end of 2024 and I paid $238.72 for 3 sticks and 2 Amsteel aiders shipped. Thank you Latitude for this great black Friday deal. I will put some hockey tape on these to quiet them, hold them together with a silicone cable tie and strap them to my backpack with my saddle stand. Im looking forward to putting these to work in 2025.

I appreciate your content. For this knot, I would leave a longer tag end in order to tie a figure 8 or overhand knot as a stopper knot. If the main knot slips the stopper will back up to the main and stop it from coming out. This does not change the fact you need to tie the scaffold knot correctly, it is another level of safety. Hunting is fun, Going home to family is Funner!!

My only issue with tge saddle, is it doesnt come with any carabiners, even when ordering the tether and lineman rope, they only came with one carabiner. the stuff is pricey, but I'm excited to use the saddle.

Thanks ! What a difference. Awesome....

My god bud

Will these work if you put stealth strips on?

how do you put on your heavy clothes up in the tree?

It would have been good to see you carry a stick up while wearing the JX3 hybrid saddle. Just throwing it over the shoulder with the saddle on your back isn't as simple as it sounds due to the shape of the pack frame.

They should use a different material and it would be awesome like carbon fiber super strong and add aluminum teeth

Great job explaining this saddle. I bought one and became a little frustrated, but your video is the best i have seen yet keep it coming.Thanks

always tie a safety knot to finish off any load bearing knot so i would go 24 inches to give room for a simple overhand knot safety knot on the tag end.

You might find some inspiration in watching lineman or arborists climbing trees and polls, your feet should be driving you up while your hands are more of a progress capture. As long as the feet slip it’d be hard to use this for anything more than an arm workout

I have the Beast sticks but want to use this aider on the Tethrd One sticks. My concern is using this aider on the Tethrd One sticks safely. Any tips you can suggest? Or should I stick with the Beast sticks? I'm new to all of this.

My headrest came with a bungee cord. It sux. I guess I need to upgrade mine to the new style.

How high can you get with 3 sticks and a 2 step aider? Why aren't these available in a 4 stick set?

Nice video - much better than several others that I have seen!!

I bought one using your discount code. Appreciate the video.

Guiedo’s Webb!

Well I wasn’t interested, but now I’m like, im looking for anything that keeps the pressure off my legs all day

Do they make the aiders any more? Can’t find them. Please drop a link

$150 is wild

Another gadget that’s not needed! The amsteel crisscrossed around all the sticks is more than enough!

That backpack is nice but not worth $350

Best video on RUclips covering this hybrid. You sold them one more

Get 3 step aids from them as well and now they are 34" each!

I made a couple of these for almost nothing. I used small plastic buckles instead of the 'fancy' titanium quick release but it does the same thing. Mine are not braided and as 'OEM' looking as these but the deer don't seem to mind. LOL Still a great design and very useful.

I had a 4 step made. It’s great and I’m on my second year with it. Highly recommend.

Thank you for the really informative video. Do you leave the backpack hooked to the backside of the JX3 when you ascend or do you pull it up with a rope? I would be worried that if I try to take off the backpack by reaching behind me it might fall off to the ground. Thanks!

How do you retrieve your rappel rope?

Ok, great but what is it

I’m 6’2” 280lbs and these sticks are great. Foot room is a little tight but not uncomfortable. I would recommend just for the price alone. Super light and bite the tree good.

I just used it for the first time tonight... I was going to DIY it, but I figured after all the trial and error, I would just wish I had bought it. I got it on sale, so why not. I didn't even notice I was using it this afternoon. It didn't get in the way or anything. I DID notice when I removed it to climb down, how my saddle compressed/squeezed onto my hips.. This thing WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!

Very helpful, thank you for posting, worked perfectly. Good luck this season.

Great demonstration. This really helped a lot. Keep the videos coming.

Just returned to this video after a full season of not using my MADROCK. Great to have that extra confidence; thank you PPO for concise review of just what I needed👍

This truly is the best How To video! I bought an Amsteel Triad Bridge that arrives tomorrow and was clueless on exactly how I would need to install it. This was so descriptive and showed every step so precisely I feel very confident I can replicate while watching the video and installing my new bridge tomorrow! 😁 Thank you!!! I really like that style of bridge better as well!! The saddle kit I bought gave me a lineman, tether, and a 3rd rope to use as the “bridge” which to be any sort of comfortable I would have to cut down and melt the end off to shorten I don’t like the idea of that and would rather just save it to use if I need to replace my tether or lineman. So thank you thank you!!

Great job, no one addressed this …. I agree with the length. Absolutely no need for 40 feet, 30 “net” is just right for me.

What about removing the tree fork until you get to the spot you're going to be and then putting it back in place?

Those vids without intros... the ones that cut the music and b.s. Those are great
