Saddle platforms

Great information! Thanks for sharing. Can you post your attachment system? What made for the change in that regard? I guess I’d have to consider the elite as I had almost written it off.

I use one of these -

1/8 Full Bury Hang® Free Attachment System (H.F.A.S.)

The premiere Climbing Stick Attachment Method on the market. Works on anything with a Versa Button. 1/8 Full Bury H.F.A.S.- 320 lb Working Load. USA Made.

And I add an additional one of these -

Olive Green H.F.A.S. Prusik/Spliced Tender Only

Replace your current H.F.A.S. Prusik, or use a Main Line you already own and add a Prusik on to convert your Main Line to an H.F.A.S. in only a few minutes

Then its explained how to use it in this video - fast forward to about the 9:30 mark -

My main reason for switching is that its what I used on the EDP and also my hang on stands. For the elite, I use the 1/8 version instead of thr 3/16 due to limited room behind the cleat for two 3/16 ropes to fit and get tight.

The attachment method that it comes with is also rock solid if done correctly, but it feel like the hfas pro just gets tighter. Im not a fan of cam straps.

How does the carbon grab the tree vs the aluminum options?

I’ve never had an issue with it grabbing the tree just as good as the aluminum, I have both types, just make sure you give both models a good “set” with the platform up before you fold it down.
