Re: Summit Titan SD Climbing Tree Stand:
Do you put the "T" buckle strap around the top half of the climber? The strap should stop it form doing that but the Stabilizer straps are much better.ger34 wrote:Oh I hear that!!vortex wrote:I have a Summit Goliath, and if the Titan is anything like mine you will love it. Cons: falling asleep!!
Love my summit Viper however common sense is in play here...1 mistake I made was climbing 25' up a Poplar/Aspen tree in -20C weather.... I was warm.. I was dry and I was comfortable....just sitting up there enjoying the peace and tranquility... that is until my seat portion decided to drop 3/4".... I guess the teeth on the stand don't dig into a frozen Poplar well.... so I dropped 3/4"....which when you are totally relaxed and comfortable and up 25' feels like you dropped 15'..... now I'm sweating... my pants are full and I'm all tensed up.... time to go home
Moral?
make sure the tree you climb is soft enough for the teeth to dig into....I'm 215lbs and I thought I had set those teeth in well.... nope

Honestly Bob... I don't have a clue what you are referring to so likely I didn't have it in place! lol

All I can think of is there is a piece of light rope attaching bottom frame to top frame... but it's never tight enough....
you can PM me to explain the "T" strap more if you like
Thanks!!

Re: Summit Titan SD Climbing Tree Stand:
I saw some comments re: cable wrapping and rusted cables. Try this... go to your local marine shop and buy some shrink wrap, used for marine electrical application.
lightly lube the cable, apply the shrink wrap and them heat it up to shrink it.
Worked like a charm for me.
