Came here looking for info on the tethrd one stick. Great video and I like that you are very non-biased to one brand or the other. looking forward to the one stick method video, that looks like a great stick. Subbed
This guy has so much more money than me haha. So grateful tho, because now I can narrow down my purchase for some new sticks
Love my mini Beast sticks. That new Catalyst Outdoors stick looks sick. Can't wait to see the specs on that.
Pumped to try the ONE sticks! Also, I need to see this solo stick climbing method! Might have to give that a shot this year.
We’ll be dropping a video soon that dives deeper into the ONE sticks! We may also have a video in the works for the solo stick method. More to come!
@@HuntUrban what are your thoughts on the novix 32 inch double step sticks? Have you ever used them? I'm thinking about getting them
Appreciate the review. Hunting 200 days a year gives your opinions credibility.
Awesome video!
Great video Taylor! Sweet hat!
Great video!
I’m stoked to hear about this single stick method. I’ve been using single steps and man is is getting old. Lol.
Thanks for the great review! It helped a lot choosing my first set of sticks. I'm curious what diameter of amsteel you choose to replace the stock strap on the sticks with. Thanks
Great JOB! thx
Lookin onward to seeing your one stick method
Coming soon!
Great video
Looking forward to your one-stick video. Curious: how often do you opt for the one-stick method and for what applications/scenarios?
Great question. I definitely switch back and forth between the two methods of just taking climbing sticks and taking my one stick. The more I use the one stick climbing method, the more I feel like it's a great swiss army knife for climbing. Even on trees with a ton of branches, as long as I have a linemans belt, I'm good to go to where I can maneuver around them. So, I guess the answer to your question is evolving.. I used to take the one stick only when I knew what tree I was going to, but now I feel more comfortable taking it everywhere I go. Only exception is when I have a camera guy coming with me who needs the sticks behind me.
I am looking to start the tree saddle journey and I want to purchase what works best. My build is very similar and I like the tethrd phantom XL. Wanted to climb with the tethrd sticks but they are sold out with no lead time. What would be your second pick to get in the woods the first of October?
Do you have a video on rappelling down & the equipment needed?!?
I went with the hawk 30in and hsp platform and so far I'm happy
Cant wait to get my timber ninja aluminums!
You need to try an EWO stick. The feather stick is literally one of if not the best stick on the market.
Heard some folks complain about the pins on the One Sticks breaking. That brings me to a question, what are those orange pieces you have around your stacking pins?
good video man, going to check on one stick video.... kinda shocked me when you said your a one stick guy. Good production on video as well
Appreciate it! I'm always shifting methods, definitely in a constant state of not settling.
Novix Minis with doublestep tops, amsteel chains, and dual aiders, I am pleased with that setup. One of the lightest around, and inexpensive. That Tie Fighter one stick looks intersting, where will it be sold? Thanks for this video.
East outdoors or something like that sells it. If you google doublestep it should bring it up .
Nice video. What's the stealth tape type you're using?
Gotta see the vid of the one stick! Never heard of it before!
People have been one sticking for years .
DIY sportsman has a video of the one stick method you can look it
Latitude just made a light stick that I’ve been using. Super light and strong and stack easily.
You mentioned Carl Suth and the single stick you displayed. Does Carl sell these? How do I contact him? Thank you in advance...
Love my beast sticks.
They're awesome, for sure! Have you swapped the bolts out to grade 8?
What do you use for the silver markings?
I looked through all of the responses below. Where cam I find the Ti Fighter for sale
No review for SHIKAR sticks from OOAL?? They stack up to any of the ones you mentioned.
Would love to hear your thoughts on steps, such as the wild edge ones.
Sketchy. Finicky. IMO
I tried to love the wild edge steps. They are great to pack, transport and climb. They SUCK at attaching to the tree. Despite all the promo videos showing how easy they are to attach, they take forever to attach and never feel secure.
Smokin! thx
I have a few questions about the C.K. “The Legend” Tie Fighter stick. What does it weigh, will it be available to the public at some point and if so when?? Thanks and great video!!
He's definitely a legend!! I'm in the process of talking about how to take the One stick and use it as a one stick climbing method. It's actually better than the tie fighter. Stay tuned!
Will they be selling the one-stick tie-fighter?
Do you have links to all the stics
At min 14:11 u said u hang ur sticks from a male female clip can you share information about it or were can I buy them
Just started hunting in Dec and grabbed the beast sticks. Seemed like the most durable and stable for the money. After climbing as a noob in the cold, dark and wet I'm pretty happy with them. Def want to replace buckles with ropes though. Where do you get your amsteel ropes?
hawk ranger imo 20 feet up 3 sticks
My stuff once it's up it stays there all yr so weight isn't issue just started using sticks instead of screw in steps
Just ordered my one sticks set last night
Nice! You're going to love them. Let me know your thoughts and feedback! Definitely check out the One stick review video I just dropped for how I modified them!
@@HuntUrban I just did last night great review and I’m going to by the strips to put on them I’ll give u some feed back once I get them in and used them for a bit thanks for the reply
Can't get the Tethrd1 sticks. Impossible to find, never in stock. I think they stopped making them temporarily because that "chemical bond" otherwise known as glue, was failing and dudes were getting hurt. Have seen picks of steps separating from the post online... They added that roll pin to address this, but no roll pin is considered weight bearing or load rated... meaning it's still an unsafe stick. Ti and aluminum, being different materials, will expand and contract at different rates in temp changes.... that will stress that "chemical bond" and cause it to fail. Their step to stick attachment method needs to be redesigned..
Do you have a 75% off code so i can afford to buy a set of Tethrd ONE Stick's?
Love your content, but you title indicates “every climbing stick you need to know about”.
No Shikar, or LWCG options mentioned?
3 questions about the Tethrd sticks.
1) what size stealth strip did you use to wrap them ?
2) I notice you have orange stacking pegs and the released ones come black, is that a prototype? Or a replacement?
3) Being that you’re associated with the company maybe you can find out for certain : when the stacking pegs break (because they for sure are going to knowing my self) will Tethrd offer replacement stacking pegs?
I’ve seen reviews where they were in fact broken during use and shipping. Having just ordered them the second they dropped publicly it is a big concern because it is a big selling point. I was duped by XOP with their stick locking and when the aluminum started sheering and they lost the ability to stack I wanted to throw my self out of the tree lol now they are annoyingly bulky sticks that only 2/4 have the ability to lock together and when I’m walking in the woods and they come loose hanging off my predator pack I’m ready to loose my $hit. Because I’m forced to stop walking, take off the pack, and re-tighten the predator pack straps. It cost time and probably some success in the form of stealthiness when they clank on my back.
Having spent the money in the one stick it would be a shame to have this happen all over again.
Thanks for watching! I wanted to make sure to address all your points, so see answers below:
1.) I used the "standard" stealth strip roll. Works great.
2.) I was playing around with my 3D printer and testing some ideas when I made the pegs in this video.
3.) I don't think the stacking pegs will break easily - I have a seriously high number of climbs, stacks, smacks, etc on the sticks and didn't ever have any issue with them breaking. However, I know that Tethrd will, 100%, make a point to exceed customer service and stand behind their product. I'm positive if you have an issue, they'll stop at nothing to make it right.
I don't think you have any concern with the ONE sticks like you had with the XOP's... I had a buddy have the same issue with the XOP's and I know how annoying it was. He also had his top step break on him when he was standing on it... talk about scary!
I use the Hawk Helium 20” sticks it has been a great stick but on the lady lip you might need to cut it just a little. If you cut it to much it will not suction. I cut them to much and had to take little bungee chords around them. Overall a great starter stick.
Foot room is a none issue? That is your opinion.
That last one for one sticking look pretty cool.
Definitely my opinion, but I have a size 12 shoe, so I figure if it's good for me, most people should be okay with it. The key to climbing, in my opinion, is getting your foot sideways to maximize surface area.
is the tie fighter available yet google doesn't come up with any results for that stick
I sure hope it does. Another video of Carl using it shows a TETHRD decal on the stick. He says it’s a prototype in the video. Soooooo, hoping that means it will come out soon. I know they made a pouch for the 40ft tether rope that is coming on July 1. Maybe the TIE will be coming soon too. 🤷🏼♂️
No.... you can’t even pre order.
I wish the Timber Ninjas had aluminum steps. Ive seen that plastic move way to much for the cost.
What was the total weight of a ONE stick with stealth strips and foam? Thanks,
Mines right at 20oz same way his are done
Thanks
What aider are you using for your tethrd sticks?
Benjamin Murray i have the same question i have a versa aider but doesnt look recomended
I've been using a regular 5-step aider. I take a small climbing runner and girth hitch it to the aider, then to the stick tubing
Have you tried the wild edge stepps? I was curious what your thoughts on them are.
They suck. Only climbing stick I've ever fully given up on.
I'm surprised after all this time they never released the Thai fighter one stick.
Which aider are you using with the ONE stick?
Good question. I would like to know as well
@@chrisneedham100 im running amsteel on mine it works great an there's few different ways u can set em up
@@jeff_8789 do you have a video on that or can you do one? I bought a 3 pack but I'm afraid an aider might damage the product as I've seen 2 review videos that said happened to them. Thanks
How can I get a ti-fighter and roll pouch...?
I'm still talking to a therapist about it... Some bridges can't be un-crossed!
@@HuntUrban I've seen these items since the G2Outdoors one stick video. Literally the video that convinced me to one stick. Now I am just waiting for Tethrd to actually make these available some how...
@@HuntUrban so the Thai fighter sticks aren't available yet?
Not sure why people cut down the 3 step hawk sticks when they sell the 20 two step sticks.
You said pros AND cons of the one sticks. Didn’t hear any cons. Obviously noise. What about the stand-off spacing and the fiddle factor of stacking them. Did they address it on the final product?
I don't think there's any issue with the stand-off spacing. For me, when I climb, I like to have my feet out at a 45* angle - with these sticks the standoff and step make a giant platform, and a great "landing area" so to speak for my foot
Timber ninjas carbon are $190 EACH??
big dudes climb trees too
The stats are way too close on the tethyrd sticks
I used to climb trees for free when I was a kid lol
He says the tehtrd sticknwill just wear and tear for years , they are have real issues with the glue on them , they glue the steps on the sticks and that glue is failing on many sticks , but he didn' mention that . Maybe he didn't know or maybe he let it out because they give him free shit .
Sorry but any review that doesn't include Lone Wolf Custom is incomplete.
$400 dollar for beast sticks & replaced bolts & attachment method damn!
these company's are outta their damn minds
Send me your xtras! 😉
You're currently one sticking?? You're affiliated with Tethrd and got your "ONE" sticks for free?? Send your Tethrd one sticks to me..I'll take em 😂😂😂 I'm laughing but I'm as serious as the brain surgery I just had 👊
Each have uses! I love tinkering with gear and trying new things, complacency kills.
8:38 Nope. not for me boys. i like to stand on my climbing sticks not have them in my ass hanging from a harness.
Just toss that duct tape on the ground. Your done with it.
240 lbs. And 200 days of hunting dont add up big boy.
