Great experience with the Raider this year, so I just picked up another one to leave pre-hung in a favorite spot. It allows for longer sits in the saddle because you can adjust your position and rest on the small seat from time to time. Only complaint is the Velcro on the seat is loud... would like to see them switch to something more like the echo seat material.
This is the perfect balance between having a full Yangon and a saddle platform. I wish it had the quick hang strap included for the price. Like some have said the foam on the seat is loud and I am going to have to figure out a solution for that. It is super light weight and can easily be strapped to my pack. Would buy again but it needs a seat improvement and I think a rapid attachment would be nice.
Super light just what I was looking for to run and gun public land! Keep up the good work novix!!!
This stand has been a game changer for me. I like to do long sits and sometimes need to sit down and this has given me that option. It is also very stable in a smaller diameter tree if you only have limited options and need to be in a certain spot. I wear a 13 shoe and hunt in Pac Boots for at least half of my season and I can still maneuver around on the platform. This is now my go to pack in for every hunt.
Amazing quality, lightweight, perfectly sized to fit on front of backpack, and comfortable enough to sit even without a saddle. Good american product with american customer service
