Saw this a week or so ago. Got it, shouldn’t have to do that….but if you already have one, it might be of interest to you.So you do not see the bend that is in the pictures and videos posted?

I just know mine has been great and the shallower angle is what I prefer the steeper angle I don’t care for.I’m super close to pulling the trigger on a Pursuit Platform. I’m definitely more of a leaner. I’ve seen that my ankles hurt a little when I use my EDP platform even if I slant it down. Would the Pursuit Platform be a good option to help solve this issue?
Between the angle and the little bit of flex it has in it I imagine it will help. I like the shallower angle on mine as wellI’m super close to pulling the trigger on a Pursuit Platform.

This is pretty much my setup this season too.Excited to give the Pursuit a try this season, a few pieces of shock cord helped tame the ocb and two additional steps; tucks next the sticks on the pack View attachment 89342pretty well. Feels good on the tree in the yard but haven’t been 20’ up in the woods yet.
That Huntworth pack is probably my weakness link… it’s a good pack for the money and does ok with lighter loads, but a proper frame is so much better. Kinda regretting passing on all of the discounted Popup 38s. Otherwise this kit feels good; everything including enough rope to rappel down if I had to, but no food or water, is 16.5 lbs.This is pretty much my setup this season too.
I was wondering what pack that was. Is your pursuit a gen 1 or 2? I picked up a gen2 for this season but the gen1 works fine for me too. For public I have a Stryker XL pack with frame but I’m strongly considering using the MG large bird bag system this year. Not really sure yet.That Huntworth pack is probably my weakness link… it’s a good pack for the money and does ok with lighter loads, but a proper frame is so much better.

Love mine! Depending on the tree and the bark, the teeth kind of squeeze into the grooves of the bark and provide additional friction or “purchase.” I love the EWO OCB hook It clamps it nice and solid to the tree. I have to set mine so the buckle is at about 2.5 or 3 o clock on most trees to get it nice and snug. I used mine exclusively all season. I stealth stripped the buckle and hockey taped the platform to keep incidental noise to a minimum. I also have the Gen 2 but haven’t ruined my Gen 1 yet.I finally joined the club.....got a hold of a 2nd generation.
What's the deal with the "teeth" mat? Seems pretty useless to me?
I see a paint job of some sort in the future and definitely loosing the hook ocb. The sewn version ocb much more simple to me
by teeth mat do you mean foam knee/back saver pad? supposed to be a dual purpose piece of gear that keeps the teeth from digging in to your back on the walk in and serves as a knee pad also. never ran one, but thought it looked too small for my knees from the pictures I've seen.I finally joined the club.....got a hold of a 2nd generation.

I also picked up a gen 1 last year. Love it so far, still working on best way to carry in and setup in dark. What is everyone else doing.
