The stand has a recall.

[@mikesabo5151]

That is my next stand thanks for the video PJ

[@underdogoutdoors]

Great demonstration P.J., most comfortable climber ever. I'm a Lone Wolf climber guy, going back to the Summit because LW is out of business, can't find replacement traction belts for LW.

[@jasontremper1734]

XOP is basically the same treestand. The son of the founder of LoneWolf started XOP and used the same designs and everything when the patents ran out i believe. I think their parts are or were interchangeable. Not sure about today but i had both climbers and one time and they were identical

[@davidbogard4826]

Equalizer has a nicer leveling system for years. Summit has a bigger marketing budget I think.

[@billgotskillb4308]

Equalizer is easier. You can use your foot to adjust it

[@jasony724]

It’s 2022, you’ll think they make the unpacking and packing easier? I don’t the my xstand but it packs a lot easier

[@falconovic688]

These were recalled. Hopefully they fix the issue! Apparently the cable can come out when your in the tree! I’ve been a bit concerned about going with a summit stand after this recall.

[@skroll1982]

God I'm glad I read this reply. I was looking at these and considering purchasing. May have to look elsewhere!

[@MDCORPORATION]

Mi interessa,..... anche io stavo per acquistarlo.... ma vedendo il richiamo ho esitato.... posso sapere cosa avete scelto? Grazie @@skroll1982

[@waynestevenson9613]

I love that one! Been hunting from an ole man forever, but may look into that one! PJ you were breathing a little heavy there…😳😆

My camera guy made me go up and down that tree like 460 times.... :)

@@pjreilly3997 😂😆kinda figured that🖖🏼

[@mikemccomas1440]

Kinda tough carrying 26 pounds, plus pack/extra clothes, water, snacks, harness etc. Like the new bows, manufacturers need to start knocking weight off instead of adding it. Summit is a great stand, however hunting public land an 18lb stand max would be ideal. Private land 4-wheeler dudes--no probs.

[@stevew3718]

Hey p.j great review, just curious if summit will put the level technology into their titan or goliath series?

[@pjreilly3997]

I hope so! The Titan is my favorite…..

[@pensnut08]

Summit had a great idea with Explorer SDs that folded down flat... They better get on the ball with things like that... Lightweight and ease of carrying... It seems all they are going on is their name and how comfortable their stands are... I still use my Summits, especially with my rifles... But why bother lugging a 20lb+ treestand when I can use 3 mini sticks (with aiders) and get to 20' no problem?

[@egoutdoors]

Looks like to many moving parts. Not sure how smooth it would be after some time in the weather.

[@fredsalay720]

I'll stay with my 20 year old Summit, and my new Hawk Helium and sticks.

[@J155P]

Thing looks gigantic

[@nxtpymtoffroad]

How much is the price on this?

[@MrMillerjr1979]

i like it but dont seem to have alot of adjustment ...you said you been waiting your whole life well equalizer has been out a long time and a amazing stand to have with 12 inches of adjustment .buckshot owns them now prob the most solid treestand i ever owned ..and cheaper by alittle

[@randymichael8583]

Absolutely I love my buckshot equalizer tree stand !!!

[@garrettstraffon608]

Na that just seems like more to mess with. After 20 years of using mine you know to make it tilt up at the bottom and it will level out. We want lighter. Lighter is what will sell them. But you are right this is the most comfortable stand there is,

[@pjreilly3997]

No doubt, you can get pretty good at figuring out the angle to set the stand at before you climb. But after climbing for 30 years, I can say I have guessed wrong many times, and I either had to climb back down to fix it or I did some things that weren't safe. I wish I had something like this back when I was only using climbers....

[@garrettstraffon608]

@@pjreilly3997 yea I guess your right pj.

[@garrettstraffon608]

@@pjreilly3997 this Lancaster give away is a scam. Just letting you no so people don’t believe they won a brand new bow from Lancaster. There not very smart scammers it’s pretty easy to pick out. But I just wanted to let you no.

[@jasonmcgee2734]

Buckshot centershot by Equalizer already had self leveling stands for about 4 years by now!! summit is behind on that technology. Still a nice stand though

[@jasontremper1734]

The Equalizer has the adjustment ability not the Centershot by Buckshot. Just FYI

[@jasonlarson6932]

The trigger and pin is the same as the hawk warbird climber. Not a fan of them. I have a viper and a hawk. The viper is 100 times better. I also have the original equalizer and it's a great climber. Just hard to get replacement parts for.

[@joelaskey2121]

Hunting is a challenge. It’s like playing chess with Mother Nature, gadgets like this that take the guess work out tarnishes the whole experience imo. Like Pj said in the beginning of the video people can get good at it. Certainly practicing is important

[@joedomyslawski5184]

Sorry, I don’t bash anybodies product but if you guys want a adjustable climber get big shot buckshot’s equalizer stand , I’ve been using it for 10 years and it blows everything away as far as I’m concerned. I would not buy anything else.

[@aaronmorgan9190]

DO NOT USE THIS STAND, a good friend of mine had the cable snap on him at 30 ft. He almost died, and he’s in the hospital and will most likely never walk without a limp again, so for the love of god, send it back to summit

[@kyletoth4319]

This stand is recalled hope your friend is ok

[@user-eo1qq4xz8w]

Sorry to hear. My buddy is paralyzed from the waist down. Fell out of a home made treestand. Seems to me your buddy didn’t have a safety harness on tethered to the tree. Always connect to the tree the moment you step into the climber and never disconnect until you are back to ground level. If he had a harness on and it was tethered to the tree, he would have been suspended once the stand dropped. Then the suspension relief strap needs to deploy until help arrives. I use the Lone Wolf style tree tether as it moves great and snags nothing. It’s basically a lineman rope with a big stitched eyelet and a small stitched eyelet with a prussic knot and carabiner made from mountain climbing rope. I hope your buddy pulls through. Be safe guys. Climb safe. Don’t be foolish. Go home safely after every climb/hunt.

[@rollinhills6256]

Your and idiot and so is your friend. If this is a true story which I doubt it is, he should have had a safety harness on. Absolutely never a reason to be 30’ up in a tree.

[@matthewmcnulty698]

Cool. Video. Not. My. Type of stand I prefer a hang on stand

[@mickyfitzko6024]

That trigger and pin is a cheap way to add alot more to the price and it should come with the summit surround seat!... ill pass for a few years until the price drops to a decent price!.. Its way overpriced in my opinion!

[@leatherdaddy4955]

Who would wanna lug that big thing around...

[@pjreilly3997]

I have hunted from the Summit Titan, which is even bigger, for years. It weighs 43 pounds when I attach my pack on it. I gladly haul that thing anywhere because I know I will be sitting in the lap of luxury all day if I have to. I will do the work needed to be comfortable in the tree......

[@leatherdaddy4955]

@@pjreilly3997 oh ok, to each there own but being super comfy isn't something I value to much. 4 hours max I can deal with being ah little uncomfortable. Weight and outline on my back is more important to me. Maybe during gun season of go to this but in archery season I wouldn't wanna be Bouncing around using this

[@pjreilly3997]

@@leatherdaddy4955 My bad back is actually what pushed me to these stands. I just can't sit still or for more than 4 hours on most stands before my back starts hurting. With these Summits, I can sit all day in total comfort. I got some aftermarket backpack straps for mine and I have hauled it over a mile going one way on a route that includes having to go down (on the way in) and up (on the way out) a 100-foot cliff. With the right straps, it hauls just fine.

[@mikemccomas1440]

PJ come climb some WV mountains with that monstrosity for a season and you'd change your mind.😊
