You haven’t lived until you’ve gone from 25ft up a pine tree to ground level in 0.25 seconds with your boots strapped to the platform of one of those. Lol

Had to be a pucker factor going up and down in that thing, at least they had an optional safety belt!

IM so cheap that I used one up until 2004 right up until I accidentally backed my truck over it in the dark lol

Yes, been there and done that on my Baker. Pretty exciting stuff, really gets the heart going!

There was one of those stands laying in the garage when we moved into our house.

I never took the Baker slide, but know several guys who did!

I don't always hunt in my jeans, but when I do, I also wear a balaclava...

Tip of the cap for referencing the head/neck garment instead of the filo pastry.

Years ago had a hunting buddy that built his own with this design. Last time he used it was on public ground. We heard him shouting for help about 45 min after daylight. When we got to his tree he was sitting about 24 feet up with the bottom portion of his stand at the base of the tree. After a really good laughing session we managed to get him down. Needless to say the other hunters in the area weren't too happy with him. Luckily he didn't get hurt.

You learn real quick to tie a length of paracord between the 2 sections.

There is one of these grown into a tree on a property I hunt, wonder if the hunter took a ride down the tree and just left it…

I had one. They were about the best thing going at the time.

I have an old summit open shot...other than the cables that go around the tree, big design improvement, not much difference. That one may actually be a a little bigger.
