I wish I'd knew about these years ago.

This thing is great. As someone who likes to be mobile, I know first hand the frustrations, noise, and pain of carrying a climber or lock on deep into the woods. Thats all changed. This saddle is beyond comfortable. I would suggest the recliner strap. Its very light weight. You can adjust it in so many ways to get that perfect comfort. I started one sticking for an even lighter setup. Super easy. If you are on the fence or unsure, pull the trigger.
