I like the idea of this but it didn't work well on my fat east coast trees. You need tall skinny smooth trees I guess, and someplace theres no sun or ice because the plastic brackets are breaking off now (one year of light use)

All the straps and the climbing holds are flat black. These also don’t mount very well, as the ratchet teeth dig into the tree (preventing you from cranking them super tight) and the holds tend to peel back off the tree towards you as you climb.

This is such a genius concept! My son has recently shown interest in climbing trees and loves using the rock climbing wall on the playground; this innovative product combines both things! These are easy to put up and had good instructions to follow!There are three different shapes/designs of handholds, so not a ton of variety in that regard. I do really appreciate how you can mix things up over time though by either changing the order of the straps on the tree, sliding the rocks along the ratchet straps to different positions, changing which rock holds are on which straps, or changing the placement/order of the straps on the tree. This makes the route infinitely changeable and allows you to vary the difficulty of the climb.I'm not an especially strong person, but even weighing 105lbs I was able to easily ratchet the straps tight enough that the holds could support my weight without budging – I was shocked by how secure these felt when tightened! When I needed to reposition some I was easily able to loosen the ratchet as per the instructions and tighten in a different spot on the tree. The strap is very long and I can't imagine a scenario in which a tree you're putting this on is too big.I really like the black set as it makes it easier to keep these up long-term since it doesn't draw much attention. It is nice how this comes with a drawstring bag to easily store/transport. It's also pretty quick to put on the tree, so it's not a pain to take up/down as needed.My one wish would be for these to come with black bands to hold the excess tail of the strap to keep things tidy.Very happy with these!

Within 6 months of purchasing and less than 3 uses multiple hand/foot grips cracked. Our 2 kids are 10 and 8 and weigh less than 85 pounds.Submitted a request thru their website but have yet to hear back days later.I wouldn’t purchase again, too expensive and clearly not good quality.

We have had these on a couple of trees for several months. I tightened them so they would not move too much when the kids were climbing on them but they broke anyway. They are in the north side of a tree so they shouldn't be weathered from the sun too much. The kids had fun with them before they broke though.

Can't wait to take this to the campsite this summer easy to use if you've used a ratchet setup before otherwise just follow the directions it's easier than it seems. Good way to get the kids outdoors.....you can set up a few in different spots or a bunch in one tree. I have big hands and my grip fits good and comfortably. Little bag to store it in, really thin and flimsy so won't last long if past the first use honestly feels like tissue paper almost. The box is giftable with a nice plastic handle as it is a little heavy
