Helium Hammock HSP Small Platform

I have used this platform on my hawk helium stick for a couple hunting seasons now and I absolutely love it puts your stick and platform all it one take up less space and works just as good

I think this platform was intended to be easy to add or remove in the field with pins, however, the holes don't line up right, so I was only able to push one pin all the way through at a time by hand. I had to get a hammer involved to get them both in at the same time, and now they are more-or-less in there permanently, and I have to figure out how to pack it up with my bow without banging up my bow.

I love how lite this is and simple to assemble how ever I did not use quick pins I used a nutc and bolt I didn't care for the rattling noise worth the pins. But other than that it's well made and very strong I'm 300lbs and it holds my weight with ez

You’re probably better off just getting a proper platform.The comments from the other reviews are all spot on:- Poor quality control- Go ahead and get bolts- Drill in for the second holes- Put grip tape on the top- Use some expanding foam in the tubes to avoid ringing a bell in the woods.It is impractically small. Turning around with this thing or adjusting your tether height is an art form best left to ballerinasIf you can weld, you can build a better version. Maybe even if you could just borrow a welder… doesn’t seem like the folks building these have a lot more experience than that.It worked for this season when I wasn’t sure if saddle hunting would be the solution I was looking for. I’ll get a predator platform next season.

Replace the stock push in pins with the same size bolts, and do not use the pins, and also drill 2 more holes and add 2 more bolts, and it's sturdy as heck. Solid as a rock! Also add 3M stair grip tape on top and it's a perfect platform for the Helium's. You can't beat it. Beats standing on the top step while setting up. It still allows you to stack the sticks if you open the top steps of the next stick. Light weight and doesn't move at all with my 4 bolt and stair grip tape install method.

It does what it's supposed to. It wobbles a bit but not a deal breaker. If you replace the pins with nuts and bolts it will take the wobble out. It's a $40 platform that you mount to a $40 stick, so $80 and you have a decent setup. Running mine on a 30" helium. I'm not sure if I want to cut it down for 1 stick or add 3 others and go that route. I'm 5'9 230lbs with a 10 boot size and it feels comfortable to me. I'm not sure how some of these idiots arent reading the description on what you actually are buying but my 2 cents says it's worth it.

I love the idea of this thing, but it honestly just isn't a good product. It rattles, squeaks, click and is slick as all heck making it almost as annoying as it does beneficial. I'm sure if you wrap the top of the helium stick with some felt tape and use bolts instead of pins it would be better. My opinion is the manufacturer should pull this version from the shelf and provide those standard and charge another few bucks.

It works as it should but makes some noise when adjusting footing
