User questions & answers

Question:	Will this stand work properly on a lightpole? What is the minimum diameter of tree or pole it will climb? Thanks, Jim
Answer:	Jim, In my opinion it will work. I also found some specs for the stand which says minimum tree diameter is 8” and max is 20”.
Question:	Does it have a bar for steadying a rifle
Answer:	If you are of average build, you can lower the seat height and use the top bar/side bars to build a arm/stand triangle for good accuracy. Obviously, you’re not going to win the 1000 yd trophy out of it, but for the average 100 yard whitetail hunting shot you should be good to go if you are a moderately competent shooter. Of course all bets are off when the fever kicks in!
Question:	Would you recommend this for bow hunting
Answer:	The summit viper is perfect for bow hunting. That's what I use mine for. Very comfortable and safe. Always wear a harness and you are good to go.
Question:	Is this stand good for standing up to shoot a bow
Answer:	Yes, that all i use mine for is bow hunting. Its a really good climbing stand.

Summit Viper SD Climbing Treestand

The Viper SD is comfort engineered to keep you concealed, quiet, comfortable, and safe. The full perimeter frame allows the Viper SD to be a sit-down/stand-up climber, which makes it an easy climbing treestand. The suspended foam padded seat provides all day comfort, yet remains quiet and easy to move out of the way. Weighing in at just 20 pounds., the Viper SD is engineered to be lightweight and easily portable. It is no wonder why the Viper SD is our most popular model.

This is Where We Stand

What does it mean to climb? It means never settling. It means always pushing toward the next highest point. Because good will never be good enough if better still exists. It means knowing what it takes to reach the top of your game, and then trusting each step to get there. And when those steps lead you higher - to a new point of view - you will know that you have arrived. At the Summit.

This is the place you’ve chosen to make your stand – and we will stop at nothing to protect your position.

That means creating products that are quiet and lightweight. You might trek miles in the dark, taking every possible precaution along the way to remain undetected. And we will maintain your cover. It means safety. The true weight our products must carry is not just yours – it’s everything and everyone you care about. We will shoulder the load. It means comfort. When your target enters striking distance, the last thing on your mind should be your treestand or harness. We will help you take the shot without hesitation. Rising to these standards isn’t easy. But you won’t stand for anything less. There is a place where victory comes into focus and excuses fall to the wayside. That place is a Summit.

User questions & answers

Question:	How big is the seat
Answer:	Seat Frame is 19.75 inside width
Question:	If i'm only hiking this in less than 100 yards, is the weight advantage of the aluminum version worth the extra $100 compared to this version? Thanks
Answer:	Definitely not worth the extra $100, I have no problem carrying this, my bow, and all my gear in 500yds.
Question:	What is the max tree circumference this stand will work on
Answer:	Your arms length so you can still secure the safety strap around the tree when you get up in the tree
Question:	What’s the difference between this stand and the Viper SD
Answer:	Not sure of too many differences other than weight. SD is lighter. Always go lighter. I regret not spending the extra $$.

User questions & answers

Question:	will it fit on big trees
Answer:	I received mine and looks like it would fit up to maybe a 20" tree with wiggle room for climbing.
Question:	Could this be set up to stay in a tree all season? Is it built to hang outdoors through weather
Answer:	The stand can stay up year round. I would recommend taking the padded back and seat off to store off-season. Prior to hunting, I would thoroughly inspect the cables and D rings. Safety first!
Question:	I can't figure out how to put the harness this thing comes with on I lost my directions any guidance
Answer:	To be honest I threw that harness in trash and purchased a different one. The one that comes with the stand seemed cheap and there was no possible way I could figure it out in the dark
Question:	can you sit facing the tree
Answer:	Why on earth would you do that? Normally when people hunt they like to face the deer not the tree.Hope this will help you out.

Summit Goliath SD

The Summit Goliath SD is the original big man stand, and since its introduction it has been a favorite among hunters. The Summit Goliath SD shares the same comfort engineered design as the Viper SD, but the wider top gives a little more room to the larger framed hunters. More room does not mean extra weight, at 21 pounds, the Summit Goliath SD still offers ultimate portability.

User questions & answers

Question:	On the the platform theres little spikes that diginto tree but on top section spikes face down,is this stand built wrong
Answer:	I am not sure what yours looks like, but mine has a set of serrations on the top section and the bottom section. Bottom has more serrations than the top. Both sets bite into the tree and mine works great. This stand is really comfortable and very secure while in the tree in my experience.
Question:	Where are the cables
Answer:	Did yours not come with the cables
Question:	Can you turn the seat around on this stand and face the tree
Answer:	Yes, you can, which I believe is the reason they have 180 in the name. However, I find that the standard position with my back against the tree is more supported and comfortable. Depending on how you position the seat height in face the tree position, the sit bar is where most of your back support comes from and in a long sit, gets painful. Climbing with the seat in the 180 is moderately easier though, as you sit in the seat rather than on the bar. As an earlier response suggested, at 6'4" the stirrups feel like a reach when sitting on the bar, but it is manageable.
Question:	How much weight the stand
Answer:	The stand is 26 lbs with a maximum weight rating of 350 lbs.

User questions & answers

Question:	What are the “pack” options when choosing size? Is this multiple stand options
Answer:	Im not sure what you mean by option size due to the fact that a different size is a diffrent brand i will tell you ive hunted with the model in question for 3 years now im 5'6 195 lbs and this stand is A+ in my eyes comfortable on long sits and light enough that 1 season i hiked over a mile with it and my gear with ease.
Question:	Why do two of the pictures show a completely different stand
Answer:	Not sure. When I purchased ours the pictures were the same just showing different angles
Question:	Is the "closed" aspect a removable option? In other words can a person shoot archery from a sitting position without obstruction from the closed bar
Answer:	No the bar can not be removed.
Question:	Does it fold real flat like the full sized SD
Answer:	Everything is exactly the same as the larger models. Just has shorter platform. Doesn't fold as flat as the lone wolf, but much more comfortable, and easier to climb. I have both.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the maximum diameter tree it can climb
Answer:	In my experience it will be a challenge on any tree a couple of inches wider than the stand. So I would say after measuring my actual stand at only a touch over 20", 21"+ will be close to the max. I expect tree shape and bark roughness are a couple of variables which will impact this max so ymmv. Also in my experience, if you're not narrow in the hips, you can have problems with your pockets, etc. hanging up on the folding arm ends while climbing :-(.
Question:	What's the weight limit
Answer:	I believe it’s #300
Question:	Does this have a mesh platform or straight bar platform
Answer:	This one has the straight bar platform.
Question:	How much does it weigh
Answer:	I think it weighs 19.5 lbs.
