Climber question

My tree I picked for my climber has my cables maxed out to the very first pin hole selection. Does this affect the stability of the platform?

Attached is attached isn't it. After you attach the pin in the other holes, there is no support in the excess cable right? I've used my stand maxed out and had zero issues.

Thanks Rob. Its a pretty thick one (tree), but the best that will present a shot. Its a 3 trunked poplar so when Im up about 15 -20 ft Im surrounded by tree. Im just worried that since I have it maxed out in the furthest pin hole the platform cable will not have the stability if it was maybe half-way.

yea you can max it out with no problems . sometimes i wish the stand would climb a bigger tree but it would take more than just bigger cables to work safely
