I love my rapid rails.I alwaysworry about people stealing my stands so when i havea treestand up,i leave the bottom 8-10ft of the tree bare. From 10ft up I have screw-in steps in place. I carry the two longest rapid rails in with me, which is lightweight and they strap together very easily. And once I put them on the tree, I can reach my screw in steps. I've never used the LW climbing sticks so i cant talk smack on them but i can say that the Rapid rails are very user friendly and you can get them from Sportsmans Guide for $59.
