I have Lone wolf and gorilla climbing sticks; both are awesome, lightweight, and made of alluminum. The gorillas didn't pivot on the back V like the lone wolfs do so I grinded the lip down so they pivot like the lone wolf's. Gorilla robbed lone wolf's idea and basically copied them.
They also got sued and are no longer producing them.
If you're looking for climbing sticks do yourself a favor and get the Lone Wolf sticks. I promise you that you won't be dissatisfied with them. Some of the best money I've ever spent on hunting gear. They're light, portable, quiet, solid, they stack together and strap down to your stand for easy carrying/transport, and if you space them correctly and put your stand above the last stick you can get to 16-18 feet no problem. I personally use 4 sticks to get that high becauce it's a little easier, but it's definitely doable with only 3.
