The first and last climber I'll ever own is the Summit Viper. Absolutely awesome stand IMO.
Actually, I didn't believe the hype everyone was spewing about the Viper until I bought one.
I didnt' either. I was reading about everyone raving about their viper on here for years. Finally bought one and started using it. Everything that was said was true. Easy to use, quiet and it's almost too comfortable. The only thing I've ever found wrong with it is every so often when I'm walking with it on my back the teeth from the v of the foot platform will catch the back of my calf. Not sure how or why but it sucks when it happens.
