Excuse me, I meant the handclimber has the sit strap new as a feature. I have used the sit and climb and I have used the hand climber. I prefer the handclimber and the seat is very comfortable. I also feel the seat is very comfortable on the Alpha hangon and have no issue sitting in a tree from dawn to dusk in it. As long as I have back support with a tree to lean against, my butt is iron. I had a summit viper with the comfy seat and all. Those types of seats just aren't as manuverable to shoot out of as the hand climber seat that is open with no rail and no sunk in seat, and definately not as compact. I will only use a climber in public land in SE MN that I hunt, due to the severe elevation. I do know this, ask the AT guys which one they want, and they will agree with me. You can't find a used hand climber over there in the classifieds very often, but guys are always selling the sit and climb. LW sells the hand climber upper as an option as guys want to upgrade to the upper hand climber. If you see a upper over there on AT in the classifies, it is snagged up pretty quick. This pic that LW has doesn't show the new sit strap that comes on the hand climber. Their website shows it in the pic, but when I copied it, it lost the strap??
