My friends dad makes hang on stands out of wood for 20 bux and they only weigh 15lbs. They aren't exactly comfortable for an all day sit but if you put a cushion on them and maybe made the seat bigger you could. Also if anybody takes one its no big deal because it was only 20 bux and he has over 20 of them. I would just buy cheap hang ons and bring a seat pad for them. When it comes to climbers go all out. I had some $200 dollar climbers that just didn't cut it and I finally went with one that costs 350 and was well worth it. It will last me a life time and it will never get stolen so it was worth the money.
