I got my Summit Goliath yesterday, and I have a few questions. It is a very nice stand I must say. The DVD was very helpful. The bungee cord that attaches to the foot platform that wraps around the heel of your boots is very loose( comes off easy). I am concerned I will loose it on the way to stand site. Does anyone know how to better mount it or have you replaced it with another bungee. The safety rope that attached the the seat platform to the foot platform I noticed it is not attached until the stand(dvd) is attached to the tree. Is it better to leave the two attached or do what the DVD says, on my API I always left it attached. I had to watch to DVD several times just to figure out how to get the stand ready to pack. I think I see why some think setting up the stand can be noisey. Any tips for faster and quieter setup? thanks
