Default Wider Climber trestands?

Does any manufactuerer make a wider climbing treestand? Its seems as most I've looked at are 20" wide. I'd love to have a 22" to 24" wide climber. Does anyone know of any wider climbers?

Thanks!

Although I don't have the specs you can look at the Summit Goliath. The seat portion is wider than their regular stands.

I wonder if stand manufactuerers don't make them wider than 20 " because of saftey reasons. The wider stands would be harder to keep stable if you stood on one side. I'm just guessing but I would sure like a 24" wide climber stand!

GoodLuck!

Ol Man makes the Grand Multi-Vision which is 24". I have the Grand Vision which is the older version (foot/gun rest isn't removable). It is a very comfortable stand. During the rut I'm in it 12-13 hrs at a time, with no discomfort. If I could change anything about it, I would make it lighter. 27 lbs. gets to be a little heavy after a mile walk back in. They did make lighter versions made with titanium, don't know if they still do or not, but they were about $100 more than the regular ones. Good luck.

cloud 9 i have owned both old man and summit. the summit is by far the best. the old man is too heavy and the pins are just plain bad all the way around. the base of my old man was making a rubbing sound when i moved not matter what type of tree or what size. the summit on the other hand is much easier to use.
