Default New Summit stands

Has anyone tried the new Summit Bullet Backpacker stand? Is this worth the extra money compared to a Viper XLS? I like the concept of having the stand fold flat, but not if it sacrifices comfort or ease of setup. Any input would be great...thanks!!!!

I dont know about the one you are asking about but I have a viper and you cant get a better climber than this one bar none absolutley the best and safest on the market.

I have not used or actually seen any of the new stands in person. going just by the pictures though it would appear that the stands once setup will be every bit as comfortable and stable as there other stands. It may take a bit longer to setup compared to the already fast viper/cobra/bushmaster stands, but I don' t think it will be that much of a problem and lord knows if you have to carry the stand for any distance the folding flat feature would be worth it' s weight in gold!

IMO, lookin at the pics, the broadhead would not be as confortable as the cobra, and weighs 4 lbs more. the cobra' s back rest comes up higher than the broadhead.
it' s also $20 more. not worth it in my opinion, just because it folds flat.
comfort and lightweight are my to biggies., and the cobra has them beat on both.
