Introducing the SideLock aider

Our flagship innovation, the SideLock, is a fully adjustable rope aider that allows hunters to fine-tune their step height on the fly. Ranging from 13 to 25 inches, it adapts to different trees, climbing styles, and body mechanics—something fixed-length aiders simply can’t do. No gimmicks. Just smarter design.

Lightweight Amsteel aiders

Experience the advantage of our purpose-built lightweight Amsteel aiders. Designed for efficiency and quiet movement, they eliminate unnecessary bulk and enhance your mobility in the field. Crafted from high-strength materials, these aiders ensure reliability when it matters most, giving you the edge when chasing mature deer.

"For the last 3 years, I’ve been running the Tree Bandit 2-Step Aider and it’s been a key part of my mobile setup. It’s lightweight, durable, and incredibly efficient, helping me gain extra height quickly and quietly. The consistency and reliability of this aider have played a role in putting me in position to tag multiple mature bucks over the years. If you’re serious about your saddle or mobile system, the Tree Bandit 2-Step Aider is gear you can trust season after season."
