Tired of being locked into spots. If I was to purchase a climber what would yall recommend?

I'm a pretty big guy and not too nimble as I use to be.

Yes, they are still made and one of the best climbers IMO. I really don't like my API. heavy and the chain is a PITA. The Ol Man is very light and easy to pack up

I am definitely in the minority here but my API is my favorite climber. It is heavier than my summit though.

If I had to choose from a stability standpoint, pine trees are much safer to climb. Thicker bark allows the base to be a little cockeyed and still dig in. On hardwoods they are all wobbly because the prongs dont dig in
