Helium Stick Mod Q&A

Unread postby DaveT1963 » Sat Oct 13, 2018 11:35 pm

Hopefully this short video will answer many of the questions folks have had about how I modifying my helium sticks. One thing that I meant to mention that I did not is that I use a quarter inch Amsteel Blue (black color)

Very nice video. I don't have any sticks yet but I enjoyed the details in the video. Got me thinking of things to consider.

I've watched your vids and they were helpful. I just did the rope mod on Friday night. Noticeably lighter and pack better than having the mount for the stock buckle strap.

I also purchased tubular webbing and will be using it at the top of the stick rather than the bottom of the stick.

Great informative video Dave !!!
I do have one question
When you cut your stick, which end do you cut?
The bottom or the top?
Or does it matter?
Thanks

I cut mine from the top but really don't think it matters much

Thanks for the video. Did you paint these sticks camo, or is that camo tape on them?

Dave, now that you have a set of Dan's sticks how does your helium's compare? I also have a set of helium's looking to do the same thing you've done. However if Dan's sticks are that much lighter I will probably go with those instead of modifying mine. Have you weighed your sticks?
