It stands 16 feet to the shooting rail, runs three sturdy ladder sections, and gives two hunters a real 42" wide by 30" deep platform to work from. No cramped knees, no fighting over the best shot lane. Just a quiet, solid perch where you can actually settle in and hunt.   What sets the Skywalker apart is the 38" wide bench seat with no center bar in the way. If you've ever tried to pass a rifle behind a buddy's back at first light, you know exactly why that matters. The 19" backrest, padded armrests, and flip-up footrest turn a long sit into something you can actually finish. When that shooter buck finally steps out, the flip-up padded shooting rail gives you a dead-steady rest for the rifle or a clean opening for the bow.   Build quality is where Trophy Treestands quietly earns its reputation. Heavy-duty oval tubing resists twisting and squeaking, the jaw safety system clamps the stand tight to the tree, and the blendz-in powder coat finish keeps the steel rust-free season after season while breaking up its outline against bark. Rated to 500 pounds, it's got plenty of headroom for two hunters plus all the gear you can stuff into a pack. Need more elevation? Add the optional TA910 4-foot ladder section and stretch it to a full 20 feet to the rail.   This is a stand built for hunters who want to put one in the perfect pinch point and forget about it, except for the part where you climb up and fill tags out of it.   Check Out The Full Lineup Of Trophy Treestands Gear   Trophy Treestands Hunting Gear   Why Hunters Love It   Ask anyone who's hunted out of a cheap ladderstand and they'll tell you the same thing. The wobble, the squeak, the seat that feels like a church pew by 9 a.m. The Skywalker fixes all of that. Two hunters can actually share it without bumping shoulders, the platform is wide enough for bowhunters to work, and the build feels heavy in the right places.   It's also one of those stands that earns its keep on father and kid hunts, mentor sits, and those season-opener mornings when you want company in the tree. Set it on a good corner of an oak flat or along a soybean edge and it'll put deer on the ground for a long time.   Frequently Asked Questions   How tall is the Skywalker ladderstand? The Skywalker is 16 feet from the ground to the shooting rail using its three standard ladder sections. You can extend it to a full 20 feet by adding the optional TA910 4-foot ladder section, sold separately.   What is the weight capacity of the Skywalker TDL213? It's rated for 500 pounds, which comfortably handles two adult hunters plus packs, firearms, and gear. That overhead capacity is one reason it holds up so well year after year.   Is the Skywalker bowhunter friendly? Yes. The 42" wide by 30" deep platform, flip-up seat, and flip-up footrest open up plenty of room to stand and draw. The bench seat has no center bar, so two bowhunters can shift and shoot without getting tangled up.   How many people does it take to set up? Plan on at least two people, ideally three, for a safe install. Ladderstands at this height should always be raised with a partner, a haul rope, and the included jaw safety system locked tight to the tree before anyone climbs.   What is the blendz-in powder coat finish? It's a baked-on coating designed to blend into hardwoods and pines while protecting the steel from rust. It cuts glare and helps the stand disappear into the tree, which matters more than most hunters give it credit for.   Can I leave the Skywalker out year-round? The heavy-duty oval steel tubing and powder coat finish are built to handle the elements, but for maximum life we recommend pulling straps tight each preseason, inspecting all hardware, and replacing any worn ratchet straps before you climb.   Does it come with a safety harness? A full-body safety harness should be worn any time you climb into or out of the stand. Always check the included manufacturer materials for the specific harness and fall-arrest gear packaged with your unit, and never hunt from elevation without one.
