I have been runnin that setup for 4 years now. Great pieces of equiptment, silent, and durable. I leave my sets up for periods of time and I will pull 2 sticks down so others are not so tempted to permanently borrow my stuff.
I use a harness with the linemans strap around the tree to set up sticks and stand for safety purposes. Great eqpt. but you pay for it and you get what you pay for.

Lost,
Pros: Light, Quiet, Solid as a Rock, every feature EXTREMELY well thought out.
Cons: Not quite as comfy as say a Summit climber for an all day sit.
Get yourself a fourth stick; I have never figured out how they get up over 15' with only three.

I had the stand and have the sticks.
I had problems with the original sticks with one of the steps breaking off. Good thing I always keep 3 points of contact when going up or down. They promptly sent me all new steps of a beefed up variety. The only thing I dont like about the sticks is that if you put any sideways pressure on them they will skid out to the side (on hardwoods). Plus they are way over priced IMO. But they are very handy and light.
The stand had the same problem on hardwoods. It would skid out, was overpriced and was uncomfortable for me. But it too was light and handy for a quick set up and a fairly short sit.
I think there are better stands out there for a lot less.

I love the weight of the Lone Wolf sticks I just wish that they were a little less costly . I know you get what you pay for . But they are not in the budget this year : (
