Shuttle Buddy

Flex Frame for HDI Ice Shuttle

$190.00

Description

The Flex Frame is an exoskeleton that wraps around the popular HDI Ice Shuttle allowing the Sidewinder with Quick Draw swivel mount to be utilized in a side or back side mount configuration.  It provides the ultimate in flexibility for your Sidewinder.  

The Flex Frame comes with the Sidewinder and one Quick Draw mount.  Be sure to add a second Quick Draw mount so the Sidewinder can be moved from the back or the side configuration for maximum flexibility.

FEATURES

Patent-Pending Designs.

The Sidewinder is unique in solving the problem of too much gear and not enough hands. By uniting the transducer pole to your shuttle, we have freed up your hands to be more agile and efficient on the ice.

One-Handed Operation

Effortlessly carry your live target electronics plus the transducer, all connected to the Sidewinder, with just one hand. This leaves your other hand free for your rod and reel, making transitions between holes quicker and smoother.

Innovative Universal Turret Design

The unique turret keeps your transducer pole securely attached to the ice shuttle in a vertical orientation for easy one-handed removal and deployment.  The turret clamps are universal, accommodating many pole diameters and easily open with no tools to remove the transducer pole as needed.

Versatile Side Handle

The Sidewinder uses the internal frame hole to act as a handhold to allow horizontal carrying of the system while the transducer pole is still attached and ready for deployment. 

Quick Draw Swivel Feature

The Quick Draw swivel feature is a game changer for portability and agility.  Smoothly remove the shuttle and Sidewinder from the ice hole and swivel the Quick Draw into the horizontal position and lock it into position with safety pin to travel to you next fishing hotspot.

Convenient Tool Holder

A dedicated slot for your fish pliers. 

Compact Design

The Flex Frame with Sidewinder is 20% lighter than the Shuttle Buddy Pro and has a 30% smaller footprint, making it more compact. 

High-Quality Materials

The Flex Frame and Sidewinder is made from High-Density Polyethylene, aircraft aluminum and stainless-steel fasteners, making it durable and waterproof! 

Flexibility

The best part of the Flex Frame is its side or back side mount configuration and Sidewinder is that the transducer pole tripod can stay set up and intact, allowing it to be used in its traditional setup as well. This makes it great for the fisherman who loves being mobile or fishing in a permanent house.
