Best one out there

I bought this tripod to use as a photography/videography tripod on backcountry hunts, It's definitely light, but the cons outweighed the pros. All three legs have come out of the inserts, and I had to re-glue them all, the legs love to spin when trying to loosen them and the entire plastic insert will twist instead of the leg loosening up it just spins in circles. Where the legs hinge it will loosen as well so make sure to have an Allen wrench that matches the bolts handy or else they will just slap all over while trying to move around while having a camera+long lens attached. Makes for a pretty difficult stalk. The weight hook at the bottom of the center carbon fiber rod also unscrewed itself at some point and is on a mountain somewhere. Pretty un-impressed. Sad since I loved the idea of the company being based here in the states, the inverted leg style, all of it is really an awesome idea, but when it comes to it making my work easier, it just doesn't do the job. I did reach out about a month after I purchased when I had the issue with the first two legs coming unglued, but was told I could just re-glue them myself and would be sent a head for the tripod. I don't want a new head, I want a working tripod after I spent $360 on it. I've ran the tripod for around 8 months and after repeatedly fixing it myself from the same issues, I just figured I'd put my experience with it down. I personally can't justify it anymore.

My first tripod and I have to say it’s amazing. Super lightweight but rock solid. Worth every penny. Shot a doe this evening with my 15lb competition rifle on top of it. Handled the weight like a champ
