Fairly new to the tripod pond, but splashing in with splashy colors is the 3 Legged Thing Equinox Winston carbon fiber tripod and AirHed 360 ball head. The Winston is one of the most uniquely designed tripods in the lineup, due to its color combinations and leg lock grip design alone. The leg locks have oval-shaped grips and are very pleasant to adjust. One possibly unique feature is that the leg locks have a secondary locking system that prevents you from loosening the locks and completely removing a leg section. Many photographers new to twist-locks often have anxiety filled moments when they accidently disassemble the tripod while trying to extend it! Also, the legs have anti-rotation fittings to keep them from spinning while extending and retracting. Rare for a full-sized tripod, the legs can fold to the inverted position for more compact storage. Need a monopod or heavy-weight selfie stick? One of the Winston’s legs detaches and can serve a multitude of purposes. A maximum height of 76.9" and a very high load capacity of 88.2 lb makes the Winston ready for the heaviest of chores.
