SmallRig x Potato Jet TRIBEX CARBON II Hydraulic Tripod 5756

SmallRig x Potato Jet TRIBEX CARBON II Hydraulic Tripod 5756 is the SmallRig x Potato Jet TRIBEX Carbon II Tripod Kit 5755 (ID:5755) without video head version, designed for professional outdoor filmmakers, offering swift and convenient operation. Featuring X-Clutch hydraulic technology, squeezing a single clutch allows all legs to rapidly unfold, adjust the angle, and automatically lock in just one second, providing photographers with a seamless experience. The clutch can also be adjusted to 45° and 90° to accommodate various shooting scenarios. Constructed with carbon fiber, both the legs and center column ensure a lightweight design while delivering exceptional stability and high load-bearing capacity of 25kg (55lbs), it weighs only 2.6kg (5.7lbs).

The tripod operating altitude ranges from 15cm (5.9in) to 155cm (61.0in), and a compact storage length of 66cm (26.0in). The center column features a quick-lock design for easy height adjustments, with a detachable Allen wrench built into the other side of the hook for convenient camera equipment assembly/disassembly, and the option for low-angle shooting at a minimum height of 15cm (5.9in). The compact design of the tripod allows it to fit in any standard luggage (28"). The tripod also features three 1/4"-20 threaded holes for attaching accessories like magic arms, along with a built-in flat head screw for convenient camera installation and removal. The tripod also includes quick-release rubber feet with integrated spikes, allowing for seamless adaptation to various terrains.

The SmallRig × Potato Jet TRIBEX CARBON II carbon fibre tripod 5756 is the legs-only version of the 5755 kit – without the hydraulic head. Developed with Gene "Potato Jet" Nagata, it is built for fast work on location: the patented X-CLUTCH hydraulic system sets up and levels the tripod in one squeeze, and the same motion adjusts the height. The hydraulics are tested leak-free at 60 °C and do not freeze down to −20 °C.
