Gitzo GS5030VSF Retractable Spiked Feet Adapter Set (3 Pieces)

Comments about Gitzo GS5030VSF Retractable Spiked Feet Adapter Set (3 Pieces):

It was very fortunate that I lost one of the feet from my Gitzo tripod. I ordered these spiked feet and I am glad that I have them. I shoot mostly outdoor landscapes and animal images and really appreciate the solid support these feet give me on all types of surfaces. Highly recommended.

The retractable spiked feet enhance the tripod's stability on most surfaces, and reduce vibration.

I use the spiked feet better than half the time I'm shooting. Being able to retract the spikes and use the rubber feet is VERY convenient! And the spikes provide a solid grip in the ground causing for a secure footing.

I bought these because I had lost one of the feet to my Gitzo tripod. I'm planning on going to do a trek in India and figured these spiked feet will work very well with the ground we'll be trekking on. The spikes are very strong. Don't think it'll break anytime soon. unscrew the rubber feet to it's lowest point to make it just rubber feet if you don't wanna scratch up floors. They are a little chunkier than the ones the tripod came with.
They can be installed very easily. Just unscrew the old ones and screw in the new ones. Can't get any simpler than that.

I use this product as a replacement for the rubber feet that came with the tripod (3531GT - I lost one of those the first week). You have to manually switch the feet between rubber and the spiked configuration, but it;s perfect to have both options.
A bit of Loctite (least potent) helps keep the feet from coming loose in sand or tides.

Comments about Gitzo GS5030VSF Retractable Spiked Feet Adapter Set (3 Pieces):

These Gitzo feet need a stop on them so our guys cannot unscrew them so far that they fall off. The replacement feet are exactly the same as the originals as expected.

When first used my Gitzo tripod on a job, did not realize the feet/spikes were loose, lost one. I tried my local shop who sold me the unit for a replacement, and no response. No substitute for the original feet, and found them at B&H for a reasonable price. Thanks B&H!

Excellent universal foot for work in the field and at home. 's very convenient to work in a grass surface and rocks.
One of the drawbacks like to note that the legs need to have a strong twist. I have a few feet lost.

Comments about Gitzo GS5030VSF Retractable Spiked Feet Adapter Set (3 Pieces):

When I bought my Gitzo legs, the salesperson at my local shop warned me about the feet and recommended I use locktite to prevent them from falling off. Sure enough, I ignored his advice and I lost one of the feet somewhere in Arizona. I rushed to [@]and found three bolts that fit right into the legs. It helped prevent dust and sand from getting inside the legs for the rest of the trip. I ordered these feet as soon as I got back, I locktite'd them and with the added advantage of the spikes, I feel ready for the next trip.

Straight-forward product, easy to attach, does what it should.

Comments about Gitzo GS5030VSF Retractable Spiked Feet Adapter Set (3 Pieces):

Function perfectly as rubber ball feet or spike feet for traction in loose soil. Only complaint I have is for what a Gitzo tripod costs, this item should have come with the tripod at no extra cost.

Comments about Gitzo GS5030VSF Retractable Spiked Feet Adapter Set (3 Pieces):

These feet are a great product. I had used similar feet before on my Manfrotto video tripod, so I was very happy to see that they were available for my 3-series Gitzo. A little Loctite will go a long way with this product.

Comments about Gitzo GS5030VSF Retractable Spiked Feet Adapter Set (3 Pieces):

This is great if you don't need rubber to hit the ground because it will not.

Comments about Gitzo GS5030VSF Retractable Spiked Feet Adapter Set (3 Pieces):

Nice idea, but the choice of a simple soft wire prevent the rubber feet from falling off is just a bad one. You can completely unscrew the foot with your fingers - the retainer just falls off.

I ended up putting the feet on a lathe and cutting a slightly deeper notch for a standard e-clip. Works fine now.

Comments about Gitzo GS5030VSF Retractable Spiked Feet Adapter Set (3 Pieces):

Replacement feet for two stock feet that had loosened and fallen off of my Gitzo G2220. Received just in time for a week-long trip to Vienna.

Perfect for everything from soft, wet soil on a steep hill to delicate wooden floors.

Comments about Gitzo GS5030VSF Retractable Spiked Feet Adapter Set (3 Pieces):

I had the same kind on my old tripod, but they weren't nearly as nicely constructed as these, nor as stout. These are designed for the GT3541 XLT which is designed to have interchangable feet. The design is great because they can be used on either sharp rock with tiny slots for the pointed tip or the rubber piece can be screwed down to be placed on a wood floor to keep from causing scratches.
