The Steady Rest from Matthews, also known as "Moses' pole", is a double-riser, telescoping pole with a crutch tip on the bottom and a 5/8" baby pin on the top. It is designed to allow you to rest your stabilizer system in-between shots so you can give your back a break. Additionally, it can be used as end support for slider systems when rigged on a dolly to help prevent sag. To rig the Steady Rest to your slider, you need a separately available ball head adapter.

I use this as a Moses pole for my Steadicam sled. It is very strong but not too bulky of heavy so easy to take with you on travel jobs.
Great and compact

Love how compact it is, and it works perfect for me since I don't need a super tall post. Makes it easier to un dock and dock when I need rest
