Matthews Floppy Flag (Top Hinge, 40 x 40")
Key Features
  • Opens Up to a 40 x 80" Solid Flag
  • Fits Most "Wagons" or SUVs
  • Hinged to Block Overhead Light
  • Hollow Steel Frame, Solid Steel Mount
Add this 40 x 40" Solid Floppy to your grip kit for easily rigged light control and cutting, with the option to open the flag into a large 40 x 80" black surface. Because Matthews has shaved 8" off of both the height and width of their traditional 4 x 4' floppy, this flag's compact size allows it to be transported in certain passenger vehicles without the need for a dedicated grip truck or cargo van.

Hi, can you help me understand how to choose between the top hinge and bottom hinge varieties of this floppy?
Asked by: Zachary
Top Hinge is the the more popular version, allowing you to support the Floppy from the center of the flag when fully open. The Bottom Hinge place the pin on the non-hinge side of the frame so that you must support the Floppy from the top of the unfolded unit.

Hi, I just got this in the mail. Can you explain how I attach it to a boom arm / grip head? The rod that comes out of it appears too small to be held in place by the grip head. Is there an adapter I need to connect it securely? Thanks

In order to attach to your Boom arm or c-stand the following item is needed. Impact Grip Head for Lights and Accessories - 2.5" Diameter (Chrome) BH #IMKCP200 • MFR #KCP-200 https://bhpho.to/3AURnz6

No, the Matthews Floppy Flag (Top Hinge, 40 x 40") does not come with a bag. However, we sell the Matthews Zippered Flag Bag (40 x 40") which works great.
