The Ready Rig GS Stabilizer Kit with Nimbus Crossbar and VEGA Upgrade created by B&H equips you with a comprehensive system for improved vertical axis stabilization. Transfer the weight of your rig to your lower body and legs to better withstand the rigors of long shooting days. Multiple expansion components allow you to create a camera configuration that best suits your production. The main component of the kit is the GS Stabilizer vest with ProArms, capable of supporting loads up to 40 lb and with a 55" boom range. The VEGA Upgrade v2 secures to the lower back area of the GS vest for improved lift. The Nimbus Crossbar Upgrade kit provides you with a crossbar and locking quick-connect module for versatile mounting configurations.
Add the Nimbus Crossbar Upgrade Kit to your preexisting Ready Rig support vest configuration to capture floaty yet precise handheld shots. The kit features a crossbar with multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads to mount your equipment and a locking quick-connect module with interchangeable 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded ball heads for camera mounting. Switch between short and long composite rope lengths, or create your own customized rope length with the composite rope kit. The kit supports loads up to 40 lb, easily accommodating cine rigs. An independent monitor mount ensures you can visualize your shots even when the camera is not at eye level.
The Ready Rig VEGA Upgrade v2 screws onto the Ready Rig GS vest around the lower back area and also secures to the ProArms via integrated bands. This way, it adds an improved lift system that ensures better shock absorption, better stability, and more balanced boom action. At the same time, it redistributes the weight of your load to your legs and core, so you also get reduced fatigue and can shoot for longer times. The VEGA Upgrade v2 also provides a handgrip on the rear that a spotter can hold on to and guide you when you work on difficult elaborate shots.

Use the Ready Rig GS Stabilizer + ProArm Kit to transfer the weight of a gimbal-mounted camera away from an operator's arms and shoulders. By redistributing the load to the user's hips and core, this rig enables you to extend your shooting time and lessens operator fatigue. It also reduces the bounce motion sometimes seen during handheld gimbal shots. The Ready Rig GS Stabilizer works with any gimbal in standard or underslung mode.
The Ready Rig ProArms increase the basic GS Stabilizer's load range from 30 to 40 pounds. They telescope from 23 to 37", producing an effective boom range of 55". For greater operating convenience, the ProArms also feature 1/4"-20 and 3/8-16" threads, enabling you to mount an onboard monitor to either arm.
The Ready Rig GS with ProArms features a load capacity range of 1 to 40 pounds, carbon fiber support arms, and an aluminum frame. Its slim, compact profile suits it for use in tight spaces and car interior shots. A soft, zippered carrying case is included with this kit.
