I bought my first pro pod well over ten years(maybe over fifteen!!) ago. I used it at racetracks coast to coast in all kinds of weather. After all those years of constant panning I finally wore through the rubber foot and drew some dirt into the tubes. The dirt scratched the tube surfaces and made the pod tough to open and close(besides that, it still does its job). All those years of hard work and absolutely no maintenance!! Just a tiny bit of attention from me and my first pro pod would have lasted forever! I didn't have to see if there might be a better monopod out there to buy because THERE ISN'T!!
This Monopod is very solidly built and easy to extend. I feel very secure with my equipment mounted on it and carrying it around a shoot. Used most for sports and wildlife. The diameter of the shaft provides a solid base for my valuable equipment.
