Avenger Overhead Stand 59 (Chrome-plated, 19.3')

the monster you need

have two of these and purchased without the wheels.....much of my work is location so the wheels just seemed like a nuisance initially. Although I never have my scrims flown at full extension, I am super nervous above 12 feet and always heavily bag this stand. With that said,these are essential equipment for 12X12s and 8X8s, and that's what I use them for. I also have a crossbar pipe that fits in the drop pin to hold multiple lights at the same stand on super clamps; works great, as advertised, but I rarely have that use and I can only say that the stand holds up to four strobe heads with ease and safety. This stand is huge and heavy - as it should be - and for that very specialized use for my work I have had great results...you can get away with general uses if you're shooting feature length films. This stand will easily handle a 8K. Very possibly multiples on the aforementioned cross bar, if you are spending someone else money. again, this stand is a beast, very stout, well built ,and will handle most everything you can throw at it.....if you can stand the load in and load out.....eat your wheaties.
