Revolutionary New Tripod Technology Simplifies and Accelerates Camera Operators’ Workflows With Instant and Easy Setup, Versatile Height Range, and Exceptional Torsional Stiffness.

The Flowtech design offers a set of two-stage carbon fibre tripod legs with an easy-to-remove mid-level spreader, rubber feet, and a payload capacity of 20kg (44lb). Unique quick-release brakes located at the top of the tripod enable all of the legs to be deployed simultaneously and adjust automatically to the ground’s surface, eliminating the need for operators to bend over or manually adjust multiple brakes on each leg.

Lightweight and easy to transport, Flowtech 75 is specifically designed to be carried comfortably on the camera operator’s shoulder, with magnetic locks ensuring that the tripod legs are stable during transport. Flowtech 75 can be deployed as low as 26 cm (10 inches) and as high as 153 cm (60 inches) without the detachable spreader, and between 63 cm (25 inches) to 157 cm (62 inches) with the spreader.

A unique hinge lock mechanism allows users to capture extremely low, ground-level shots removing the need to bring a second set of “baby legs” to each shoot. The exceptional torsional stiffness of Flowtech ensures that the tripod will not twist during camera panning movements, an extremely important consideration in all motion picture productions.

Flowtech Systems are available as kits or the legs on their own. See our website for details by clicking the links below.
