A triple-riser combo stand built for height: four sections take it to 4.45m, and it still carries 40kg up there. “Combo” means the stand top accepts both standard studio fittings, so a heavy head goes on as readily as a small one.

The universal stand top does three jobs at once: a 28mm (1-1/8″) junior receiver, a 16mm (5/8″) baby receiver, and a multi-directional 16mm baby stud. Whatever fitting the fixture arrives with, the top will take it without an adaptor.

One leg levels independently of the other two — Rocky-mountain leg — so the stand stands square on stairs, a slope or rough ground. Double leg struts brace it, and PA66 nylon foot pads protect both the legs and the floor.

The details that decide how long a stand lasts: a solid cast aluminium knob on a stainless bolt, a stainless steel heli-coil insert in the die-cast riser so the threaded hole cannot strip, a hanger cast into the upper spider for rack storage, an eye ring for a wind-bracing kit, and an oversized brake shoe for a firm lock-off.
