The first thing you will notice is that the rest has a nice 'chunky' look and feel to it. Pick it up though, and it's deceivingly light - weighing in at just over a kilo (2lb 5oz with the double head and cups on to be precise).
It's overall length is approx 38 inch's and it extends from roughly 3 foot to 6 foot, more than enough for 99.9 % of conditions/pegs you're ever likely to come across !
The pod is extremely stable, and the legs come with sold 18mm turned aluminium points.
Everything on the pod locks up solid for transportation, the legs lock into the bottom block that holds the twin cups, the cups can even be turned in-line without taking them off the tripod. Also a handy manouver if you're resting the butts on the floor but don't want to take bits off, just in case you want to put the rods back in the cups later in the session.
Another really important point is that this barbel rest has been designed and manufactured totally in the U.K ! This is no cheap chinese import and all parts are readily available should you have a 'little accident' !
