The SmallRig x Potato Jet Tribex Hydraulic Carbon Fibre Tripod Kit is designed for professional outdoor videography, offering swift and convenient operation. Featuring X-clutch hydraulic technology, squeezing a single clutch allows all legs to rapidly unfold, adjust the angle, and automatically lock in just one second, providing photographers with a seamless experience. The clutch can also be adjusted to 45° and 90° to accommodate various shooting scenarios. Constructed with carbon fibre, both the legs and central column ensure lightweight design while delivering exceptional stability and high load-bearing capacity.

Operating height ranges from 27cm (10.6in) to 168cm (66.1in), and a compact storage length of 79cm (31.1in). The central column features a quick-lock design for easy height adjustments, with a detachable Allen wrench built into the other side of the hook for convenient camera equipment assembly/disassembly, and the option for low-angle shooting at a minimum height of 27cm (10.6in). The tripod's compact design allows it to fit in any standard luggage.

The kit includes a compact and lightweight hydraulic fluid head featuring an adjustable 6-step counterbalance system. When the gravitational centre height is set at 55mm (2.2 inches), the 6-step counterbalance system effectively stabilises cameras or other equipment (up to 6kg / 13.2 lbs) while providing precise control over camera tilt. The fluid head allows seamless, stepless adjustments for tilt and pan damping, catering to filmmakers' varying shooting preferences.

The fluid head adopts a new Touch-and-Go quick release mount plate design which does not require alignment and is more efficient than traditional slide-in plates. The plate is compatible with Manfrotto and DJI RS series quick release plates, facilitating swift transitions between stabilisers and tripods during filming. The user-friendly detachable telescopic handle enables easy head control when attached to either the left or right side, ensuring compatibility with any grip. The fluid head also features two 1/4"-20 threaded holes for attaching accessories like magic arms, along with a built-in flat head screw for convenient camera installation and removal. The tripod also includes quick-release rubber feet with integrated spikes, allowing for seamless adaptation to various terrains
