The metallic slate gray 3 Legged Thing Mike Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs with Quick Leveling Base is part of the Legends range and is for flat-base tripod heads with either a 1/4"-20 or 3/8"-16 threaded mounting hole. It is a carbon fiber leveling-base tripod, with friction control on the underside to finely adjust the position of the leveling base. The 3-section removable legs have a height range of 5.3 to 58.1" and are made from eight layers of carbon fiber and feature twist-lock leg locks with an improved shim system for greater strength.

The Rapid-Latch Angle adjustment system allows you to quickly set the angle of each leg independently, even when wearing gloves.

Each detached leg can be used as a monopod or as a boom arm.

The twist-lock leg locks feature 3 Legged Thing's O-Pads, which provide improved grip, torque, and water dispersal.
