Introducing the Legends Range - 3 Legged Thing's first photo / video hybrid products

LEGENDS - A new tripod range inspired by the creativity and innovation of pro skateboarder, musician and photographer Ray Barbee. At present our portfolio consists of two fantastic ranges of tripods: Punks - with a choice of 5 affordable tripod systems, and Pro Range, which is designed for greater strength, stability and versatility. Now, we are excited to introduce our new Legends range - the most incredible tripods we've ever made. The new Legends range begins with the introduction of two tripods - Mike & Jay, and the AirHed Cine. Building on the success of our Pro Range, Legends takes our unique tripod technology to a new level. To begin, here's a brief overview of the new technologies shared by the Legends Range tripods. 3 Detachable Legs As a standard feature of all Legends range tripods, all 3 legs are detachable, enabling them to be used as monopods or boom arms. Using 3LT footwear*, Jay & Mike's levelling base can be used to create a table top/low-level tripod or a foot stabiliser for the monopod. We will shortly introduce a new type of footwear - Vanz - to maximise the potential of this exciting new range. *additional footwear sold separately O-Pads The Legends Range features a combination of our most successful grip technologies. The O-Pads are ring-shaped rubber pads, inset with our famous bubble-grip pattern. The combination of these technologies provides better water dispersion and grip than any tripod in our history. Rapid Latch For the first time in our history, we are introducing a sprung latch into our top range. The Rapid Latch was designed to overcome issues for photographers with disabilities, and to enable those wearing thick gloves to easily and quickly manage angles. Awesome AirHeds The Legends Range products will be available with a variety of highly innovative new heads. Alongside Mike & Jay we are announcing our first video head - the AirHed Cine - in two varieties: AHCINE-S with Standard Video plate for use with video cameras AHCINE-A with Arca-Swiss compatible plate for use with mirrorless and DSLR cameras and big lenses with Arca shoe attachments. JAY & MIKE JAY & MIKE are 3LT's first hybrid photo/video products. The first of its kind, JAY is a carbon fibre levelling-base travel tripod, specifically designed to be compact for transportation. Folding to just 40.5 cm / 15.94 ", JAY is small enough to be stowed in a camera bag or cabin bag.  This allows video and image makers to take JAY with them however far they might travel. Legends MIKE is our full size levelling base tripod. Designed for incredible stability, MIKE has 3-section legs with a max diameter of 29mm. The contoured levelling base is easy to adjust, with a friction control on the base for fine adjustments. Both tripods have three detachable legs to enable conversions to monopod & foot stabiliser*, boom, and table-top or low-level tripod*, and feature our Rapid Latch and O-Pad technologies. *Requires footwear, sold separately Legends Jay Carbon Fibre Levelling-Base Travel Tripod Jay is named after the late Jay Adams, the Dogtown skateboarder, whose style was inspired by surfing, influencing a whole new generation of skaters.
