Best tripod system? Fat Boy Elevate Tripod and Levitate Head

I wanted to show off in a little more detail my new Fat Boy tripod! This is their Elevate tripod. It is an inverted type, meaning the locks for the legs are on the top instead of the bottom of the legs. No more bending down and fiddling with levers to lock the tripod legs!! There are others that do this, but the thing that sold me on going with this Fat Boy model is their head. I got the Levitate head with this one. It's like a half ball head with a lever below instead of the usual knob on the side of the full ball. The benefits of this can be seen in the ease of locking and unlocking the head, and the biggest benefit is the additional stability. Instead of balancing your rifle on top of a round ball, this removes the top of that ball and gives you a lower, more flat surface to be mounted to. Lower center of gravity is always more stable, and this is a great example of that! The downside to this design is there is only 15 degrees of angular movement. So more mountainous areas might want to consider the standard Invert 60 head. It should be quite stable as well, but this is just a bit more. But you will have much, much more throw on the full ball. For me, in a mostly flat area of the country in southwest Oklahoma, I don't have to worry about high degree shots being needed, so the Levitate is perfect for me!!

I also got their Side Chick. This is a nifty attachment that threads onto any of the 1/4-20 threaded mounts on the tripod. It has 4 total. One on the platform and one on each of the 3 legs. This Side Chick gives a handy way to keep your phone, Kestrel, game call, anything else you want within reach. It is like a camera magic arm with the double ball jointed adjustment. Just loosen the knob, move it where you want, and lock the knob down to keep your gear within reach!! It's a spring-loaded holder, like common phone holders. But made of metal!!

Let me know what you think or if you see something I missed, I will be happy to answer any questions you may have to the best of my ability!! I hope this look at the Fat Boy Elevate and Levitate showed it off well for you to decide if this is something you might want. If you are in the market, reach out to Paramount Tactical. They answered all my questions and are some really solid people running a great business. I am very pleased with my purchase from them, and they have the best price I found! Another win!!
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your time and I wish you a great week and a wonderful weekend!!
