Beautiful professional-quality pole. Closed length: 84.4 cm - fully extended: 203.4 cm. The system is simple: You have to "screw" for the branches they lock the "undo" to free them, but there was a coup to take, a balance to find (if you unscrew the bottom, it's crashes again), but it will become instinctive on. Anyway, you have discreet entries at the end of each branch to help you fold it or spread. The foam is very pleasant to the touch for maximum comfort during all those hours of sound recordings. The lightness of the whole will avoid cramping or other premature fatigue of arms, which is still an excellent point. I use it with a suspension and a microphone Rode NTG-2 (light also) and there really is nothing negative to write about it. I would also have liked the clips (to fix the XLR cable) are included.
