When every ounce in your pack out counts, at 2.5 lbs, the Summit Carbon II keeps you moving without sacrificing stability. Make light work of your next adventure, glassing with the Summit Carbon II in backcountry environments. Carbon fiber leg construction keeps it light and strong, while the four leg sections provide the ultimate in packability, letting the Summit Carbon II collapse to a smaller size, yet still go tall enough to get you the height you need. To cut down on weight even more, Summit Carbon II comes with a detachable center column to go taller when you need it and stow away for lower viewing and packability when you don’t. In-the-field adjustments are smooth and precise, thanks to a 2-way Pan Head, and you can switch out your long-range tools with ease, thanks to the Arca-Swiss compatible quick-release system. Whether you’re working grasslands, forests, or mountains, the Summit Carbon is solid on any surface, with rubber feet for a non-slip grip and three-angle leg pivot locks. This tripod has a 22lb max load and a detachable counterweight hook.
