Levelling-up

With a maximum height of 1.48 metres (58") and the ability to get as low as 13.5cm (5.3") Mike is truly versatile at any height.

The Features:

On The Level

Mike's easy-to-adjust levelling base system enables smooth fast set-ups, and the built-in bubble level ensures perfect positioning.

Versatile & Modular

With 3 detachable legs which can be used as monopods or boom arms, Mike's levelling base can be converted to a table top / low-level tripod, or a foot stabiliser for the monopod, by adding 3LT footwear (sold separately).

Chicken Lips

Mike has been engineered with a style of Chicken Lips (shims) that give the leg locks greater strength, grip and formidable anti-rotation.

Rapid Latch

The new Rapid Latch angle adjustment was designed to be easy to adjust, even for those with impairments, or wearing thick gloves.

O-Pads

Our new raised O-Pads with Bubble Grip texture provide better grip, torque and water dispersement than any other leg lock on the planet.

A Range of Footwear

Mike has detachable rubber Big Bootz which can be replaced with any of our foot accessories, for maximum stability on any terrain, including our DOCZ foot stabiliser.
