Description

A Landscape before time...

Winston 2.0 is our most stable tripod yet. Resolute and steadfast under the most demanding of circumstances and built to carry heavy burdens to the end, Winston 2.0 lives up to his namesake as a rugged, stable and determined contributor. Powerful & functional, Winston 2.0 is a benchmark in tripod technology. Able to counter fold for transportation and with 3 detachable legs, Winston 2.0 is undeniably the most versatile three-section tripod in existence. Capable of holding 40 kg / 88 lb, Winston 2.0 is a robust workhorse.

Not one, not two, but three

Winston 2.0 is as versatile as his travel counterparts, this evolution of its predecessor Winston features 3 detachable legs that double as camera or microphone booms. Alternatively, all 3 legs can be detached with the addition of 3LT footwear, and can be converted to a table-top tripod.

One small step for man

Winston 2.0 is our most stable tripod yet. Design for the purists among us, Winston is a huge leap forward in tripod technology, and one of the strongest tripods in the world today.

Optimised for heavy loads

Winston's unique construction allows for a multitude of setups and configurations, to suit the needs of even the most niche applications.

Winston 2.0 Carbon Fibre Tripod System: The Features


Counter fold Legs

Winston 2.0 is one of the only full-size tripods in the world to feature counter fold legs, enabling the user to fold Winston into just 61cm / 24".

Max Load to Weight Ratio of 23:1

Winston 2.0 is capable of supporting loads up to 23 times his weight. With a 40kg payload, Winston is one of the strongest tripods in the world.

Knurled Knobs

Pro Range 2.0 tripods, including Winston, now have Knurled caps on the leg locks, and column lock, as well as on the AirHed Pro available in Winston kits. The knurling creates a grippier surface enabling users to apply greater leverage when loosening or tightening.

Parallel Locking

3 Legged Thing's unique Parallel Locking system provides better leverage, and greater rigidity, without the hassle of accidental disassembly.

Multiple Mounting Points

Our patented Tri-Mount plate offers multiple threaded connections and three hollowed spurs for accessory attachments and has refined contouring for ease of use.

A Range of Footwear

Winston 2.0 has detachable rubber Little Bootz, which can be replaced with any of our foot accessories, for maximum stability on any terrain.
