Product Information
Full details
The Trakker Specialist Tripod is designed for anglers and outdoor photographers who require a versatile, rock-solid support system for banksticks, buzz bars, or imaging equipment. Its primary benefit is the combination of a high-strength CNC machined central boss with independently adjustable legs, ensuring stability on uneven banks; however, users should note that the tripod has a specific height range of 30-58 cm, which may limit its use in extremely deep water or high-elevation setups.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the tripod, ensure the central boss is tightened firmly once the desired leg spread is achieved. When inserting your 12mm banksticks, ensure they are fully seated within the provided slots. For maintenance, rinse the legs with fresh water after use in sandy or silty conditions to prevent grit from entering the adjustment locks. If the legs become stiff, a light application of silicone spray on the internal locking threads can maintain smooth operation. Keep the central boss free from heavy debris to maintain the integrity of the CNC threads.
