Pakpod is the ultimate lightweight, collapsible, rugged tripod built for adventure!
About Pakpod:
Introducing the ultimate adventure tripod. Compact, lightweight, waterproof, and quick to deploy, Pakpod is more versatile than any tripod on the market today. Weighing less than a pound and constructed from the same durable stuff as bike and ski helmets, Pakpod is easily stashed in your backpack. And it’s fast. The patented locking system secures all three legs in wildly asymmetrical positions with the twist of a single knob. It’s the first tripod that lets you stake securely into grass, dirt, sand and snow. Invented by Maine-based free diving film maker Steve Underwood, Pakpod represents a significant advancement in the otherwise stagnant world of tripods and mounts.

My Thoughts:
When I learned about this new tripod, I thought it would be a perfect photography accessory for my husband. I have to admit, I have been using it more than him. It is so versatile, I can use it anywhere, in any condition with any device! I take many photos and videos for my blog and I always have trouble, especially with videos, holding the camera still. Now I can use the camera mounts that came with it for my iPhone or Cannon DSLR camera.
It’s very portable! It folds up small enough to fit in my laptop or messenger bag. It’s very lightweight, only 1.5 pounds so I barely notice that I’m carrying anything extra with me. I love that it has a mount just for the smart phone. I can actually use the existing mount to screw into the case of my phone.
It’s even waterproof so you can bring it in the pool, on the boat or in the lake with your kids. You can even use it in the snow! My hubby and I and even my son will love capturing precious family footage with this tripod. It’s the perfect gift for anyone that loves photography or videography!
And it’s only $99 on Amazon– right now it’s only $79!!
