Overview

With the help of our customers' invaluable feedback, we have made our most compact and versatile adventure-tripod yet. 

The Ascend-14 tripod is a compact, all-in-one support package available in two sizes: 14—which favors a minimum stowed profile, ideal for packing in a carry-on bag, and 14L—which provides an extended working height while still being compact enough when collapsed to easily fit in a backpack. 

For an all-in-one package, look to the integrated ball head that nests into the apex. If you already own one of our ball heads, or any other head with a 3/8" mounting socket, a platform version of the Ascend-14 is offered as well. Instead of the integrated ball head, there is a general use traditional platform with mounting-stud.

Included with the Ascend-14 is our attention to detail, top-quality craftsmanship, and commitment to proudly make and hand-assemble all our tripods in the USA.

    Q & A

    Quick question, when are you expecting to deliver after the preorder of Ascend14. Many thanks!

    What is max height, without center post, of 14 and of 14 l? What is folded length, diameter and weiGHT OF 14L?

    Can the Integrated Acsend Head be removed?

    What are the exact spec differences between 14 and 14l ?

    Will this use the same spike and rock feet?

    When will this be restocked?
