iStabilizer Flex mount

Joby’s GorrillaPod has owned the market in flexible tripods and mounts. Their versatility is great, and I have owned a number of them over the years. But that specifically is the problem for me with Gorrilla Pod. I have had to buy a number of them. They break if you flex them too sharply, they melt in the sun, and wear out quickly with use.

 

iStabilizer is showing the Flex mount. The legs have found the sweet spot of being both more rigid and flexible at the same time. When you bend a leg it stays put, firmly. As you can see from the photo, you can wrap it around a treebranch, something I have never been able to do confidently with my GorrillaPod. Additionally, the tension frame camera mount will work with any small phone and many point-and-shoot cameras. Or use your own mount on the standard tripod mount screw.
