Wanna Go Steady?

Created out of need (not greed), photographer Cory Shubert found that if the choice to use a monopod or none presented itself, he usually chose nothing. It quickly became apparent that holding a camera and a long lens was not the right choice, and he set out to find a better one.

Unable to locate a device to meet his needs, he decided to make one himself. The result was a device he called the GoPod™. He put a prototype to the test during the 2002-2003 season of the Minnesota Wild hockey team and it performed exactly as he hoped it would.

After a year's worth of shooting and modifications, the GoPod™ was given a complete redesign, including custom fabrication of parts by GoPod™ partner Photo Control Corporation. After user feedback from a half dozen different beta testers from all over the country, the final GoPod™ was ready for its introduction to the photographic community.

GoPod™ details:

• Built with lightweight, industrial grade black anodized aluminum
• 1/2" Poron foam padding to insure the ultimate in comfort and fit
• Custom designed GoLock™ ball head that allows for free movement of camera column
• Compact design breaks down for easy travel as well as set up.
• Made in the USA by respected manufacturer Photo Control Corp.
