Why do you need pointy bits?

Thanks for that, you have saved me a fair bit finding that out before buying one. If I can get pegs in I'd be better off just sticking with my xcavators then

You only need small wood screws to peg the feet down on a stage, cant you do that?

Go on Andy Clark's profile and look at his past posts, lots of good pictures.

Because pegging and screwing just isn't for me

Seriously though, those feet look like they will just get dragged if not pegged or screwed down, or is that not the case?

Unfortunately, the owner of the lake goes spare about stage stands ruining the wood and has banned them, so it's a no-go there and other swims have old boat slipways that are concrete with ridges/cracks, so pointy bits would hold but the boaters get upset if I damage their slipways

I dont use mine on a stage, i use it on the bank at all different angles, bought a bank stick for the front when i need the rods up. Fish for big fish and never had it go over, its very well balanced.

You'd only need 2 screws for the back feet.

Bizarre as Ive had twist happen loads of time on mine the only time it doesn't happen is it I use an Allen key to tighten up the uprights, never had any issues with the legs though once pegged or screwed down they are solid

I can't help this k a lever would of been the answer to begin with

Hi. Sorry I think we were talking at cross purposes. I was trying to answer your question whilst at work and I think I had my wires crossed.

The pod legs have the new style levers on. The nut on the end of the pod bar that clamps the stagebite uprights is still the same nut with the hole in the middle to tighten with an Allen key.

Either way I've never seen one twist.

Sorry for any confusion.

No worries at all mate

I can see how the uprights are less likely to twist than the black banksticks as they are larger diameter than the inner of a bankstick and the knob has more to clamp down on to. Also you can use an Allen key to tighten them up too.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
