Right I'm now too old to messing with banksticks and stage stands and such so I'm gonna go for a pod

But there's the question which one ?
I like the worldwide but I want black and I'm not gonna drop 450 on the blacklite solar one about 200 max .I'm doing it to not bend down as far as well so no super low ones where you might as well put the rods on the floor .

Any suggestions would be amazing
TIA

Personally I'd go for one of the tri stick pods, they're some stupidly cheap 1s out there now, but if you want to spoil yourself, I've got the Defiant MPS Titanium Panther, and haven't looked back from my worldwide or sod. I've kept both other pods thinking I might need at least the worldwide but getting older I seriously doubt I'll find myself in a position where my Panther won't cope, and love the option of using sticks if I want to

What about the Solar A1 black aluminium pod can get that well below your £200 limit looks like the same as the more expensive worldwide pod u can't have set the legs lower like the world wide pod does and it comes with fixed 3 rod buzzbars

Fox horizon duo pod? Black and has loads of adjustability. Takes seconds to set up and not silly money.

Had one of those - nice enough pod and lightweight however bankstick locking mechs were poor - difficult to extend with rods insitu and sometimes near impossible to collapse for packing.

Personally would go with Jag - try and get hold of a Super Compact Adjustable; the longer the sticks you use with it the higher it will be! Theres a nice one on FBMplace at the moment with additional 11" sticks
