You have three options: use the adjustable legs to bend towards you or the spreader bars to lean back against anything. In fact, use any combination of leg angle settings to achieve the most stability for any light source from spotting scopes to digital cameras. DeathGrip Infinite provides you with an infinite number of possibilities for adjustments in height. Even while you're sleeping, the flexible rubber feet ensure a good grip on any surface. And, rubber feet on the floor or on the ground give you traction that you can rely on. Bog-Pod'd DeathGrip Infinite also includes a reversible rubber hook, so you can hook onto your backpack or other gear. And, for easy carrying, the DeathGrip Infinite folds into a folded position and fits into a carry case that is easily carried in a back pack.
