SmallRig 5756 X Potato Jet TRIBEX Carbon II Hydraulic Tripod

SmallRig 5756 X Potato Jet TRIBEX Carbon II Hydraulic Tripod (without video head) – X-Clutch hydraulic for one-second leg deployment

This SmallRig x Potato Jet TRIBEX Carbon II tripod is the without-video-head version designed for professional outdoor filmmakers who need fast, reliable setup. It uses X-Clutch hydraulic technology so you can open all legs, set angles and lock them automatically with a single squeeze in about one second.

Fast single-clutch operation

The X-Clutch hydraulic system lets you unfold and lock all three legs quickly. With one squeeze of the clutch, the legs unfold, you adjust the angle, and they automatically lock in place. You can also set the clutch to fixed positions at 45° and 90° to match different shooting scenarios.

Carbon fiber construction and load capacity

Both the legs and the center column are made from carbon fiber. This gives the tripod a lightweight profile while maintaining high stability. The tripod supports a maximum load of 25kg and the unit itself weighs 2.6kg.

Height range, compact storage and low-angle shooting

The tripod operates from a minimum height of 15cm up to 155cm. When folded, it reaches a compact storage length of 66cm. The center column supports low-angle shooting, allowing a minimum height of 15cm when configured for low positions.

Center column features and tool storage

The center column has a quick-lock design for fast height adjustments. For convenience during setup and breakdown, the tripod includes a detachable Allen wrench stored on the other side of the hook. This keeps the tool accessible for camera equipment assembly and disassembly.

Feet, accessory mounts and camera attachment

The tripod uses quick-release rubber feet with integrated spikes so you can adapt quickly to different terrains. It also provides three 1/4"-20 threaded holes for mounting accessories such as magic arms. A built-in flat head screw makes camera installation and removal straightforward.

Travel and compatibility

The tripod’s compact design fits in standard 28" luggage, making it suitable for travel. For head compatibility, it features a 3/8”-16 threaded flat base connection.
