I just looked at those at a local store out here in Boise, they look and feel really nice. That being said I haven't used one but the guy working had his personal backcountry lite there and looked like it had been beat to death but was still super smooth if that helps at all.

I’m a big believer in versatility. I rarely stand and glass but sometimes it is inevitable so I make sure I have a tripod I can use standing. That is one of the things most appealing to me about the Front Country. I am 6’1” and there is a lot of room left for stand up glassing. I alway try to be as low as possible and extend the thickest legs first and avoid the center extensions any time possible. I don’t have any tiny tripods left; the few ounces saved to me is not worth it. I can make that up with a healthy morning constitutional…
