Tripod preferance; CF or Al?

[Rizzy]

Do you like Carbon Fiber or Aluminum constructed tripods better?
Has anyone broke a CF or bent an Al tripod?

I've only ever had aluminum, so I can't say what I like better. I've never bent my Outdoorsmans mini.

I'm curious to see responses. I've only used aluminum as well. My guess is you can save a little weight, but not enough to really care that much. Most of a tripods weight isn't in the shafts of the legs, but rather the hardware (joints).
