At IBC 2025 in Amsterdam, SmallRig was showing a prototype of its TRIBEX Mono Carbon Fiber Monopod.
X-CLUTCH Hydraulic Technology

Featuring a patented clutch design with single-action leg deployment and self-locking function. Adopting a professional automotive-grade hydraulic system enables instant leg opening and closing, eliminating the hassle of manual twisting or wrench operation.
Innovative Patented Quick Release System

Supports instant camera switching to adapt to any shooting scene. Equipped with Arca-spec quick release plate.
Foot-Operated Efficiency

It boasts a unique foot-operated switch design that eliminates the need for constant bending down. Users can step to adjust the angle and step again to instantly return the monopod to the vertical position, freeing up hands for easy operation.

Constructed with carbon fiber, it is lightweight yet durable, with a maximum load capacity of 20kg (44.1lb), sturdy enough to support small and medium-sized cinema camera kits.
The tripod base extends to ≥24cm (9.4in) and remains undistorted when stepped on, ensuring enhanced stability.

Adjustable height ranges from 85cm to 170cm; when stored, it can easily fit into a 20-inch suitcase for portability.
Equipped with 2 x 1/4” screw expansion holes with built-in anti-deflection design, supporting easy connection of various peripherals.
Comes with a detachable wrist strap for convenient storage without interfering with shooting.
Upcoming Complete Ecosystem

A full range of hydraulic series products will be launched in the future to meet the creative needs of more shooting scenarios.
