ActionPod® is a clamping monopod that is genius in its simplicity, providing the quickest, easiest mounting solution on the market.  Utilizing a clamp, a threaded top and a single length-adjustable arm, the camera mount removes the complexity of tripods while providing stability and micro-adjustability for your GoPro®, SONY® ActionCam, point-and-shoot or small video camera.

 

 

ActionPod® is surprisingly stable and may be mounted virtually anywhere: trees, bike frames, skateboards, car doors, ski-poles, backpacks, motorcycles...  when you think of a thrilling new angle, ActionPod® is there to get you the shot!  The 5-link, 7” long arm is micro-adjustable, allowing you to frame each shot perfectly.  The strong spring clamp ensures a solid, yet quick to position base that can be moved using one hand.

 

ActionPod® also works with any small device up to 3 lbs that is equipped with a ¼-20 (camera-type) thread: camera flash units, radar detectors, GPS units, on-board lights etc.
