The Punks Series Billy Carbon-Fiber Tripod with AirHed Neo Ball Head from 3 Legged Thing is a support system that features a tripod with a detachable leg and removable center column, which can be combined to form a monopod with a 32.5 to 67.5" adjustable height. Cameras, lenses, or sport optics that are compatible with a 1/4"-20 mount can be connected to the included QR4 Quick Release Plate, which is secured to the AirHed Neo Ball Head using a quick release clamp. The ball head is removable, provides up to a 90° tilt for portrait orientation, 360° of independent rotation, and can be locked into place along its range of movement.

When configured as a tripod, it supports up to 40 lb and measures 17.7" when folded. Each of its 4-section legs features an independent spread, a 3-position angle lock, and twist locks for rapid deployment. As a tripod, it can be set at a minimum height of 17.7", or 7.8" without its removable, push-and-pull, rapid center column. Together, the three legs can be extended to obtain a maximum height of 55", or 65" when used with the center column fully raised. To further enhance stability on a wide variety of surfaces, each of the carbon-fiber legs includes a rubber foot.

For added versatility, the center column is reversible, facilitating low-angle photography where an attached camera is positioned among the tripod's legs instead of above them. A nylon tripod carry bag with a drawstring closure, as well as a microfiber ball head carry bag are included for storage and transport.
