Alana is the carbon fibre monopod for wildlife and sports photographers and videographers who travel.
The Traveller
With 5-sections, Alana is designed to be compact when folded, ensuring it can easily fit into luggage or camera bags.
Built for Comfort
Alana’s top section features a large rubber grip for comfort alongside the smooth, curved, magnesium alloy mounting plate. Its leg locks feature grippy rubber O-Pads making it comfortable to use in any weather.
Robust
Formed from 8 layers of 100% pure carbon fibre, Alana is both strong and lightweight, yet can support up to 60 kg of camera gear.
Dual purpose
With 1/4”-20 and 3/8”-16 threads at both ends, Alana excels as a monopod, and can also be used as a lighting or boom arm.
Features
- Alana can support almost 100 times its own weight, with a 60 kg load capability
- Thanks to its dual 1/4”-20 and 3/8”-16 thread in the base, Alana can use any of our tripod feet (DocZ included in this kit)
- Large rubber grip at the top is comfortable to use, and includes channels that aid water dispersal
- Grippy rubber O-Pads on the leg locks aid grip and leverage to ensure rigidity when extended
- Spring-loaded dual thread at the top gives a choice of directly mounting a camera or lens to the 1/4”-20 thread, or adding a head or clamp via the 3/8”-16 thread.
3 Legged Thing AirHed Trinity Pan with Tilt Head (Darkness)
Introducing the AirHed Trinity - a compact, multifunctional pan and tilt head that is ideal for video, panoramas, monopods, birding, and scopes. It has a smooth fluid action for ease of use, a full 170˚ range of tilt, 360˚ panning base, 5 kg load capability and a detachable arm that offers users huge versatility.
But that's not all, we are also pairing the AirHed Trinity with our best-selling Punks 2.0 tripods to create the Punks Video range!
AirHed Trinity
- Compact: The AirHed Trinity is a compact size that's ideal for travel but still boasts a load to weight ration of 13:1.
- Detachable Arm: The AirHed Trinity comes with a detachable arm that has a rubber hand grip, for easy control.

Slimline
The Trinity design helps to pack tightly with monopods or travel tripods, and the removable arm gives further scope for easier transportation. The Trinity will pack neatly in with tripods that have counter-fold legs.
Pan & Tilt
The side-locking mechanism and individual pan knob give ultimate control and smooth, precision hydraulic damping, with rigid, unparalleled locking. The panhandle is moulded from silicon for both comfort and handling, helping to displace water for ultimate grip in even the worst conditions.
Fluid Motion
Fluid heads just don’t come this small, but we really wanted to create something compact, with the smooth, comfortable drag of a fluid motion head. This combination of control versus size makes the Trinity an enticing prospect for those with kit limitations due to travel, or those that simply want to carry less.
Arca-Style Clamp
The popularity of Arca-style clamps is unquestionable, with a huge proportion of modern tripod heads sporting this 40-year-old clamp design. Why? Because it works, it’s simple, it’s secure and it’s strong. That’s why we chose our Trinity Clamp to be compatible, and it comes with a matching 38mm standard Arca plate, with adjustable screw for ultimate balancing.
Multi-Genre
The AirHed Trinity was designed to serve multiple purposes and is the ultimate content creation tool for videographers, YouTubers and TikTokers, but it also operates as a brilliant monopod head, with an eye-watering 5 kg payload that can with big lenses for sports and wildlife shooters. Bird watchers and wildlife enthusiasts will enjoy smooth, fluid movements and easy mounting for spotting scopes and binoculars.
