While C-stands have been around since the dawn of the movie industry, what makes the black Matthews 40" C-Stand with Sliding Leg, Grip Head, and Arm special is its sliding third leg, alternatively called a "lazy" or "Rocky Mountain" leg. Whatever you call it, the leg can be positioned anywhere on the riser to stabilize the stand, work around obstructions like stairs, or deal with tight spaces. The stand rises to a height of 10.5' and can support gear weighing up to 22 lb. The large T-handles provide a secure grip.
