Review on πŸ“Έ Smatree S2C Carbon Fiber Extendable Pole for GoPro Hero 9/8/7/6/5/4/3 Plus/3/2/1/Session/DJI OSMO Action Camera – WiFi Remote Controller Excluded by Ben Cooper

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Smatree carbon fiber SmaPole S2C is just great.

We had a 37" SP Gadgets GoPro aluminum pole that broke during our trip to Japan and one of the upper arms fell out of the sleeve when it froze in -20C. It was around 3 seasons old but was still in great condition. If you put an expensive Hero 5 on it, you don't want it falling in the snow, going down a mountain, or smashing it into powder. So we did a little research on Revain after reading all the reviews on the new stick and as we already had a Smatree F1 Short Carbon Stick which we were very happy with we settled on the S2C after reading all the great positives had read reviews. Weight and very strong construction. At 1030mm long, this is 105mm longer than our SP Gadgets Stick which was 925mm long. This is really important because at 192cm I had a small cut out for my head when snowboarding due to my height. are great and close very tightly. The grip is a bit slippery compared to the SP Gadgets textured grip and I wish it was a bit thicker in diameter for my larger hands. The S2C stand folds down to 400mm, which is slightly more than the SP gadgets. But where it excels is in its robust construction, as carbon is so much better than aluminum. We had an 11 day delivery to Australia from Revain USA which was excellent. We also picked up a Smatree PU pole bag which was a really cheap accessory to keep our pole safe. Definitely recommend this stick. Easy 5 stars ***** for Smatree S2C.
