Loren, in regards to backpain and Easyrigs, I had the same issue, where even with the vest waist straps super tight it's still a bit lose. What I can reocmmend is getting a windbag / air wedge liek shown in the picture below and place that in the middle of your back at waist height. Then have the AC pump it up to your liking. Massive improvement 

 

Hey guys, 

I’m looking to buy a new set of Gold Mount batteries and currently between the Anton Bauer Titon 150 and the Beebob 150 micro. 
Both have the same mount and capacity but are quite a difference in weight and size. 
Titon = 1.09KG
Beebob = 0.77kg 

I’m wondering if anyone has experience with each or either and what would make more sense, especially going forward? Part of me thinks having heavier batteries will come in handy with the balancing? 
I’m currently aiming to start out with a Zephyr rig with dual battery mount and down the line step up to a full sized rig. 

Hey guys,

looking for a 2nd battery mount for a Zephyr rig, preferably located in the UK or Europe but open to offers from overseas. 
 

Hey guys, 

I’m literally just starting out my steadicam journey and came across an offer that has the Exovest, A30 arm and Aero 30 for a pretty good price compared to what it would cost new. I’m wondering if this rig would be a good option to start practicing at home without having to go to a rental every time? I’m really trying to get the hours in to get the basics down. I read somewhere that learning on a more lightweight sled/rig is transferable to bigger rigs and might even help as a bigger/heavier rig is a bit more forgiving?

I know the A30 arm and Aero 30 Sled will quite quickly be maxed out for use on actual shoots, but I could update/replace those when I get there. The Exovest I could keep using. I’m yet to check out the different vests in general to see which suits me best. But in case I like the Exovest, do you guys think this could be a good step?

Hey guys, 

I was wondering if it is possible to switch the mounting socket for the arm on an Exovest from the lightweight one to the normal one? 
I have the chance to buy the vest with an A30 arm for a pretty good price but would want to switch the socket to use it with an G50x or G70x arm quite soon. 
Is that possible and what part would I need to buy/how much would that cost me roughly? 

Trying to see if I can actually save money or if buying the “replacement part” would mean I can just buy the vest new with the right socket.
