The minimal, versatile, handheld tripod.

SwitchPod is lightweight, compact, and nearly indestructible tripod. It will save you valuable time between shots so you can focus more on shooting and less on messing with your gear.

No, but seriously, the SwitchPod is an awesome invention and I'm excited to have this sleek versatile tripod. I give Caleb and Pat a ton of credit for the design thoughtfulness they put into the SwitchPod!

Pros:

It's not the stupid Gorilla pod.

Cons:

I can't have it for a few more months 😂

I've tested out multiple prototypes - can't wait to get my hands on the real thing. Plus, I love the addition of mounting holes for extra pieces of gear!

Pros:

99% of the time, I use my gorillapod in two ways - handheld and tripod mode. For those use cases, the SwitchPod does a better/faster job.

Cons:

Boosted board not included

What an oversight by us! Should have had a boosted board tier. 😉

As somebody who made physical products for years (jiu jitsu gis), I can adequately understand ALL of the work that went into this project. Congrats to @calebwojcik and @patflynn on making all the smart steps they could and still taking the risk of putting this out into the world. I'm stoked to see they're at $153k as of the time I'm writing this!

@patflynn @brendan_hufford Thank you Brendan. We waited until we had the product as close to ready as possible before launching it on a crowdfunding site, which gave us plenty of time to build buzz, show it to influencers, and capture it on camera.

@patflynn @calebwojcik I bet being that patient was a killer at times, especially coming from the digital world where things can be made so much faster. Great work.

Love the concept, will be checking it out! Would be nice if this design could be adapted to a taller monopod / legs that extend for standing/talking shots.

@trellwest Thanks for that feedback Trell! We've received a ton of potential ideas for where we could take this in the future. Focusing on version 1.0 for now, but you're amazing. Thank you!

Really exciting to see @patflynn launch his first physical product. This will be a ground breaking tool that every vlogger and video content creator should have. So excited to get my hands on one this August. Good luck with this one.

@boris_sapozhnikov Thank you Boris! It's been a fun ride and have been learning so much. Definitely did not do this alone though - my partner @calebwojcik and I are a great team and couldn't have done this without the other. Let's see where this takes us!

Pretty excited to see this come to life for @patflynn. One of those ideas that's so simple when you see it in action, but no one executed on it previously. Looking forward to replacing my Joby Gorillapod with this as soon as it ships

@crypto_bobby Thank you so much! The response has been INCREDIBLE! Thank you for your support Rob, and big shout out to my partner @calebwojcik for being equally (if not more!) involved in the process! Oh, and to the engineering team and support from Prouduct!

I’m really excited to see this come to life. As a YouTuber who is constantly fussing with a GorillaPod - a stable, packable, lightweight tripod like this is going to be a tool I use nearly every day for making videos. Congrats guys!
