Triad-Orbit SB-1 Starbird Super Boom Stand

The Triad-Orbit SB-1 Starbird puts a super boom with a 98.5-inch maximum reach on a rolling stand that rises to 102.25 inches.

Its cast iron base has legs that swivel and tuck under the base for storage, and the legs can be set in offset positions for small rooms and tight spaces. The base rolls on Triad TC studio casters, which are dual-bearing and dual-locking.

Release the mid clutch on the riser tubes, and the pneumatic lift raises the stand. The main swivel is built on the Orbit 2 center swivel, and a safety stop spring pin secures the boom.

An adjustable ballast counterweight opens fully to take optional shot bags for more weight. The SB-1 is iO quick-change compatible and includes the OA ball joint for 360 degrees of mic adjustment.

The tubes are 2 mm 6063 T5 aluminum, and the base footprint ranges from 18 to 38.5 inches. The boom takes a recommended 9 lb at full extension or 16 lb at half extension, and the stand weighs 66 lb.
