Geosystems Situational Awareness Mast (aka Zippermast)

An ingenious method of lifting a camera much farther than any standard boom or scissor lift could.  I’ll add this to the list of things to try someday.

UPDATE: Travis points us to the original post with a lot more detail. I’ve updated the link above and embedded a higher quality vid from Vimeo.  Thanks!
