Sport Carbon Performance Tripod
It’s been a long time since a truly innovative tripod has come to market. With the
introduction of the G1155T, or Traveler Gitzo has introduced a whole new concept to
the world of tripods. Designed for users who want to take a very lightweight full size
tripod with them when they travel, this tripod will accommodate digital and compact
cameras as well as lightweight camcorders. Due to its unique design, the Traveler
doesn’t compete with any other tripod on the market.
The Traveler is the most compact carbon fiber tripod in the world. When opened, it
is as tall a standard Gitzo tripod, but thanks to its ground-breaking 180° folding
mechanism, it is 25% shorter than standard when folded. Available in Series 1 models,
the Traveler fits perfectly in hand luggage and is ideal for photographers on the move.

FEATURES
◆ Lightweight and compact 5-section tripod
with grooved rapid column, designed to fit
into hand luggage
◆ Unique 180° folding legs alows the 2.2 lbs
tripod to fold down to 14.2” yet expand to
57.5” when fully extended
◆ Made of Carbon 2, an all new six-layer tube
construction process makes it stronger then
existing carbon, yet 15% lighter. Also pro-
vides greater capacity to absorb vibrations
and withstand fatigue.
◆ The legs are assembled using Gitzo’s "H.I.S.,"
a dual "screw thread and glue" jointing tech-
nology that provides greater durability and
reliability than alternative methods
◆ Has a new center column-locking collar
found above the tripod. Adjusting the collar
is fast and easy and it also improves stability.
◆ It only takes seconds to open and secure the
tripod with the new Anti-Leg-Rotation
(ALR) system. Just loosen all twist locks at
the same time and pull down the leg before
tightening the twist locks, making setup a
mere 15 seconds.
◆ Polymer Bushings can be used in river beds
all day long without adverse effect on lock-
ing mechanism
◆ Stabilizing hooks that use to take up space
and snag on clothing or equipment are no
longer a problem. A redesigned built-in,
spring-loaded, retractable accessory hook
provides a place to hang equipment, such as
camera, sand or water bags, on the bottom
of the center column.
◆ Includes G1077M Magnesium center ball head, so no additional
expense for a head is necessary. When closed, the head is
protected under folded legs.
◆ The Traveler also is built with Gitzo’s anti-rotation grooved
center column. The center column-locking collar makes it easier
to adjust the column quickly.
