The Airo Boom Pole 1 has a collapsed length of 3'2.5" (98 cm) and an extended length of 10'10" (330cm) and only weighs 1.6 lbs (735 g). This uncabled aluminum boom pole features four non-rotational sections. The top attachment is a 3/8"-16 male thread and the bottom attachment is made of anodized aluminum; both are removable. Rubberized collars easily lock and unlock with minimal twist movements. Foam grips reduce handling noise and offer comfort during longer takes.
The Airo Boom Pole 1 is a practical tool for most situations when recording sound and the microphone needs to be close to the audio source. The telescoping pole also makes an affordable and solid antenna mast on a sound cart. The ABP1 is uncabled.
