Crafted of the same high-density graphite fiber used in the K-Tek Klassic line, Avalon boom poles are designed to meet the needs of ENG and DV Camera crews. The series offers many of the same benefits of the original Klassic boom poles in an affordable package -- eliminating some deluxe features but without sacrificing any of the K-Tek quality. All poles feature the same high-reliability collars and unique "captive collet" coupling system -- telescoping sections lock in place securely and easily.
