I was there today.

I can vouch for how delightfully light they are... and that they will make your wallet feel lighter too if you buy them

Went to the website but afraid they didn't give the most important information - the load factors of the tripods, monopod and the ball-heads. Without this info, it's impossible to evaluate whether these tripods/monopods are value for money.
