The K-Tek KE-144CC Avalon Series Aluminum Boompole provides a moderately priced, lightweight boompole solution for ENG, EFP and other field recording applications. Its sturdy aluminum design is tough enough to endure the rigors of road use while remaining lightweight and travel worthy. The 5 aluminum sections telescope and collapse (39 to 144"), and will easily store in any standard equipment case. The captive-collet coupling system locks each section in place for even further reliability.
