Y shaped center column
Center column is designed to be Y shaped to reduce the space of the tripod and make the tripod more tight and compact without sacrificing the stability of the tripod.
Tripod with Y-shaped center column is more compact and 3 legs are more tight and more stable than tripod with round center column when the diameter of leg is same.

Lever lock system，One press/one pull to lock/unlock completely. Special-designed spider, compact and light.
4 angles are available
42° setting is perfect for shooting in windy area
Most of the tripods in the market are with only angles including low, middle and high angles. To help photographers who go windy outdoors for shooting, we add a 42° setting to the tripod to make sure that even in windy outdoors, the shooting can still be stable.
Traditional tripod’s middle angle is about 50-60°, which is too big for the shooting and LY tripod was added a 42° to solve this problem.
