Last year Porta-Jib introduced the Explorer, a new lightweight all-in-one Jib Arm-Dolly-Trolley System. The key to the Explorer's unique design is the dovetail clamping system. Spring-loaded pins to make secure connections with the rails. This allows quick assembly and disassembly without tools. The Explorer features a double parallelogram design. Eliminate the need to carry metal weights by using the weight bucket. The entire jib assembly can pivot and transform into a 6 foot double rail for trolley shots. It only takes a few minutes to go from jib shot to a trolley shot with the Explorer system. Click here to visit our website and see the video demonstrating how quick and easy it is.

I thought I’d jot down a few comments about my new Porta-Jib Explorer. Wow! What a well thought out, masterly crafted piece of equipment. It is very obvious a lot of brainpower went into its planning and design. I really like the fact that all the pieces “clip” together as well as tighten. This makes building it very speedy and solid.

The weight bucket is a fabulous idea! No need to carry around extra weight when out on location. Accessories, bottles of water, rocks, anything... counterbalance is easy (and actually kind of fun in that respect).

The switch over to trolley mode could not be any more simple in design or execution; quick and easy – particularly thanks to the gas piston that aids in lifting and lowering the whole set-up.
