Streamline Docking Bracket

The GAD1 will work with the 1.580″ O.D. and smaller center post size. The GAD1 and the GAD2 have the same features. The GAD1 has a smaller width fork and will only accept the 1.580″ below I.D. docking rings. If you have a Pro sled with a 1.500″ post size and think you will be upgrading to a 2″ post in the future, I would suggest buying the GAD2. That way you will only need to purchase a different size docking ring. Also reintroduced for the Mag-Dock. This will integrate into what you already are using. The GAD2 larger version of the GAD1. This accommodates the all the post sizes. As before the same great features are still inter-graded the key features are, no aircraft pin, automatically locks the sled in place, securely holds the sled from flopping from side to side when changing magazines or lenses, the docking ring can be positioned right under the top stage, the post never touches the fork when docking, the Gorelock1 & 2 has a built in 2 degree angle, the sled can be rotated in the fork for adjustments, blue release levers are on both sides for ambidextrous operation, two handed control on the sled when mounting and dismounting.

New Streamline balance bracket that is user friendly. Here you go Pro owners! Spin balance on the docking bracket. No more setting up the dolly or extinction arms. And 3A owners, no more turning the docking bracket around to balance the sled. Spin or static balance can be achieved of any sled with this new design. No more banging of the arm and the tools getting in the way when turning the docking bracket around as before, not to mention holding the rig and trying to do this at the same time. This balance bracket solves allot of the headaches. To balance the sled simply un-dock from the Gorelock and pull the balancing post towards you and position the gimbal on the stud and spin or static balance. When done remove from stud and slide balancing post to the rear and dock the sled. The balancing post can be used to hang the vest when not in the balance mode.The blue knob is for setting the tension or drag on the balancing post. There are two 5/8″ C-stand clamps to choose from. Designed for 5/8″ baby stud light stand or c-stands. (Will not work with 1/2″ lite-weight light stands). The forward position will be used 90% of the time. The second position are those few times when you need more clearance between the stand and the sled, like low mode. Use your 5/32″ or 4mm  T-handle to clamp bracket onto stand.
