Ok guys, I'm built like a NFL defensive end 6'7" tall. I've been using a vanguard tripod from Cabelas for years. The head wouldn't hold good any more, So I broke down and bought the outdoorsmans pan head. The legs still work and are in decent shape. Just picked up a ATX 85 in the classifieds on here and wondering if I should just go all new. Thinking of going carbon fiber but don't know if the slik 634 will be tall enough? What other quality taller tripods are out there? Is lightweight carbon fiber prone to blowing over in the wind? Should I just man up and buy the outdoorsmans tall with the extended center post or keep what I already have? I'm not doing back country trips but some up to 3 miles. Thanks in advance guys.
