Product Description

This innovative waterproof travel tripod caters to adventurous outdoor photographers needing a rugged all-weather support system for their camera gear. The Hydra 2 waterproof tripod provides maximum stability, in a compact, reverse-folding design, perfect for the traveling photographer.

With its reverse folding design, the Hydra2 folds down to an impressive 16.7 inches, yet it reaches a maximum height of 60.2 inches with the center column extended. A unique carbon fiber weave maximizes the strength-to-weight ratio while remaining stealth out in the field. Its waterproof leg locks and feet make this tripod truly ready for the elements, wherever your shot takes you.

It features 5-sections, supporting a maximum load of 37.5 lbs. The metal twist locks can be used in any environment with maximum functionality. They’re also dust resistant, and oversized so there’s no need to remove your gloves when the cold weather hits. Engineered for stability at any angle, our three-stop adjustable leg locks, and independent leg spread, provide lower angles and maximum stability. The oversized CNC machined center column locking collar makes it easy to secure the center column in any vertical position.

With interchangeable rubber feet and stainless-steel spikes, you can enhance your stability on any terrain. The built-in bubble level helps maintain a level shot. While the attached weight hook helps maximize your tripod’s stability.

There are three built-in Allen keys on these tripods. one located in the rubber foot for adjusting the tension of the leg stop locks on the spider. The other two are on the weight hook, one is used to tighten down the set screw on the flat base, and the other is used to remove the accessory screw on the spider. The accessory mount provides additional mounting flexibility. The Hydra 2 also includes a tool kit, drawstring bag, and carrying case for storage.

I cannot say enough good things about Pixel Connection. I've bought multiple camera bodies - new and used - from them, along with several lenses, and they simply cannot be beat. Super helpful on the phone, good prices, and willing to work with customers to make the right solution happen. Pixel Connection is where I look first when buying camera equipment.

I am a cosmetic dentist so my photography is very important to me. I needed my camera set up for ease of use and custom settings. Jesse and Sam are so knowledgeable. Those two men helped me quickly and the Pixel store is open until 7 pm so I was able to get this done before my next working day! I also noticed Pixel has everything one needs for cameras, video and audio, social media, drones and even film! Check this store out for yourself for quality service and products!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My latest experience with ThePixelConnection was absolutely phenomenal. Matt and Ari went above and beyond to ensure I got the camera I needed, even when it seemed impossible. The item I needed was out of stock everywhere else, but they didn’t stop there—they took the extra step to contact the manufacturer directly and managed to secure a new unit straight from the factory. Thanks to their incredible effort, I received my camera just in time for an important event. What truly sets ThePixelConnection apart is the personal touch they bring to every interaction. Unlike my experiences with B&H—which, while efficient and resourceful, often feel very clinical and transactional—ThePixelConnection makes you feel like a genuinely valued customer. I’ve worked with B&H for years and spent a small fortune with them, but if ThePixelConnection has what I need, they’re always my first choice. Their team is passionate, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to ensuring you get exactly what you’re looking for. Matt, in particular, is a seasoned professional with extensive expertise in photography and their product lineup. His guidance and dedication made the entire process effortless and stress-free. If you’re looking for exceptional service from a team that truly values its customers, look no further than ThePixelConnection. They’ve earned my loyalty, and I can’t recommend them highly enough!
