Hey gang, Travis here with one last big offer for 2019! This is a product that I’ve gotten a ton of inquiries about. Ergorig and Undersling!

A great Group Buy was run on Ergorig earlier this summer by Chris McKechnie who did an awesome job as usual. But I thought there was an opportunity to run it again for three reasons.

1. Ergorig is gaining in popularity and a lot of users who weren’t aware of it in June have now had the opportunity to see it or use it in person and adoption continues to grow rapidly.

2. Our GB has a max discount of 25% on both Ergorig and Undersling! So we’ve unlocked the potential for a HUGE discount and I wanted to offer REDusers the opportunity to take advantage of that.

3. And speaking of Undersling, we are now offering Undersling as an optional add-on to all Ergorig purchases here as well as an upgrade accessory to anyone who already owns an Ergorig. You don’t have to buy an Ergorig in this GB to pickup Undersling at a huge discount!

So that said, let’s move forward with a few questions!

Q. What is Ergorig?

A. Well first of all, it won Best Camera Support Tech at Cinegear in 2019! So it’s a brand new way to support your camera without being tethered to the camera itself. The idea is to prevent spinal compression without affecting the ability of the operator to be flexible and reframe as quickly as they normally would while shoulder-mounting or going handheld. Ergorig allows you to transfer 100% of the weight of the camera rig to your hips which saves your spine! If anyone here has shot as much reality/docu-series as I have, you know that saving your spine is one of the biggest concerns any operator has. We want to be working next year too, not just today! Ergorig is one of the finest solutions for adding to your health that I’ve come across in 10 years of working in film/TV.


A. I already have an Easyrig, why do I need this too?

I too own an Easyrig Vario 5 and love it…with certain setups! But there are times when I want to be untethered or am working with a smaller camera setup and don’t want to be strapped in to a large vest with a support arm. Ergorig is a solution that ADDS TO, instead of replaces my Easyrig. In the end, camera aks is all about options. How can I give myself more options in the field? Ergorig and Undersling are a great way to add to my stable for those jobs where I want support without the size and weigh requirements of my EZ rig.

Q: What is Undersling?

A: Check out this great video by No Film School demoing the new Undersling attachment for Ergorig!

Now onto the deal!

This group buy starts right now and runs until January 13th at midnight. There is no limit to the amount of units that can be purchased at these prices so please tell your friends so they don’t miss out. Again with this Ergorig group buy you can purchase the Ergorig itself and add Undersling OR simply add Undersling if you’ve already purchased Ergorig elsewhere. Thanks so much to our friends at Adorama and Ergorig for helping us put together this amazing deal.

Remember, PM me with your email/phone info to get on the list. Then comment in the thread or PM me your order and we'll follow up with order info soon! PLEASE don't make me chase you down for your email info. That is how you order. Just in general, if there's a group buy on REDuser, you need to make sure the host has your contact info. This is up to you to provide or you won't get contacted when it comes time to purchase, thanks!

Tiers are as follows.

Ergorig $1850
GB IS CLOSED

Undersling $750
GB IS CLOSED

All orders come with free shipping to the lower 48. If we reach our goal early, I’ll begin sending out the coupon codes and ordering instructions so please share this deal with your friends so we can hit the top tier and everyone can order before the end of 2019 to save on some taxes!

Right now we are looking at a 2-4 week time frame for everyone to receive their Ergorig and Undersling. That is 2-4 weeks from the day you order. There’s a chance you’ll get your unit even sooner as well if you are part of the first wave of orders.*If you’ve followed any of my previous group buys, you’ll know that customer service and satisfaction is VERY important to me and that I will personally fix any issues you have along the way!

As always, orders ship in the order of payment received. Thanks in advance for your participation and sharing the buy!

Can we see a walking shot made with this rig?
I'm not a big fan of putting the weight on the hips as they will change the camera ballance on every step. I would like to see how it works out.
 
Add me to the masterlist for the ergorig and underslung.

FYI - My name is spelled wrong on the forum. It is Nick Czerula, Thanks

No walking shots?

This (or easy rig) isn't made for shoulder camera work
It takes the load of the camera to your hips. It's made for "hips camera work".
If you want to make shoulder work you have to change your camera rig so it does works.
They are some monsters out there that serves as camera but aren't made for shoulder work.
I find it interesting for higher camera level shooting though (like for basket ball player). But you turn yourself in a higher human tripod.
You won't have any shoulder problem with this... but if you don't get that load off your body you will have problems with other parts of your body like knees...

Seems like you're looking to get into a debate about this and I have zero interest in that. If you don't feel this accessory is a great fit for you, then why don't you move on? There are a lot of people who incorporate the accessories you're criticizing into their workflow successfully but that doesn't mean that you have to be one of them! Personally, I prefer the Ergorig for walking shots as there's no cable attached to the cam rig that can float or sway. Remember, it's not a gimbal.

You're not going to get gimbal shots with Ergorig as they are completely different tools.

Do you have any walking shot ?
I'm considering it as a new tool. That's all.
