Product Description

The Matthews Hi-Hi Overhead Stand Wide Base with Leveling Leg is engineered for filmmakers, grips, and content creators who need maximum stability when flying large Butterflies, Overheads, diffusion frames, or backdrops—especially outdoors or on uneven terrain. Its wide, wheel-free base offers a firm, immovable foundation, making it ideal for windy locations, dirt, gravel, hillsides, or surfaces where casters aren't appropriate. Built from all-steel tubes and legs, this stand delivers Matthews’ signature durability and strength. The evolving height range makes it perfect for supporting large textiles or heavy modifiers when mobility isn't required but stability is critical. At the top, the stand features the iconic 4.5" Grip Head (Lollipop)—with dual 3/8" and 5/8" holes, serrated plates, a Magic Gasket, and heavy-duty locking collars that grip with absolute confidence. Combined with the built-in leveling leg, it provides a stable and safe overhead support solution anywhere your production takes you. Whether you're flying a 20x20 diffusion in the desert, supporting a backdrop on uneven terrain, or bracing a large overhead outdoors, this wide-base stand is built to hold strong, rig safely, and last for years of professional use.
