Cool looking product but worried what accessories do they think we can successfully mount that close to each other?!

Good question... the idea might be to either use just the top center shoe, or just the top left and right shoes... not sure that you could fit three things across the top row there.

Looks cool. Makes me want to use it as a top handle though, which makes me wonder if it would be safe to mount something so big on the shoe. I'd be a little concern that something might break or bend.

I bought a similar product a while back and ran into the issue where the accessories were to large to be mounted next to each other. Regardless it's quite an interesting product, especially from Beachtek.

A shovel type of handle at last.
Now I can pick my rig up with ease - and possibly destroy my cam's hot shoe by doing that. T |

I was tempted to buy this and use it as a handle as well.
