I bought the YC Onion Pineta last year. Very well made. Unfortunately haven't used it much, 2-3 times. Bit of a regret purchase. Buying a tripod and a fold-up tripod dolly were much more used purchases. Thanks for this review I had saved in a playlist at the time of pre-purchase.
Vidpro MP-66 monopod has one hand release feature at $99. That was the only monopod I could find with one-touch release. Happy to see YC Onion Pineta. It looks sturdier than Vidpro.
Interchangeable between the Cobra 2 and the Pineta, you mean? I did check and they're proprietary fittings/mechanisms, so you can't use one brand's monopod post with the other's feet, or vice versa.

The new improvements of the cobra 3 make this an even harder choice. The updates are quite compelling.
Very true - I'm hoping to get my hands on a Cobra 3 soon to compare.

No problem, everyone has different shooting styles and preferences - monopods have their pros and cons.

Can't say I'm familiar with that model, but the Pineta is definitely stable/sturdy compared to other models.
You sound like mandark dexter lab lol good video
haha. I think that's the first I've heard that comparison made, thanks.
I have the cobra 2 feet and haven't bought the next section yet. the fitting looks the same. so are they interchangeable?

Check my other video comparing Manfrotto vs. iFootage monopods, I'll likely have another one soon on the way too..

Yep, didn't have it at the time I made the video. There may be a follow-up though at some point...

Yeah, you pay a premium for premium products, for sure.
