Ventilation and Padding for Camera Support Systems: StediCam, Ready Rig, Walter Klassen FLEX Harness, Slingshot Rig 2.0

Some of our favorite moments here at the shop come when customers show us how they are using our IceAge Ecosystem in ways we never imagined. Today, we want to share one that we think is particularly awesome: using IceVents® to greatly improve comfort for camera operators on movie and television sets!

As it turns out, camera support systems like Stedicam, Ready Rig, FLEX Harness and Slingshot Rig 2.0 from Walter Klassen function almost identically to a plate carrier. This makes them idea candidates for IceVents® ventilated padding functionality.

Adding IceVents® Classic to a Stedicam is actually super easy. Below are setup photos from our customer @sann974 who shared these photos with us from his home in France!

"We just discovered that your IceVent pad was absolutely perfect for our Stedicam vest!"
