Did any of the commenters go to the website? I doubt it, this tripod has some very unique features compared to everyone's favorite. The Op didn't ask you to tell him what tripod you use, he asked you to look at this new/different travel tripod.
I have the PD Travel tripod, along with many others, and I am going to sell it and buy one of these new tripods.
Thanks for posting.

Maybe I am missing your point, but I cannot look through a 500mm lens and see any action with my other eye. Which I always keep open when photographing.

For those of you that have or still use a red dot gun sight installed on your camera shoe, how do you determine if your autofocus has locked in on your subject?
I use a red dot sight when photographing my granddaughter playing lacrosse. I am sitting in the stands of the football stadium and use a Nikon 500mm f/4 lens and D5 camera mounted on a monopod and monopod gimbal. I set the sight on something across the field and make sure it is aligned with the single point focus on my camera.
Using the red dot allows me to see the action as it is unfolding and get the shots you "cannot" see coming just looking through the lens. Back button focus goes into action as I keep the red dot sight on my granddaughter. Using bursts at 11 fps I get a lot of great photographs.

Yesterday another front came in dropping snow and lowering temperatures. This morning began at 27 degrees F. but the sun was out and low wind. Therefore, the crew suited up and we were out.
Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Mike,
Your second photo is "spectacular." I just love how the sky and clouds look three dimensional. You could save that sky and use it with any foreground to make another spectacular photo.
Keep warm,

I do some of the sports photography for the University of Hawaii at Hilo teams. I've always been fascinated about the mental and physical acuity that is required during a game from the pitchers. I've pulled a few frames from my files from last season here. Also a bonus softball photo at the end.
Nice action photos.
My grandson is a catcher for Hawaii Pacific University. I will be there in the spring to watch him play.
Taking baseball photos is a lot of fun, especially if they are your grandson(s).

Very nice. The last one would have been great had you told the bird to take off coming toward you.
Jeff,
Thanks for your comments. I will try telling the bird which direction to proceed, wouldn’t that be great if it would work.

Great shots of the Harriers and Ducks! It looks like you're enjoying your Z9 and making good use of your 500mm pf. I got my Z9 a a few months ago and have really been enjoying it as well.
Steve,
I am enjoying the new camera, still so much to learn. I am really pleased the 500 pf works so well. I am not ready to spend a lot on new glass when I have a room full of "F" mount lenses. I think my transition to "Z" glass is going to be a slow but steady process.
Thanks for your comments.

Really well done with the Marsh Harrier. Especially the male!! I have yet to get one!
Thanks Chief,
I usually don't notice if it is a male, I just shoot photos of the bird, then it just appears as I review the photos for the day.
Thanks for your comments.

Nice blue hour shot.
Thanks for your comments and for starting this thread. Appreciating where you are, not just where you are going, is great philosophy to follow.
Thanks for your reminder and photo.
