88 lbs? That sounds wildly over-rated, particularly for the price they are asking. B&H offers it, but NO reviews yet on the Ball Head (which I find suspicious). Amazon has their tripods, but not their ball heads. By the way, their tripods have only a few ratings, but range from 3 to 3-1/2 stars out of 5.
I'm still pining for an ArcaTech GV2, perhaps the last piece of gear that I really *need*.
