    hello colleague. Hello from Russia. it's a pity that you didn't make a video from the side to see how much both devices absorb vibrations. At the moment, I am using armor man 3, but I do not like that it is very heavy and I do not like its build quality. I am looking for support for the back that can absorb the steps as much as possible and bring it closer to the steadicam. I also want to keep my back healthy. can you write your thoughts on this subject?

      Hi! I have another, more thorough video that compares the GLink to my Ready Rig. This was a very fast test I did with my friend who has a Slingshot, and the camera battery was dying when we shot this, unfortunately, and I forgot to bring spares. 🤦🏻‍♂️ I find the stabilization of Slingshot and Ready Rig to be similar when it comes to footsteps though. The GLink is the closest I've gotten to Steadicam when it comes to stability and reduction of body movement.
      I've used the Armorman 3 briefly, and I did not find it as comfortable as the Ready Rig, Slingshot, or the GLink. I also didn't really get a big chance to see what I could do with it as a stabilizer, but I think the GLink is much better in this regard. There are more axes of stabilization, and the vest is much higher quality. I'm still waiting for an additional mid-back-pad that is coming for the GLink, which is where I'd like to have more support. Currently, I've done really long takes with the Ready Rig, over an hour long, and so far have maxed out at around 30 minutes with the GLink at a time, but I'm still getting used to it.
      Look for my other video comparing it to Ready Rig if you're really interested, or join the Facebook Group for Flowcine GLink Operators

      Yes, I've watched almost all of your videos on this channel. keep doing it! you are very informative. I have a friend who also has a slingshot, I hope to make a comparison with armor man 3 this month.
      and thank you for your quick response.
      also I'm thinking of replacing it with g-link

      @@gfuterfas Thanks so much for these videos. I’m right on the edge of pre-ordering a GLINK. When you say maxed out in 30 minutes, where on your body do you start feeling pain/exhaustion vs the Ready Rig? My lower back isn’t in great shape and I really want to make sure I’m making the right decision with GLINK.
