Vortex high county modified take off 1 sections of legs I paid less than 100 off of eBay
Not sure what you mean cbond, but certainly if life pulls the tripod budget away from me, I'll go on being happy with my vortex or my old but beloved manfrotto 4 pounder.
Unless stepping well beyond this budget, I find the slik634 mandrotto 700rc2 combo VERY hard to beat
surui isn't more stable than your ss-p I would say in that weight range you are wanting you wont find a tripod more stable. I would just upgrade the head.

My goal is a more stable viewing platform, especially in wind. Stiffness seems like it would help a lot, but maybe just learning to use the weight hook is the best approach?
