Can't find much info about this new product but it seems pretty interesting.
1. Height 2.8m which makes it really useful as a jib and gimbal extender.
2. iSpeedy.
Fotopro has a patented locking system called iSpeedy. How it is implemented in the AK-64 monopod is quite unique as demonstrated in this video

2. However in this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQShzWiubUo), it seems iSpeedy is not implemented in the same way on their tripods. Instead the lock release is in the feet rather than on the top section. Not unlike Velbon's Ultra series.
The video also does not demonstrate if the locking mechanism can be operated from the topmost segment of the monopod.
Anyone has any experience with Fotopro iSpeedy?
