osa Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 One suggestion is a slightly different item that can serve the same purpose https://www.quickfist.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allistair Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 The product brand name is Toolflex. Lots of places have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundtrane Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 QUICKFIST is a lot better than the one in the photo... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olle Sjostrom Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 I own the toolflex, and there's been more than one incident of the boom pole falling out of it. Luckily nothing broke because of it, but it's not what you want from a holder. Get the quickfist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Constantin Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 With the Toolflex you need to bear in mind that they come in different sizes. The ones I found for my boom are such a tight fit that I can move my cart around with them. You need a special technique to get the boom in and out. IME far more secure hold than quickfists.

Olle Sjostrom Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 The thing with quickfist is that it has a flap that crosses the hole where you put the pole, so the risk of it falling is minimized. With my (I might have used the wrong size then) tool flex holder, all it takes is a little bump or yank and the pole falls off. I used a nite ize gear tie to hold the boom down in the toolflex holder, but that isn't very quick or elegant.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCorl Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 This exact model you can also get at The Container Store, that is where I got mine for my Rock n' Roller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shastapete Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 That's my boom cart! MikeCorl is correct, that particular item came from the container store, though there are many like it. After using that on my little cart for a number of years, I've added a velcro strap that hooks over the front of the clip. The boom is secure when the cart is stationary, but if I hit any bumps wheeling it around the boom can (and has) bounced out, so the strap adds some needed security. I also have quickfists on another cart – they are much more secure, but you can't single handed stow the boom, so I feel they both have their place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
