The HI-POD is the preeminent aerial videography system in the world of Soccer. From the LX21 to the X31, Hi-Pod knows how to film. We have been the exclusive videographer for the U.S. Soccer Development Academy and Showcases for over five years. Unlike with many sports, soccer teams rarely practice in an official stadium. You often will find the best athletes playing in the middle of a field without a bleacher in sight. Being so, there is no other way to capture high quality elevated video for analysis or player highlight reels. The HI-POD changes that.
Domestic and international teams have recognized the value of our system. Clubs like NY Red Bulls, LA Galaxy, Manchester United, Bayern Munich FC, Real Salt Lake, Colorado Rapids, Arsenal FC, Portland Timbers, Aston Villa, Zenit, and Ajax (among many others) have all brought the HI-POD into their organizations.
With the ability to not only use the HI-POD as the 31ft X-Line, but also as the 17ft Mobile, we give you the flexibility to handle any situation. The X-Line can be packed into two cases for your on-the-go team schedule. Traveling is made simple and efficient whether you’re on a car, plane, or bus.
The HI-POD will work with nearly any camera (under 10 lbs), which means you can keep up with technology as often as you want. It is not only an advanced system, but it’s very natural and intuitive to control. You move the position of the camera by turning the handle mechanism at the bottom of the base. The two are linked via a pair of cords running from the handle up to the head. In this way, the unit operates much like a ‘pulley system.’ There is no lag time or missed goal shots while the camera is tracking in – as there almost always is on cheaper, exclusively robotic systems. This is a huge advantage because you don’t have to guess where the action is going to be ahead of time. Something happens, and you’re there…instantly.
With over twenty years in the industry you can depend on HI-POD to consistently deliver for your team. Our long-term track record, extensive client list, and excellent support system back this up every day.
It has never been easier to have a HI-POD of your own. Please visit our ‘Contact’ page if you would like more information.
