Matthews - Gatorbuddy

GTC Sponsor, Matthews Studio Equipment, Gatorbuddy was designed by a photographer as a better way to handle the bounce and fill cards that are a mainstay on photo shoots.  It can also help create instant walls and dividers and be equipped with a laptop for use as a portable viewing station.  Gatorbuddy contains a rugged wheeled base with a low center of gravity that keeps it stable.  With a stable steel base and four Tente caster wheels, Gatorbuddy glides, and swivels then locks safely in place.  Like a dolly, it can help move panels and V-Flats easily in and out to swap backgrounds.

Gatorbuddy ships complete with rolling base, three baby risers, and two V-Flat holders that are attached with three washers, 3 screws, and one pin.  Gator Board / V-Flat not included.
