after wife telling me my head should be in line with my neck/ spine,  i tried and it released heaps of load off my wrists which made tripod much easier. however the video looks like he's carrying most weight on his hands.  can i assume that's the point of tripod - to put weight on hands20170623_214311.thumb.jpg.c5898de036ced210b6557024664ac62b.jpg with a little help from one's head?

Hi @Jason Schumacher,

The weight should be balanced between the head and the hands/shoulders. Yes aligning the head with spine will help more on control and stabilization of your tripod. Mobility looks good as long as you make sure that the elbows are locked. Keep working on it and please send a video next time for form check :)
