ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for stabilizing the legs of a tripod includes a center member that is placed inside and proximate the legs preferably about mid-length. The center member includes three perimeter assemblies that each cooperate with a corresponding leg member. The center member is secured to each leg by the leg member which is either attached to each leg or which passes around each leg and is then secured to each perimeter assembly. When each perimeter assembly is tightened, the center member is urged upwards where it pushes all of the legs outward while each leg member prevents one of the legs from moving outward. Accordingly, each leg is placed in a tension that increases its stability and hence the stability of the tripod.
