The honesty and awesomeness has made me love the video, but the comment "who puts two plastic shit clamps in a kit like this" - sir, you have my sub. I love the honesty, I'm in!
Thank you, that line was not in the script but so true. We like being able to give honest opinions and not trying to kiss ass to get sponsors. We spend a ton of money on stuff because it had rave reviews that were just people blowing smoke in our faces to get paid or earn commissions. Too many people telling everyone that products are great when they suck.
@@mrdogpoopstudioscouldn't agree more man. We're not a studio that is sponsored by any means so we have to buy everything out of pocket, and when it's lack luster (to say the least) the rage builds
Just got the kit without the case and it is just beautiful. gonna be testing it out tomorrow. cant wait. liked and subscribed. very good review and I laughed multiple times. thanks for making this and keep going Mr. Dog Poop
You will not regret it, the quality is amazing. But I see now they have raised the price to $1299. I am glad I got mine when it was cheaper. Just a note, Vaxis does sell other parts that I did not know about including safety or anti top pieces. www.vaxisglobal.com/Grip-Dolly-c917820.html I ordered the ones with wheels and the under slung adapters but still have not received them yet. They also have more attachments but I can't find them for sale anyplace.
@@mrdogpoopstudios yeah I found the site last night after wondering where to get underslung parts since it’s not on MOVMax site. Will definitely be getting all the accessories.
@@Filmgoblin So there are more parts as well if you contact the US Vaxis dealer in LA. I have not seen any of the accessories for sale online. But they are calling the grip dolly a platform and plan to make many more accessories for it. They have attachments to make it a High Hat to use off tracks for static shots. I think they will keep developing new toys for it.
@@mrdogpoopstudios yeah I love that idea of having a whole ecosystem for the movmax and it not just being an alternative to a Dana Dolly. I’ll have to contact the dealer to check out the other accessories. Me and my brother spent hours testing it yesterday and it is fantastic.
Please, do a video comparing a Dana Dolly style slider to just a regular slider. Might be comparable in price on in features. Obviously they are very different but I wonder what are the key differences when compared in real life situation. I imagine regular slider would give more features but Dana Dolly syle slider will hold more weight and give an ability to change the lenght of the tracks. Also, I was thinking about this issue of tiping over protection that wouldn't interfere with center support and I think I might be onto something.
We definitely have a load of cheaper sliders and we had plans to do just what you suggested. But we just can't make the time to do all the videos we would like. Hopefully we can get to it. Obviously, the smaller sliders are portable and great for what they do, but I doubt you will find them on a movie set. However, there are loads of expensive pro sliders that cost big money. $5000+ at just 2-3 feet. Look at the Grip Factory 2' GF-Slider, for almost $5K. So the Dana style dolly is really a cheap alternative to the professional sliders. That is why it is so popular. We look at the Dana dolly as an alternative to say a Fisher dolly with huge tracks, huge dolly and very expensive to rent.
@@mrdogpoopstudios I've had my fare share of work with cheap crap sliders as well but I'm more interested with comparing to those between 500-2000 dollars in price. Those high-end ones don't really make sense to me as well because at this price range there's no point in comparing them to a 1000 dollars Dana Dolly, let alone to cheaper alternatives.
I would recommend contacting a metal supply place and getting 1.25" schedule 40 aluminum pipe. I want to say that it is about $120 for 12'. Some people use metal electrical conduit which is half the price. As long as it is smooth and rigid, any pipe will work. What do you think of the dolly?
@@mrdogpoopstudios thank you so much I love your channel. I’ll look into that. And I haven’t used it yet lol still getting the track and low boy stands
@@ab0b3rna1 The stands are as expensive as the dolly. We just invested in the Matthews Mini Slider Stands at $300 each from B&H. It is an expensive business to be in if you want to be at a professional level.
What do you think of the PROAIM Breeza Dolly slider. On Amazon it’s about 500 bucks. Movmax is the same price but I have to pay 200 shipping 🤔 would it be better to get the PROAIM?
I have not tried the Proaim Breeza, but Proaim is hit and miss. Some things are good and some are bad, but never great. The movmax, is great and Proaim will never reach the quality of the Movmax. You can buy the Movmax with free shipping from B&H, if you just want the standard kit it is $499, just the 100mm and 75mm bowl adapters, do you really need the 150mm and Mitchell mount? www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1785350-REG/movmax_83_0053_grip_dolly_basic_kit.html Buy the Movmax, you wont believe how nice it is.
I have been using the Pro aim Breeza Dolly for a bout 2 years now, and I love it. i paid about 1300 in total for the dolly, a case, two end stands, and a set of 4ft, 6ft and 8ft rails with all tools. the Proaim also come with a break, and also as standard comes with a flat, 100mm and 75mm Bowl Adapter. if not had any issues with it, i had to adjust the wheels slightly to fit the track i was using but you have to do that for all dollies really. really happy with the breeza dolly. it carries upto 220lbs too.

The system never ships. You order it and 3 months go by with no updates, can't get a refund. BEWARE
That does not sound right. Who did you buy it from? Have you tried calling the CA distributor directly? Have you contacted the vendor?

Ha ha so I finally bought the movmax dolly. What do you recommend for the track? Just go to Home Depot and get pcv piping? Or aluminum? And what size?
I would recommend contacting a metal supply place and getting 1.25" schedule 40 aluminum pipe. I want to say that it is about $120 for 12'. Some people use metal electrical conduit which is half the price. As long as it is smooth and rigid, any pipe will work.
