This offers two direct advantages: you can comfortably view through long refractors without bending over, and your telescope or camera rotates freely without hitting the tripod legs. Especially for zenith shots, this extra space prevents interrupted sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Skywatcher-180mm-WAVE-Zuilverlenging-1.jpg\" alt=\"Skywatcher 180mm WAVE column extension mounted on tripod with mount as example setup.\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Skywatcher-180mm-WAVE-Zuilverlenging-2.jpg\" alt=\"Skywatcher 180mm WAVE column extension product photo of the column extension.\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 1.1 kg construction is built to maintain the rigidity of your setup: gaining height without sacrificing stability.
