Grab and go slo mo mount and tripod

I only do visual and I've always been an alt az slo mo fan. However my preferred scope for lighter scopes, the Vixen Porta 2, has always had a cumbersome tripod which is not travel friendly. This meant I was using a push to mount for travel and I don't particularly like it. 

However, following some random googling this week I discovered that vixen had relatively recently issued a new camera type tripod that fits nicely into the porta 2 with good stability.

It seems to do the job well and is reasonably compact at 60cm so hopefully when traveling I will have my slo mo after all.

Pictures below with a comparison with the quite bulky hal130 which I previously was using in my porta 2.
