Posted by AnUnlikelyExplorer I like it quite a bit but it gets heavy real quick and it snags things when i attach it to my backpack.

Due to the inertia their weight provides, heavier tripods have a stability edge when shooting unless you weigh down the lighter ones.
Some lighter ones have hooks to attach weights.
The old heavy wooden tripods work well because of this and the wood's vibration damping.
The same is true with the heavy composite tripods.
So that weight isn't a bad thing necessary...
