Has anyone used a Jib setup for their DSLR?

that jib looks really good to me. i get the impression that its more solid than many of these portable type of jibs. price looks good.
i have an EZ-JIB (8') plus a Kessler 12' crane. i hardly ever use either one anymore. the 12' takes a long time to set up and take down and although the EZ Jib goes up and down very quick (4-5 minutes) I've found myself using a gimbal gets that me many of the shots that i might otherwise use the 8' jib for plus I'm not limited to the length of the arm especially moving in a "circular" limitation. sure you can't quite as high but still many moves can be covered by a gimbal IMO.
still the Konova looks really good and nice price.

I get the feeling that jibs lost the game when cheap drones and stabilizers entered the scene.
I have a pocketjib Pro from Kessler.... Hardly ever use it. If I could go back I'd put money into a ronin and a dji instead.
