How does this NYC Jib op handle the cold weather?? When you book Jimmy Jib Rentals, Spider Pod Rentals NYC, or other camera crane systems from DC to Boston, sometimes you’re going to wind up on an event outdoors. It’s not the temperature that gets you, it’s the wind! I personally embrace the seasons and am quite tolerate of temperature extremes. Outside of production, I’m an avid golfer and you’ll see me out there when it’s 35 degrees out and 105 degrees out. However, standing there with a jib when its 20 degrees and windy gets to your core pretty fast. The first life saver I have is a heated vest. It’s powered off a USB power bank and keeps my core toasty warm for hours. Thick gloves and the jib controls do not mix at all! I wear several layers of nitrile exam gloves. they keep just enough heat in while still allowing me to use touch screen monitors and have full tactile control of the jib. I also have rain covers for the handle controls with electronic hand warmers inside them which helps keep the temperature up. In dull moments during a show i can get my hands on a hard warmer too!
