The swiveling stick turns 180 degrees so you can capture yourself or your environment, whichever you think will provide the greatest views. It works with the simple click of a button and comes in three sizes. The company cites the M-18” as the perfect selfie stick for travelers as it’ll easy fit into your pack.

 

The rotating selfie stick holds a variety of cameras and video recorders, including smartphones, GoPros and your basic point and shoots. It’s also incredibly durable, made with polycarbonate and stainless steel, and can withstand the weather in every season and landscape. You can even take it underwater. The stick is also entirely mechanical, so no batteries are required.

The stick retails online for $60 and is available today.
