The S-85 Model of telescoping booms includes several new features, including fixed-width axles for simpler transport and setup and a virtual pivot boom system, which keeps the weight of the boom over the chassis while it elevates, reducing the need for extra counterweights. The 80-ft boom of the S-85 can extend to fully elevated in 68 seconds and new boom sensors keep it smooth. Genie Industries Inc.; 800-536-1800; www.genieindustries.com
