T-Pod is not tall enough as per Chris’ Post... for a refractor that size the observer will be lying on the ground... which might not be a bad thing armed with a nice think sheet of foam rubber.
The only tripod that I know was tall enough was something I sold a while back - a Wild Heerbrugge military theodolite tripod that when fully extended was about 70” tall. There’s one on EBay now for $385 or so. But probably not stiff enough for this scope - will be a bit wobbly in azimuth
