Rode BLIMP-II Wind Shield and Shock Mount System for Shotgun Microphones

The RØDE Blimp is a complete wind shield and shock mounting accessory designed for use with NTG1, NTG2, NTG3, NTG4, and NTG4+ shotgun microphones as well as any third-party shotgun microphone up to 325mm (12.75") in length. It features the Rycote® Lyre suspension system, providing the ultimate in mic suspension and isolation. Constructed from a single piece of hard-wearing thermoplastic, the Lyre provides superior acoustic suspension to traditional elastic solutions, and will never wear out, sag, or snap. The handle's recent redesign also helps reduce its weight significantly, while increasing the ergonomics for handheld use. Housed inside the grip is a heavy-duty Mogami cable which splits via a junction box into a highly-flexible thin cable inside the Blimp for minimized transference of vibration to the microphone. With the handle's lightweight design and suspension system, the newer Blimp design is over 25% lighter (550 g without microphone or DeadWombat fitted). It attaches to any standard boompole using the 3/8" thread socket at its base, and a Universal Blimp Mount is available as an option (sold separately) to remove the handle for even further reduced weight when the Blimp is being used primarily on a boompole.
