Gitzo: look at Series 3 or Series 5, i am sure there are another series of gitzo can handle those huge glasses, i am talking for monopod and tripod.
I have Gitzo 5540 got it yesterday, it is perfect to carry this lens no problem, only i need a head.

I use a Gitzo GM 5540 or a Manfrotto 681B with the 600mm. The Gitzo is the better choice of the two.
