Impact heavy duty stands, They're air cushioned too which is amazing. On b&h they're about ~$45 for a 8' stand.

Is there an advantage/disadvantage to spring v. air? I have one spring and 4 air. If you are getting a cushioned one, air is better. Don't try to confuse me with the facts, my mind is already made up.
