Ah. I'm guessing one of the neewer / geekoto types. Yeah, I've got two of their aluminum ones with the ball-joint in the middle of the center column. I have two, because the leg segments are kept in place with fairly cheap plastic, and my first one showed up defective (I slid the legs out with a bit of panache, and one bottom segment just sailed out of the tripod.....). They (K&F Concept) replaced it no questions, and told me to keep the old one. A bit of gorilla glue later, and I had two working tripods.
It's not a bad tripod, but the inverted folding pattern makes it a bit bulkier than I'd like. I actually bought it as a replacement for the sprint (I have the original one, with the ball-head with no quick-release plate), and it definitely does a better job of holding larger cameras. But I just don't like twist-locks. I realize that puts me in a minority, but I much prefer a flip-lock.
