The Cobra support for flutes is like a ring worn on your left index finger. It has a "tail" that sticks out, providing a secure place for the flute to balance. Unlike the other flute supports, the Cobra does not have to be attached to your flute but rather is worn on your finger. So it doesn't need to be removed from the flute to store or clean it, which can scratch or mark it. You just take it off your finger like a ring and put it in its case.
The Cobra is available from Mistic Media
The Cobra is a bit more expensive than the other supports, priced around $50. However, you only need one Cobra, since it is always holding your flute stable no matter which fingers (or thumbs) are busy playing the keys. That makes it more similar in price compared to buying two of the other types of support.
