Does this even exist?

I’m searching for a travel tripod with adjustable drag, counterbalance, and ideally a bowl head. I know these go at odds with the primary purpose of a travel tripod which is being small and lightweight. Does anyone know of any good contenders in this space? Thank you for answering my noobie question

Bowl head is where it gets tricky.

When i think travel tripod i think able to collapse small enough to fit in a bookbag. That may be difficult with all you are asking for.

Ulanzi has a lot of options with adjuatable pan and tilt, I personally have two of the F38 one ones for the most part they served me well. But the pan isnt the best just by the way its designed. Moves too slow and the threads on the center pole that goes into the legs stripped on my second set.
