i rarely post post here due to the anger generated by pre-pubescent kids dropping their "knowledge", but i REALLY think folks have to stop posting gopro vids of their sesh in 1-2' dribblers. you can share that crap on the youtube, show mom and dad how kool you are, but unless you are dropping into a real wave, no one wants to see it. everyone knows how cool you are b/c you have a waterproof cam, but you still cant surf for ****. i'd rather watch your drive to the beach than your "domination" of 1' waves. please, just think about what you are posting (action-wise) before you post it... that is all, signing off. G.
you just gave me a great idea...you'll be able to purchase in stores soon...thank you. I'm rich, biotch!
I dont think gopro's are really worth it, unless you are getting barreled. Watching someone turn on a gopro isn't that exciting, but watching them get completely covered up is pretty cool.
yeah, unless you are in OBX in the fall ona decent swell, go pros are lame to have mounted... The footage is usually still really bad.... If you use a go pro, do yourself a favor and just have a friend swim around on the inside and take photos of you as you approach on the wave... Also if they sit on a shoulder, the perspective from above the wave, looking down at the bottom turn makes the waves look 3x bigger than it really is.... So either use it in the flats, on a shoulder with a friend, or take that sh** to INDO.... there is no reason to have one board mounted unless you are going shack hunting... and yes, if need to be much larger than 2 feet obviously.
II amam sorrysorry. II dontdont typetype veryvery wellwell... (where 'bouts are you from in the NC? i did time in the stack 'em high house (mp 9 KDH) in the early 90's...)
Am I the only one who think the typical pose in these vids looks something like Dee from "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia"? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rc__Zbwm-IU
take one backcountry snow boarding. Like deep in the woods, so sick! Just remember to turn it off in the lift line.... I would like to wear the helmet mount to make some DIY porn. Oh yeah.
I agree, it seemed like all of a sudden, everyone purchased a GoPro and mounted them to everything! I have an idea, mount one to a shark and toss him in the line up, now that would be some good video!
