Worked great until my GoPro sank to the bottom of the sea...

3 years ago

I used this accessory to bring my GoPro with me on open water swims and kayaking trips, either clipped to the kayak or stuffed into my swim trunks. Unfortunately on a recent kayak supported swim the camera housing detached from the handler as I flipped the kayaking while getting on board. While the floating stick was still clipped to the kayak the camera housing with the camera inside had detached.... I am pretty sure the camera was well connected to the handler but of course impossible to check or verify. Thinking how to add an additonal layer of security in the future, e.g. by protecting the detachable clip with a layer of duct tabpe etc....

Good, not perfect

3 years ago

:wave::watermelon::ocean: One if my mounts broke, nothing major, but since i paid a lot i expected the money to much the built quality. The application is really easy to use. Helps with Instagram stories etc. Right now I am using my Go Pro 10 for black and white photography, since it is so small i can fit it anywhere (check my Instagram @papadopavlos) Marketing-wise I believe the head mount should be free/included with the GoPro since it is the one capturing the "most POV" experiences, hence making people use your products and sharing their stories Long story short, Great product, but there is a room for improvement regarding the gadgets and the pricing

I'm a new owner of the Hero 10. I love the camera. I bought it to do some snorkeling in Hawaii. I also took it ziplining and parasailing. I need some practice but me being in experienced is my fault. My hero 10 is a superb product and it does everything that is advertised. I will be a gopro user forever. If gopro has some tips send them my way. Thanks GoPro

down here we all float

3 years ago

Owned for years and have used occasionally. I use it when snorkeling with a GoPro Max. I set it to 360 video mode, press play and let it go. Swim circles around the gopro as it floats doing its own thing. Makes it a whole lot easier and does what it is advertised. Worth it.

Worked Great First Day

1 month ago

The first day I used this floating grip while on a 2 week snorkeling trip in Indonesia the small connector piece between the grip and the strap separated and a piece was lost on the boat. Ugh. I had to rig a new connection with remaining tiny string and large elastic. I would like to get a replacement strap if possible? Otherwise the grip worked great. I was able to let it float alongside me when not using. Grip dried quickly even in the humidity. Except for the failed connector, all else was fine. Also, one final recommendation, please make the thin string looped to the grip more flexible and add an extending capability. The small string regularly became tightly wound in the Indonesian currents. Thanks

Floats like crazy

I added a LED light then my gopro in an underwater case for some scuba diving and I could not believe just how much it floated. I will have to figure out a better way to attach it to my BC to keep it from floating in front my face. I am impressed

A must have for water activities

Wether you are on a water slope or in a swimming pool The Handler paired with Floaty are the accesories to have. The strap it can be tightened so it's no danger to loose the camera. Add The Remote and the setup it's complete.:wink:

Simple and easy to pack

I recently had a once in a lifetime opportunity to swim with an alligator. Having my handler for the GoPro made it inconspicuous during the experience as well as looking professional.
