Your average gopro footage is really boring(sorry DJ). They make good waves look really average. Unless...
I disagree hilly as I enjoy the average GoPro footage especially DJ's ability to steer clear of those close up crotch shots with his highly developed extended GoPro clamps. 
I think DJ is the exception (and there may be one or two others) cos he usually gives you a sense of the surroundings, or an overview of the break, or points the camera at some other fellas and not just his old fella.
But most of rest of the time ... what Hilly said.
