New light, comfortable and solid back pack mount for Gopro I came up with.

Turn the speakers on and enjoy:

The pole that holds the Gopro...

A mount that is not in a straight line to the Gopro is heavier and less solid.
I wish there was a transparent one but there is'nt

It is for self filming not for professional film makers like you.
For less than 65 AUD it does a nice job.

Also, your profile picture reminds me that when windsurfing the sail is in the shot the whole time and blocks much more view

Good skillz...

I prefer boom-tail-mounted stuff myself. Looking forward to setting this up for myself when spring arrives.

Above the boom (amazing sense of speed once he gets going):




and below the boom:

Same perspective but made without a backpack or pole in the shot..

And unless you like Dubstep, turn it down..

Yes, nice one (accept for the tune)

There is not much video from the back and I guess it is not that steady picture when surfing rough water.
Also, most mounts I have seen until now are quite heavy duty and not to light on the back.

Still, very nice!

Above the boom looks pretty cool, but what's going on with the back of the board???
I dead set thought that it was a CGI clip when I first watched it!!! OK it's late and maybe I'm tripping out, but watch it again and watch the tail of the board when your motoring along...

Am I trippin balls???

Gabi I think it's just good editing. I know with mine, if the camera is mounted in one spot and I have 3 straight minutes of video my non windsurfing mates just fall asleep, gets boring

Anyway you've done well, looks alright although you lost me early in, too much same same, hey I'm guilty of that too but we only have to please ourselves
