Got a new computer so put together a quick edit of some Gopro footage from a board mount. Pretty much same three tricks over and over- sorry- some funny crashes but! This is what you end up with when you don't have your own personally videographer following your every move from the beach. Hope you like :)

Hey man. Fun vid there. Just wondering how'd you put the camera on the board so it doesn't go walk about?

Hey trapped , this board Axis Newave has two built in inserts to attach gopro with attachment designed for twin tip fin screws. I add foam floats that at times were in the shot so if it breaks it doesn't sink. I did snap one off bit luckily case broke and kept camera dry!

Okie dokie. I'm just a bit nervous about gluing 500 bucks to my board. Any recommendations when doing it?

I would just use the surf mount with the foam floats on the back. I cut some dense foame for the camera to sit on to support it. Other advice don't land on it

On the vid editing front. It hurt my eyes. It was far too erratic and jerky. I lasted to 1.09 before I had to stop playing it. My opinion is that more angles are required.

Fair call plummet not my specialty for sure. It's done with iMovie on a new iMac I just got. I tried a stabilisation feature on it and it zoomed it in too much so I took it off again. It could have been a 20 second clip with one trick landed of each and I got carried away with adding crashes to add comedy. Definitely more angles required as well I'm sure you'd appreciate the video from my lines erraticness and jerkiness! Need some vid from the beach just need someone to do it.
Thanks for feedback and Thanks Austin for the props

Nice one Rich! Absolutely ripping. If you ever need a camera man you know I'm down to trade off!
