Hey Azmeth

I love the back foot in between the back straps technique!
oh and great video. Yeah waves shrink with these angles. The price you pay for self recording.

... though sadly like all GoPros it underplays the swell size, actual size was about 1.5m.

Ah... the ol' "the camera makes it look smaller than it really is" line oft repeated on tinder.

Michael Jackson would have been impressed with the foot switch at 2:32. Nice soundtrack choice!

Cheers.
Who else but The Avalanches would mix Karen Carpenter and Mick Jones into a track

Amazing clip JJ! Because of you i now have a hero11
May i ask you about the mount to the boom? How long is the rod and do you feel the weight of the gopro at the ride? 11 is heavier than my old 7. Do you use a remote for on/off?
Cheers Pat

awesome vid JJ and thanks for the how to boom mount.

I used a section of carbon SUP paddle one time and the swing weight when flipping the sail was awful.

I think Santa is bringing the gopro 11 this year, looking forward to capturing DTL foiling here this winter

Thanks JJ and Bellerophone. 60cm is quite long. A massive glass fiber batten should not easily break like a hollow carbon one. But may sway much more. A easy way to assemble and deassemble to the boom is a must for me. Don't want my boom with such a long thing at the end all the time. But the pvc tube version is great for a first try.
We now have winter in switzerland, sadly cold and no wind at all. Must wait for spring. So enough time to create the mount.

I have this silicone cover and glass protectors from aliexpress for little money:

I have had good luck with this:

Minimal swing weight.
