Great vid, love the setting sun behind you and also shinning through the water. First time I've seen it mounted on the board, good effect

Great vid mate!
Do you have any pics of the mounts you use? Any "surgery" required on the front of the board to hold the mount in place?
Either that or a shed load of 100 mile an hour tape!

Cheers mate, the GoPro comes with an FCS plug, I had the plug installed right up the front of the board (see photos) For the tail mount, its obviously still in progress but it will be finished on Monday, Ive got to get a couple of stainless plates welded onto the bracket and insert another footstrap plug near the tail of the board to screw it to, theres already a plug for the front of the bracket, it will end up having 3 screws holding it on, one at the front and 2 at the back, hopefully this will secure it....time will tell

Great work
The tail mount looks amazing!
3 points of contact are always good,just don't miss the rear footstrap. Could be painful!
Can't wait to see some footage from that rear angle.

The forward facing shots are awesome. Great view of the wave.

Cheers Mate, Pete Volwater came over last night and showed me his stuff he's shot with his setup.

The forwards and backys of his look great as well as the wave sailing stuff.
Im going to show him how to put it on youtube, I'll put up the link to it once its uploaded.

You sound like someone who probably couldnt even get out the back of margs let alone get good footage like that. leave your negative comments to yourself. Great work moonboy really enjoyed the clip, the angle following the other sailor was sweet look forward to seeing more.
