Nice bunch of surf! You really have that paddle mount down, I've tried, it's real hard to get those nicley framed angles.
Great video!
Lots of nice boards compared in one place..... good to see.
The paddle shots, done like you do, really show more action and how a board flows over the water.
I've tried the paddle mount.... it's not easy to get good shots.... well done, you guys are ripping![]()
Nice you were killing it with the paddle cam well filmed ! ![]()

You just got to SUP with really really really steady arm and paddle movements , which suxs, aint that easy.
When i have just tried to totally forget about the camera angles and free SUP the footage gets way to bouncy and all over the shop. (As a few have testified in the above posts)
The other thing is, your the one often out of position filming. (Something to remember )
So you also cope an extra beating, getting caught inside ETC ETC even at a place you surf regulary , which suxs.
That is why i really only do it when the conditions are generally smaller and or groomed , funny enough we had been out for a good hour prior to this decision to get some footage as the swell period backed off.
You do not want to loose your camera ,which ive done , going out when it is pumping and hectic.
You very quickly go into survival mode and the camera gets smashed around as you dont give a **** , its then just luck, whether its there when you resurface ,costly exercise, often not for a lot of extra gain , just some hip pocket pain and a ****ty end to a surf.
Anyway more practice the easier it gets
Fun when you get home and you forgot to turn it on
Forget to put a sim card in
and realise the battery' went flat
at least the go pro seeeeeems to maintain is water tight integrity
TTTTTEEECHnology fun but often
