First Go With the GoPro and Handplane - It was a blast










Well you can tell by the smile on my face that I had a blast. This is what it's all about. Feeling like a kid again, swimming, laughing, having fun. I'm so stoked I can't wait to take it out again.

The whole set up works great. The camera worked flawlessly and the handplane setup was perfect.  It was easy to shoot, manage the camera and catch waves. The setup is so light you don't even notice the camera at all.

I came back with 700 plus shots and video that blew my mind. I have never relived a session like that. It definitely opened my mind to some ideas for making some films. The wheels are turning. Thank you again to Kipp for all your hard work and GoPro for making this happen! Enjoy.

  2. Fantastic! You capture the feeling exactly!
    I've just made two wood planes and surfed them in Springtime England ,UK last week.
    Stoked right up! I'd love to see your video, do you plan to post it?
