Gino, that's a bunch of short sighted corporate bullchit. You were selling those cheap solely for the benefit of the members. Those are VIDEO CAMERAS!!! Sold to members who are going to turn around and use them to video boating and then post videos on the site. That benefits the members who buy them AND all the rest of the members who would inturn watch the videos here. IMO you were doing nothing but enriching the the OSO experience for members. Whoever decided to censor you was either drunk or stupid and as a paying member here for many years I apologize for their actions, I mean seriously WTF!!!

Went to BestBuy web page to purchase a hero3 black. It would not accept the promo code. Has anyone else bought one on line from them in the last two days and used the code??

I use a gopro 2 on my checkmate zt28 in NJ on the kill van kull
its great I put some of it on youtoob!
my gopro advice for SOUND is
youcan look up lots of options on youtube
for a good remote gopro plug-in stereo mic
that destroys
regular gopro audio quality

also youcan flip the goprocam to upside down mode
and then 'hang' the cam instead of positioning it up right on
the weak grabbing stock go pro clamps

I didn't understand why the driver kept looking back over his the right side. I also didn't understand why the guy in the back was sitting on the sunpad, this video really reminded me of the Fountain guy at LOTTO, glad nothing happened.

Here's why a safety cord is not a bad idea either - mounted on scoop that had too much flex or vibration.

Second one has waterproof case - older silver Hero gopro - still a sh*t load of wind noise - needs a remote mic back by the engine - they don't make a remote for the silver Hero's as far as I know.
