I was very pleasantly surprised when I got this. It is heavy duty all the way, would not feel hesitant to mount it in tricky places and trust my gopro with it.
Low Light Time Laps Test on myDrive Home

I got my new HERO 3 Black Edition today and HAD to try it out on the way home to test it's legendary low light advancements I've been hearing about, and I've got to say they were better than I expected! The light outside was darker than it looks in this time laps. I shot this on the Time Laps photo mode taking 1 12mp photo every 5 seconds and then sped each photo up to 0.1 second in iMovie. I recommend everyone get this camera as it is a HUGE improvement on the HERO2!

Does anyone know how well this works in the snow? I want to use attach my gopro to my board to get a different view point.
Jeff Guest

it probably won't hold very well on your snowboard since your board is going to be flexing and vibrating. Go ahead and try it just make sure you have it teathered to your binding or something so when it does fall off you don't loose it. ALWAYS TEATHER!
Be Aware

I purchased the Go Pro Motor sports package that included this suction cup. The first day I used the suction cup, I drove 40 miles on the freeway with it staying on just fine. On the way back, it held fine until we reached the top speed of the trip. My Go Pro was ripped of my car at 75 miles per hour and thrown onto I80. I eventually found my camera and the pieces while hiking up and down Parleys. Sweet idea and great for slow, good weather condition days. Bottom line: Just remember you are strapping a $300 investment to something.
Used on a Kiteboard and a Wall!

This suction cup mount is amazingly strong! I use it on my kiteboard (with a leash just in case) and it hasn't come off yet! I've also got it to stick in a wall for about 2 minutes! It is worth getting just make sure you have it tethered to something just in case it fall off.

NOT stainless steel
gnarlydog1008807

While the mount is good and sucks very well (much better than other suction caps) the metal hardware is NOT stainless steel.
Using it in salt water will corrode the bolts and after a while will become rusty.
Since GoPro cameras are often used in lousy weather or marine environments, the bolts shold be changed to stainless steel

Works great on windows, other flat surfaces
Chris Scott

Maybe you are documenting the road trip to a distant biking destination, or maybe you are driving your mud buggy around the swampy swamps. Either way, this suction cup mount is the most firm, secure, and versatile mount for windows and other flat, smooth surfaces. You can aim the camera in basically all directions with this mount, and everything is easily adjustable. One plus is that the suction cup doesn't leave marks on any surfaces, unlike other similar products. And do remember to clean the surface you are suctioning this to beforehand. It will last a lot longer if you do.
Impressive

I stuck it on my motorcycle last week. It ended up being a very bumpy ride. A lot of potholes, old frost heaves, cracks in the road. No issues at all. I wasn't completely confident with it and created a leash for the mount, but never had to use it. Mind you, the surface was on one of my hardcase saddle bags. The surface of the bag isn't completely smooth either. It is a bit rough.
Update: I had this on my motorcycle for over 2500 miles from Boston up to Nova Scotia and around Nova Scotia. It never fell off.
It Sucks... In A Good Way!
Jeff Guest
Member since
I bought this to use on my Kiteboard and I was amazed at how well it stays on the board! The thing suctions onto the flat smooth surface of the board and then you flip the switch up and it locks it on there! I had a leash on it just in case and I will continue to put the leash on it. This will definitely stay on your board, car, window, etc...

My friend was able to stick it on the side of the jump plane a few weeks ago. I wish there was footage, but he forgot to hit the record button.
Good, but use at your own risk
Griffin Post

The suction cup is pretty sweet- let's you capture great time lapses and action where otherwise you wouldn't be able to. But, although I believe it stayed on the F1000 race care, it's not a sure thing. On bumpier rides it can definitely work itself loose. Also, I've experimented with it a bit as a ski or snowboard mount, and it can't hang in that environment. So, as long as it's in a place where it can be recovered when it falls off (i.e., not a boat) go for it.
awesome on the right surface
Ross Solomon
Member since
Works great when on a perfectly flat, non-porous surface. Will not stick on surfaces such as a dash board, as it is both curved and has a strange texture. Make sure you test it real well before you go fast!
Great for vehicles
Monkeybar
Member since
Great suction cup for any vehicle. I have used it for my car and it takes great videos this way. I have notice that the GoPro will take better quality video if the camera is not taking all the shock. I think this is a pricey suction cup, but most accessories are in this price range.
Clean the area where you will place it, so the camera is secured.
Chris Scott
Member since
I agree about the pricy part, but you can't find anything of equal or better quality for this price regardless.
