Using it with a housing degrades the image quality and I also experienced fogging. They advertise the camera as being water resistant but others online have noted their cameras have died after kiting or surfing. I intentionally keep it a bit more conservative while using the camera on the lines.

I've heard a few other owners state that one or more of the triple insert "sets" come loose under the "laminate" of fiberglass... or plastic sheet..? as one guy here wrote. I just purchased a barely used 4ft2 model in Hood River (now...
For anyone with an Insta360 or GoPro Max, this is likely the line mount you're looking for. Enes Mentese out in Berkeley came out with this mount a few months ago, and it solves the old problem of having 70% of your field of view being obstructed by the line mount itself. This is accomplished by put...
I use the mystic stealth bar with surf rope, it's been great for foiling as the heavy padding and integrated bar (screwed to the pad, not floating) means there's no rotation of the bar into my ribs.
