I hear you on the helmet. The Shred Ready helmets (standard helmet) are the only ones that seem to fit my head shape, long and narrow. I could never get any of the other helmets to fit, but haven’t tried a Sweet Protection. Now that I’m a newbie transitioning to hard boats from inflatables and rafts I’m spending a lot more time with my head exposed in the water. Will definitely check it out. Great tip on the GoPro mount too. Most adhesives seem to work better with a little heat activation.
@@WadeHarrisonThis comment aged well. I did end up buying a Sweet Protection helmet back in September. Fits well. Took a head shot (well, multiple head shots in one incident) last weekend. First time that has happened. Super glad I had this helmet. I have walked away with just a slightly sore neck. Sweet gave me a 40% discount on a replacement helmet using their crash replacement program. I’m totally sold on the Rocker.
Use to use braided fishing line like that as well to hold the GoPro on my motor cowling running through timber duck hunting - keeps you from losing that sucker when the mount breaks
Do you have to let it cure for a while? I need to mount one late this night and use it in the morning. Will it hold a camera or there's a chance it fly's off?
Oh for sure overnight will be good to go I actually spoke to a rep from 3m and she told me 24hrs was perfect cure time but still I would run a tether to the go pro
@@WadeHarrison true, but I only have a few hours to spare, so I don't know if it's safe or not. For reference, I did went to that kart race after letting it cure for just a few hours and it's been super solid. I guess after 24 hours it would only be removed with a layer of helmet still stuck to it 🤣
@@ThemeParkNomadsOfficial yes do it like this but I would highly recommend still running some sort of small tethered string just in case it flys off so the go pro doesn’t hit someone
I have a small fishing line with a clip for a tether. I will have to do a updated video for that one. As for helmet I did a sweet rocker video here Sweet Protection Rocker "Unboxing/Review" th-cam.com/video/n1DjJy83wpM/w-d-xo.html
Thanks Wade. Just ordered me a Hero 11 and can't wait to try it for whitewater, mushroom hunting and videos of my band. I see the fishing line on there... good idea. Maybe ten pound test? I want it to break if things go really south...
This is super helpful! Thank you for posting. I’ve been dealing with all sorts of strategies this weekend trying to get mine to stay on 😂 how can I show people the beatering life if I don’t have a 1st person view?!
Yes the representative from 3m adhesive was the one that told me you want to heat that tape up and get it hot before application of course not like on fire only melted but just like warm
I try to keep it pointing more up because a lot of times I have a aggressive forward paddling position and then if I don’t remember to to that all the footage is nothing but spray skirt
sure i got it as a gift It came from amazon its so good I highly recommend!! www.amazon.com/JAYLINNA-Retractable-Camping-Telescoping-Folding/dp/B08CRS55ZX/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?dchild=1&keywords=telescoping+chair+camping&qid=1609893638&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzMjI2UjdDUUdIMklMJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwODAwNTg1Uk5GT1gzNUw1UVJCJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTA3OTU2MDczVFFQNVJPUDNIWkJGJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYXRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==
That trick with the lighter really didnt work for me. Just destroyed the stickness an the foam and it did not hold. Maybe i did it wrong. I have to buy some new holders. I think I will go just with the original stickness without the lighter trick next time. But I dont know maybe I just did it wrong.
Super glue might not react well To the tape and make it like brittle i would suggest just the tape if done correctly trust me it’s crazy how well it works
See below video because I use my GoPro for whitewater kayaking mostly And if I roll over and it hits a rock it could break off the helmet and its at the bottom the river forever so I put a teather and clip so if it breaks gives me time to pull off and grab it check the video below 👇 Go Pro 10 Tips Never LOSE a Go Pro off your Helmet Again! th-cam.com/video/7PxWRTozrHo/w-d-xo.html

White side of the sticky? What you mean foo, you clean the surface with alcohol, take the backing off of the "sticky" and place the "sticky" part where you want it and press. Is that not what he did? (Besides heating it up)

Clear and straight to the point, so helpful! Thank you!
Yup
Oh the chicken strolling in the background is hilarious!
Free range all day I have a fenced in back yard so I just let them stroll
That really is a great tip; thank you for sharing!
Another one would be to mark the exact place where the mount should go.
Yeah I had a sharpie I used one time
Great tip just put a mount on my motorcycle hemet and the 4 corners weren't snug found this video and confident it'll stay stuck now
Glad I could Help Buddy I use to Ride a lot on the Dragon In TN
@@WadeHarrison oh nice never been out there
Looked at tutorials to do my helmet with my go pro yours was the one I knew I could trust cheers
Hey thanks for watching buddy
Thank you very much, I just got the hero 11, and it came with that mount I was really doubting if it was actually going to be able to hold it on.
Yeah mine stayed on there the life of the helmet
I have some off brand ones that don’t have 3m adhesive will they stick? And should I trust them
Tough call I do know there’s some knock offs out there with these I try to just stay with the official GoPro ones that I linked
Man, talk about great advice.
Excellent video mate: I watched it, did what you said, and went straight out.
Yeah I still have the same one mounted years later

Do you use a security cord in the gopro?

Nice tip. Next time the mount pops off I'll know what to do. Thanks
I never had one come off after doing this...
Hi, we want to know if it’s safe for a gerstlauer rollercoaster, mounted between the rails, nice instructions.
Not sure what a gerstlauer rollercoaster is but sounds interesting?
Just want to mount my camera on a rollercoaster carriage but it’s not so easy like I think it is, we use that mounting adhesive.
@@ThemeParkNomadsOfficial yes do it like this but I would highly recommend still running some sort of small tethered string just in case it flys off so the go pro doesn’t hit someone
How long do you clamp it for, and how long before you attach a camera?
24hrs is what I think is recommended from GoPro
What did you do for your tether? Also I agree that SR brand sucks and I’m looking into a Sweet Protection one. How do you feel about WRSI helmets?
I have a small fishing line with a clip for a tether. I will have to do a updated video for that one. As for helmet I did a sweet rocker video here

Go with 30-50lb braided line
@@WadeHarrison Thanks!
Do you ever put a tether on for additional safety? I am concerned about potential snag hazards. Your thoughts?
th-cam.com/video/7PxWRTozrHo/w-d-xo.html
I do and no I don't think its a snag hazard where its at and its not enough to hold you
do you use fishing line as a backup onto your go pro? how do you do that?
check this video ---->>>> th-cam.com/video/7PxWRTozrHo/w-d-xo.html
Is the 11 supposed to come with the flat mount?
No mine came with one curved mount only in the box but i also ordered a bag of mounts and extra batteries with mine….
@@WadeHarrison ok thanks
This is super helpful! Thank you for posting. I’ve been dealing with all sorts of strategies this weekend trying to get mine to stay on 😂 how can I show people the beatering life if I don’t have a 1st person view?!
Hahah yeah we all have good days and bad days of beatering no videos can help that buddy
Is that water-resistant and suitable under-sea?
Yes the 3m adhesive that’s on these clips will hold up in anything but I still suggest some sort of tether
Bro is it really Ok to Heat the Addhessive Mount with Small Lighter & Apply it on Helmet?
Yes the representative from 3m adhesive was the one that told me you want to heat that tape up and get it hot before application of course not like on fire only melted but just like warm
Great vid. How do you aim your camera on helmet?
I try to keep it pointing more up because a lot of times I have a aggressive forward paddling position and then if I don’t remember to to that all the footage is nothing but spray skirt

How about Put Extra super glue in the mount? Is it a good or a bad idea 🤔💭 ???
Super glue might not react well
To the tape and make it like brittle i would suggest just the tape if done correctly trust me it’s crazy how well it works
