GoPro - Head Strap Mount - Black

The Head Strap Mount is the must have for hands free filming and it is more comfortable then wearing a helmet when one isn't needed like: fishing, snorkeling, ect... It stretches to fit any head and has padding right behind the mount to keep the plastic from rubbing your skin. My main complaint is that if you forget the beep count you may not know if it is recording unless to take it off to look, use the app. or remote, or bug your friend to look for you. This could result in missing the capture or waste of battery. One quick learning curve is that things streak by during video play back fast than how your head and eyes together track it. Keep your eyes straight with your head and turn your head slowly to track your subject.

Perfect for skiing, biking etc, although it makes you look really stupid with a camera on your forehead. Very practical though, but if you don't use the wireless remote control it can be hard to turn it on and off, know in what mode you are without having to take the camera off your head. the strap stays well in place. I just wish Gopro wouldn't rip off their customers, as for practically all their accessories, it is way over priced for what it is, and they know that without those accessories, you can't do much with the camera except holding it in your hand...

Overall I was excited to use the product. The strap is adjustable in two directions; one strap going around the head and the other above from the front to back. The tricky part for me was pushing the record button once I had it seated. I'd have to feel around a bit to press the button, but I think the user will overcome that with time. What I found to be useful is to ise a mirror to help mount the camera so it's not tilted too downward or upwards. The build on the straps I feel will last a while. They are also elastic, so it has a rubberband type of effect when you pull on them.

Purchased this head-mounted strap for the GoPro Hero 3. My daughter and I were boogie boarding in Oceanside California for the week and I wanted a unique way to capture our adventures. This setup is excellent! When combined w/the water-proof case, we were able to capture all of our successes and failures! :-) It is almost infinitely adjustable. It holds camera firmly. (No shaky cam) The uses for this seem almost endless. I also have helmet mounts for when we do 'other' activities but this one is nice to have for non-helmet fun. Enjoy!

I purchased this mount with the intention of using it this coming winter while skiing. However I had the chance to use it during a recent river rafting trip. Over the course of the 4 hours I had it on my head, not once did it bother me. By the end of the trip I forgot I was wearing it (maybe that's partially due to having had a few beers that day too). The strap is comfortable and the fact that its so wide prevents that feeling that plastic grocery bags give to your fingers when you are carrying something heavy.

I never owned an action cam, nor knew much about them. I bought this for a mud run and everything came out great! Under water was awesome, and people say things about the sound quality with the underwater lens cover but I thought the sound quality was great, in and out of the water, and it's all clean clear HD, also wide view. Love it! Glad I bought this and no other. Was in my budget and I got more out of it than I expected. It's a great gadget with a lot of options. And I can be picky!

I recently shot a Law Enforcment Training video with the Go Pro Hero and the Helmet Strap and I got great results. I was afraid that the camera would do a lot of bouncing with the straps, but it was very steady and provided a great perspective. I would recommend this strap to anyone who uses this camera!

This held my gopro nicely and fit my head without too much movement. The adjustment was also great for my son to use. My only feedback is that if you are using this for a triathlon, it takes some time to screw the gopro cam from the bike attachment to your head strap. I have recently seen that gopro has already created quick clip to remedy this speed issue. If time isn't an issue for you, this is a great product.
