Great for snorkeling
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This bobber was amazing. We went snorkeling everyday on our trip to Hawaii. This bobber is small, lightweight, and convenient. We saw a lot of marine life and at times ended up in some shallow rocky areas, it was nice to be able to let go and feel confident that the wrist strap was in place and the camera wasn't going anywhere. We also dove with sharks and at times, we were knocked against the cage. There were guys with us who had the long poles and they were having a hard time trying to get themselves in a good position to keep themselves safe and prevent their cameras from being eaten. We were able to let go, get our bearings, and grab the bobber. We could also keep it close enough to where we didn't have to worry about it being in the way or getting lost.

Great accessory
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I took this bobber with me on a dive trip in Hawaii! It was great, easy to hold, kept the strap around my wrist, bobber would float, and kept my gopro close! I was able to take some great video and pics using this bobber with my GoPro.

Simple but Amazing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When purchasing this for a trip, I really didn't know what to expect. I tried the floaty back from GoPro and ran into a problem with it, so looked for a different alternative. Stumbled upon this amazing product, and after getting it home and looking into is functionality, I ran into one concern. That concern was dealing with the removal of the what looks like a plug. It was the screw in camera stand mount or wrist strap attachment location at the bottom of this product. Not needing the strap attachment for the pool, I decided to test the hole left open with the camera attached and I wanted to see if it was going to fill up with water. I did not see anything happen at all. Even held it under water to test to see if it would sink... still, no water entered. So this is an awesome product.

Must have GoPro accessory for diving!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the GoPole just before a recent diving trip to Thailand. I had a friend lose a GoPro while diving so I wanted something that would not only tether the camera to my dive gear but also float as a backup. The GoPole worked perfect. It has enough buoyancy to float GoPros to the surface while being completely manageable underwater for filming purposes. It comes with a tether and clip that attaches to the bottom of the handle for extra security while in the water. This product is not only great for diving, but any leisure activity in and around water. The yellow handle is also much easier to spot in the water as opposed to all the other black handle products. The handle is a good size for most adult hands and the rubber wrap provides more than adequate grip in the water.

awesome attachment!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This hand held bobber works great for skating, surfing and for swimming and videoing friends surfing! It helps take the shakes out of the video you get when just holding the camera by itself! Fairly easy to spot when dropped in the surf and its floating in the white water! Get it, use it, and share your adventures!! Go big, GOPRO, or go home!

Perfect for GoPro and water
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you have a GoPro and are headed for the water, then I definitely recommend grabbing this. It's great quality and the high-vis color makes it easy to spot in the water. Oh, and it floats!

Bought for a Florida trip.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this, as wells as a floaty back door for my GoPro Hero3+ Black for a trip to florida. It is a littl large to try to figure out where to store with all of the other accessories. But, it seemed to work well in the Gulf of Mexico. A little bit of cheap insurance for an expensive item. Watch the pricing though. It showed in-stock at my local store, and clearance price online. But when I got to the store, it was in the back room. Not on the shelf, and it rang up at the original price. I had to show them the online info/price.

Works great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Took this on a trip to Hawaii to do some snorkeling and used it for that and around a waterfall off North Shore. It floated as it says on the packaging, but keep in mind that depending on the camera (I had the Hero Session, smallest of the GoPro's, thus lightest) it will float, but just under the surface. The wrist strap is a perfect compliment to the floater. Good grip on it as well, in and out of the water. Also, don't over tighten the mounting screw to the bracket of the floater. It will break and good bye camera.

Worked as I expected.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the Bobber Floating Hand Grip to use on my family's summer fishing trip. I like that fact that it was easy to see in the water and how the grip felt, while mounted to the water proof casing of the camera. I used it for shooting under water shots as we reeled fish in to the boat. And i wasn't afraid to let the kids take my camera into the lake or pool and losing it on the bottom of either. I would highly recommend the Bobber Floating Hand Grip any go pro user that likes to take video around water.

Great. But, a couple flaws.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this to do diving and snorkeling with while on vacation. I've seen someone drop their GoPro in the ocean and I didn't want to be that guy. I tested it while swimming and noticed a strange clanking noise. It turned out to be the keyring style clip that holds on the lanyard. The clip is metal and the post it attaches to is metal. That left me with no way to wrap it around my wrist to ensure it didn't float away. Luckily, a guy I was diving with had some string and that was a quick temporary fix. It's held together after a couple dives up to 70 feet, snorkeling and a bunch of swimming. I'd buy another.

GoPole - Camera Hand Grip is a nice option to have
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have used the head ban and wrist band Go-pro attachments but wanted the hand grip for a different application. The hand grip is a much better option than just holding the camera with one hand even if using the video or doing stills. When used in the water (scuba) I like the extra floatation is provides as a hedge against dropping it, the yellow provides high visibility especially if your busy and forget where you placed it. will have to use it awhile in the water to see the wear ability and how well it will stand up to hard use.

Great accessory for water usage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the Bobber to be used on my trip to Cancun for scuba diving. The camera i used it with is a Sony Action Cam (required an adapter). The bobber worked just as i had hoped in the water. It floats well and is brightly colored. The one concern i had before buying this was how hard does it pull while underwater (as in trying to float up). To my surprise, i did not even notice any pulling when using this on my dive trip. I highly recommend this to anyone using their camera for watersports.

Worked great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I took the GoPole with us on our trip to Puerto Rico, and it worked exactly as expected, both for when we went snorkeling and when we went parasailing. It is nice not to have to worry about losing your GoPro in the water. We used the strap around our wrists and it never came off. Easy to transfer also from person to person while snorkeling. Good purchase!

Nice grip!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this grip as an alternative to a GoPro grip for use with our GoPro near the water. We fish at the beach and plan to put this grip into our fishing pole holder. It seems well made and I like the visible color. The price from Best Buy was better than that online company which starts with an A!

Go-Pro float #1
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this to take my Go-Pro snorkeling in the Mexican Riviera. I needed something that would keep my camera floating in case I dropped it. I used the wrist lanyard that was included and never once needed to worry about the camera. What's super is if you just let it float the camera will stay subsurface so you can actually join in the filming hands free.....excellent purchase!!!

great idea
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for a gift for person with boat who also has go pro camera who used it on his boat, the recipient loved it, since worry was the camera fall overboard by accident, now at least he has a chance to retrieve it, especially since color yellow is easier to spot while bobbing in the water

Great for water use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never lose your camera in the water again. At first I didn't like buying third party accessories for my GoPro camera but when I found out about GoPole, the quality of their accessories were fantastic. The bobber is great for water use, I'm constantly in the water, and if I ever drop my camera I can rest assure it won't sink and I will locate it quickly. Protect your investment.

Don’t lose your GoPro
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very handy and very bright floating GoPro hand grip. The coolest part is it keeps the camera upright it floats and acts like a buoy for your GoPro-truth be told it was less expensive than the official GoPro water hand grip. I’d recommend this purchase.
