Customers are saying

Customers are satisfied with the Floaty Backdoor's ability to keep their GoPro afloat and its ease of use. Many appreciate its bright color for visibility and the added protection it provides. However, some customers find the Floaty Backdoor to be bulky and heavy, impacting portability and potentially affecting its flotation capabilities with certain accessories. Concerns were also raised regarding compatibility with some GoPro models and the obstruction of the LCD screen.

    Had a ton of fun with this little floaty on a recent trip. Completely worry free when around the water, swimming and on the boat.

    This item has been a great addition to my Go Pro. I don't have to worry about losing my camera to the river when we are kayaking.

    Your Go Pro is going to be around or in the water and the floaty back door will give you peace of mind about losing your camera.

    You can't not use the floaty backdoor if you're gonna take your GoPro in the water, especially in the ocean. I plan on using this while snorkeling and don't want my new GoPro on the ocean floor for some diver to find. :D

    When picking a GOPRO product you know you are getting a product that is made for the use intended so there is no guess work.

    It provides added piece of mind while snorkeling that jut in case it get loose from my head mount while I am clearing my snorkel mask off water. Sometime this occurs in deeper water where it could only be retrieved via a scuba set up if found at the bottom of the sea.

    Floaty works great for camera only. Will sink with any additional pieces attached (such as suction cup), so be careful.

    This has two backs to attach the float so make sure to pick the right one out of the box before adhering it to the back.

    I purchased this floaty because I didn't like the bulky one I previously owned for my GoPro. This floaty fits perfect and does its' job. I haven't brought out to the ocean yet, but it floats in the pool!

    Float

    Good for surface level, not for diving

    If you use a small hand held camera stick for your GoPro, this will do a good job of floating your camera to the surface. I tried this with a diving stick for scuba excursions and it became near worthless. The pressure at depth compresses the floaty and will only slow its decent. I've since just used a standard back for the dive housing and use the floaty with housing that comes with the camera. On or near the surface, it does a great job and is easy to see.

    It includes multiple back doors, only one will fit your housing, so be sure to check before you accidentally attach the float to the wrong door. (speaking from experience here). They say it will only float the camera, but I tested, and it was also able to keep my 3-way mount floating, which was perfect for me.

    Attached this to a Digipower Re-fuel battery pack on my GoPro and took it on a rafting trip. Thankfully the camera was never in the river when it wasn't supposed to be. But had that occurred, the floaty proved buoyant enough to keep the camera afloat. Even with the heavy Re-fuel pack on it.

    Lost a GoPro a few years ago because we didn't have one of these (...), so grabbed one of these for the last trip to the beach. Worked exactly as advertised. We could throw the camera to someone else in the ocean and it would land and bob right there. A great security measure for your GoPro.

    While we haven't had to use it yet, we purchased as a precaution. We heard a story of someone losing their go pro while surfing and it sunk quickly into the ocean. Because we use our go pro on the water it is important to have the floaty backdoor in case it is dropped into the water. Better safe than sorry.
