TO ATTACH ANY WATER CAMERA TO THE BULA, THE PHISH, THE WEDGE HANDBOARDS IS A REALLY SIMPLE PROCESS.

We know 1st hand how the ocean can swallow stuff really quickly, that’s why on all of our hard-top high performance handboards have a built-in extra safe GoPro mount. 

When your Slyde Handboardsarrives you will notice  a build GoPro insert (essentially a hole in the nose of your board) with a screw inside at a angle. Have no fear the the screw is designed to be at an angle, that’s exactly the way it’s supposed to be.

ITEMS NEEDED TO ATTACH GOPRO:

A GoPro Camera
The GoPro Surfboard Mount Kit- includes 2 Surfboard Mounts, 2 Adhesive Anchors, 2 Camera Tethers,  FCS Male Plug Mount, Locking Plug
An Allan Wrench
STEP BY STEP ATTACHING GOPRO TO YOUR SLYDE HANDBOARD:

Take an allan key/ wrench to loosen the angled screw a bit on the nose of your Slyde Handboard.
Place the “Surfboard” mount in the “hole” of your Slyde Hardboard, if it’s a little snug push it down until it’s firmly in place.
Once the GoPro mount is fitted on board & use allan wrench to twist and tighten it in place.
Line up holes on GoPro Camera & Mount.
Take your GoPro Camera, place it on top of tight mount with camera facing inward towards Slyde Rider (selfie style that’s where we’ve seen the best videos come from).

ADDITIONAL TIPS:

Remember a water camera will but a little bit of weight on the front of your handboard, so you’ll have to compensate by putting extra press on palm.
Use the adhesive anchors included in GoPro Surfboard mount labeled 3m. These have sticky tape on back, so in case the GoPro comes unattached & ripped off for some bizarre reason, you won’t loose your camera completely.  (Steve’s been in some heavy surf & doesn’t come out) Simply stick it next to GoPro mount and attach the little rope/leash to anywhere on the camera.
