Rated 5 out of 5

Used this on a superb holiday with loads of snorkelling and scuba diving in the last two weeks and it worked great.
The cinch strap fits nicely around your wrist and can be adjusted easily.
When combined with the underwater camera case it makes a great combo of being solid, easily floats if you let go, and easy to hold for stable filming underwater. One thing I found useful was being able to let go with my hands and swim close to fish/etc but then grab it again to start filming. I can then just crop the little bit of swimming out knowing I got to the correct place quickly.

Is works great in my hero 9, but when I’ve taken it for some swimming and alight diving, I was afraid that the camera might fall off the hand grip. I guess it was because the force of the water it occurred. Nonetheless it’s a great product and I recommend buying this for recording on land & water.

This is a great tool for the GoPro 10 hero. Allows for stable images while snorkeling. Floats so that if you drop the camera, it doesn’t sink, but not so buoyant that you have to fight diving down.

This works well. I have a GoPro 9 with an underwater case that I used this for. This attaches to the GoPro (which is waterproof) without the case as well. Great for snorkeling. The orange end sticks up above the water like a fishing bobber so you can easily find it above water if you get separated from your camera.
Attached photo shows use as a floating underwater tripod. Have to chase it around a bit to get yourself in the video frame, but works.

We bought several GoPro attachments and honestly, my husband used this the most. He zip lined through the jungle and snorkeled in the open ocean with sharks and reef fish. It’s sturdy but it’s nice that it floats if it gets away from you. It does have a wrist strap too, which is nice!

it’s my only complaint. surely a quick release mount should be included with this.

Very good feel to this and good girth for grip

This handle is well built. it provides buoyancy for the camera kit so it won’t drag on the bottom. However the lanyard on it is easy to get loose underwater and it falls out of my hand. Luckily the divemaster picked it up for me otherwise I would be losing the camera. Never trust the lanyard comes with this handle. consider replacing it with another lanyard or hooking it on the BCD.

I am really glad that I brought this, it makes the GoPro really easy to use both in and out of the water. It secures to the wrist ensuring that it can’t be lost or dropped.

I bought this for my new Go Pro. It was helpful in a vacation where we went on a boat for a whale watching tour. I recommend this product.

The floating grip handle works really well. We used it to jump into a waterfall in Hawaii and tape the whole thing. It was great. this worked exactly how it was supposed to. We also used it a lot in the pool that we stayed out on vacation and it was very sturdy.

E’ probabilmente il miglior accessorio per il mare per la vostra Gopro. Esistono varie imitazioni off brand più economiche ma io personalmente preferisco acquistare originale. Ora quasi 30 euro sono già al limite, per un manico di plastica galleggiante e per fortuna un laccetto. Io mi chiedo, perchè risparmiare su almeno UN attacco per la videocamera? Difatti attenzione: non c’è. Dovete averlo voi. Scelta commerciale molto discutibile
