Sharing a GoPro video from our trip to Disney

[CaptainCook]

I thought I would post this here because I've seen a few questions asked about GoPros in the past, but not a lot of discussion or answers… hoping this may be useful to someone. There are a couple clips that were filmed on a point and shoot camera but easily 98% was filmed on a GoPro. I'd be happy to answer any questions you have about using a GoPro at the parks.

Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed watching and look forward to our next trip.

I've never thought about getting a GoPro until now. Were y'all using a monopod of some sort on the rides?

I had the camera mounted on a pole (brand name was Platinum) that telescoped from 9-28 inches. Most of the time I kept it at 9" for walking around. On the rides I generally extended it so that it rested on the ride car in front of me. That helped to stabilize it a bit.

Hey thanks for the great video I think I will use one for our next trip- I see you used a pole for most of the time - how would a chest strap go do you think? Were there any rides not allowing you to use it?
