Big Foot Bobber Floating Grip for GoPro
The Big Foot Bobber is a floating hand grip for GoPro-style action cameras. It gives you a comfortable handle to hold the camera and is designed to float, so if you drop it in water, the camera is much easier to recover.
Floating grips are popular for water sports, swimming, boating and fishing, but they are equally useful as a simple handheld grip on dry land. Holding the camera on a grip rather than in your fingers gives steadier footage and keeps your hand out of the shot.
Floating design
The buoyant grip keeps the camera at the surface if it goes over the side, which can save an expensive camera from sinking. Always check that your camera is in a suitable waterproof housing or is waterproof itself before taking it into or near water.
Buoyancy depends on the weight of your camera and housing, so try it in shallow water first to make sure the combination floats.
Handheld filming
A grip makes it easy to point the camera exactly where you want, film yourself, or capture low or high angles. Use a wrist strap if one is fitted, particularly near water.
Fitting
Attach your camera to the top of the grip and tighten the fixing firmly. Check the product photos for the connection type to make sure it suits your camera.
