Description

If you've ever thought - I wish I had a camera for that session - this is the camera you wish you'd had.

The 60fps and 1080p modes which set this model apaprt from the Hero 960 really pay off in high action sports like surfing where you want to be able to slow the action down when watching it back.

If you want to achieve the smoothest slow-mo of your barrel footage the 60fps mode is the one to go for.

There has never been an easier or more effective option for shooting water footage, the rechargeable lithium battery has 2.5 hours of juice, the SDHC compatible card slot allows up to 32 GB cards to be used.

The Surf Hero comes with a board-mount for attaching the camera to your board, the housing clips securely into the mount and can be removed easily when your sessions over.

You don't have to shoot in 1080p mode either, try out the 720p 60 frames a second mode for super smooth slow-mo like you've never seen before, or a variety of still photo modes all available at the touch of a button whilst you're in the line-up.

Read on below for the full technical details, but check out the video clip for an example of what can be achieved with the GoPro HD:

GoPro HD HERO Camera: Surf Movie from GoPro on Vimeo.

GoPro's HD Surf HERO is the world's only 1080p HD on-board video and still photo camera. Professional quality 1080p / 960p / 720p HD resolutions record at 30 and 60 frames per second (60 fps in 720p). Easily mounts to any surfboard in seconds. So light, even top pros claim they don't notice the camera on their boards.

The batteries last for over 2.5 hours of HD video or automatic photo taking, so you can document your entire surf with a single push of the shutter button on the paddle out.

The included adhesive base mounts in seconds and is proven in heavy surf from Hawaii to Tahiti, Southern Mexico to Northern California.

Or you can install an FCS fin plug into the deck of your board and then use our patent pending camera mounting plug to allen key your HD Surf HERO into the FCS plug.

Lighten your load on your next trip and use the HD Surf HERO for your non-surf related photos and videos, too. Optional accessories make it easy to mount the camera on your wrist, bike, scooter, jet ski or helmet.

Tow surfing? A chest harness is available for that, too.

Waterproof to 180' / 60m and protected from rocks and other hazards thanks to its removable polycarbonate housing. Replacement housings and lens kits are available, making repairs or refurbishing your HD HERO camera affordable and convenient. It's a GoPro...go for it.

AWe can ship the GoPro Surf Hero to Italy, it would cost £9.99 sending it via our international tracked service.
QHi there, Was looking at getting the Go pro for an upcoming surf trip. main thing that I don't get is do I have to permanently stick the mounting base to the front of my board or is it a suction deal?
AThe camera comes with a sticky mount that fixes to your board like a tail pad. Go-Pro do a suction cup mount but we don't recommend it for use on surfboards

Brilliant gadget. Used it on a recent trip to Newquay. Got some great high quality footage. If you like gadgets and wanna check out your style, buy one. I was in 12 ft waves and the camera hung on my board no problem. Great bit of kit!
