Properly mount your GoPro to your bike helmet. I thought it was obvious but I received many questions on how to do this. Here's a few tips so you don't screw it up the first time. Learn from my mistakes.

@wattsmichaele 4 года назад

Now you have my attention. Will the next video show you jumping ramps? Or pulling wheelies? When we were very young we use to play with the Evil Knievel toy where you pulled the strap on the launcher and it would zoom off and wheelie or jump stuff. You, me, and Paul played with it in Oklahoma. Good times! I’ll be waiting for the notification bell for your upcoming jumps and wheelies!

@evolutionaryTom 4 года назад

Oh Yeah, I remember that toy. You will be waiting a long time if you want me to jump or wheelie anything. Those days are gone, cuz!!!

@lemix69 3 года назад

I was looking for something to strap to the helmet, so I got on youtube and just before I clicked on this I figured it out, looking at all my mounts and stick on pads. Duh! 🤓

@evolutionaryTom 3 года назад

It just fit really well! One of the tricks is to stick it to the helmet while the camera is on the mount. You need to make sure you don't put it in too tight of an area that you can't get to the prongs to release the slide mount. It's still stuck like cement on my helmet. It's not going anywhere.

@charliethechipmunk7635 Год назад

does the camera come with the slidy bit that fits onto the mount?

@evolutionaryTom Год назад

If you mean the frame that the camera slips into, yes, it comes with the camera, Charlie. And then the frame and connector mount to the base. It came with all of that.

@jkmania7705 3 года назад

Can you ever feel the GoPro weight on your head when it's on ur helmet, does it make ur helmet unbalanced?

@evolutionaryTom 3 года назад

Great question, Jkmania. No, it's not an issue at all. I've done a 6 hour ride with it on and never once did it seem to bother me. And I don't wear my helmet too tight, either. The GP Session 5 is the lightest one I have. The GP 8 is bulkier of course. -Tom

@jkmania7705 3 года назад

@briantejares 2 года назад

Does it wobble your helmet around? My helmet tends to wobble alot when I have the gopro on it. Any idea how to fix that?

@evolutionaryTom 2 года назад

Tighten up your chin strap for one thing. If your helmet has the adjustable cradle on the back of your head, tighten that up a bit too. I think the second one helps the most. Also, if you have your GoPro up on one of the longer attachments, use the one that keeps it as low to the helmet as possible. -Tom

Is the mount secure on the helmet? It wont fall off?

@evolutionaryTom 11 месяцев назад

It's rock solid. Still hasn't fallen off to this day. Just makebsure you properly prep the surface before you stick it on.

@johnathanquirk1885 3 года назад

What is the mount called

@evolutionaryTom 3 года назад

Johnathan, it's officially called a curved sticky mount. Here's a link to them. You can also find 3rd party versions of it and you can get 3X as many of them for the same price GoPro charges. You always think of more places to use them so don't be afraid to get a few extra. They're worth far more than they cost. amzn.to/3taKDa4 -Tom

@lostcarpark 6 месяцев назад

A bike helmet is designed to absorb the impact if you are unlucky enough to go over the handlebars. A GoPro is designed to be nearly indestructible. This seems a recipe to have a GoPro pushed through your helmet and embedded in your skull. This does not seem like a good idea to me. Mount to the frame or your chest, not the helmet.

@evolutionaryTom 6 месяцев назад

I can see your point. Let me add a little more color. The GoPro itself is designed to be nearly indestructable, I agree. The mount is completely different. I've had mounts break, the prongs break off, and it's a completely different plastic from the GoPro or GoPro cage around the camera. I think the camera would easily separate in you were to crash and the helmet hit anything. BUT, your scenario could certainly happen and it's a great point to consider. Thanks for the knowledge add! -Tom
