Surfer Cameras

USSupernet is an authorized distributor of Go Pro Surf Hero HD waterproof cameras.
Price: $269.99	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 HD Surf HERO can also shoot 5MP photos automatically every 2 seconds while you surf. With the simple press of the shutter button on the paddle out you can capture photos during your entire surf. Other photo modes include 5 / 10 / 30 / and 60 second time lapse as well as single shot, triple shot, and self timer modes.



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^TM fin plug into the deck of your board and then use the camera mounting plug to allen key your HD Surf HERO into the FCS^TM 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.

The Surf HERO includes two, removable mounting options:

1. A stick-on base-plate that takes a couple of minutes to set up and go.
2. An FCS^TM compatible plug mounting system that allows you to allen-screw your camera into the deck of your board when you install an FCS^TM center fin plug into the deck of your board. Easily done by any ding repairer or shaper.

Both options allow the camera to be quickly attached and removed from your surfboard.
