NO.. not on a stripper pole!!!!! what were you thinking?


First try with a Gopro on a pole video while kiting.. Not very good but will get better.

Next run will be in the waves or at crissy

Fun with a GoPro on a pole

Post by sc-surfer » Thu Mar 07, 2013 10:43 am

Just built a pole myself. Trying to figure out a leash setup. Would like something retractable that I could hang on the back of my harness. That way I could let go of the camera ant it would hang out back there mostly out of the way. Kinda like the school janitor key ring deal but waterproof.
Maybe could use the reel leash?

Any thoughts?

Experiencing the monent is much better than trying so hard to capture it. Id rather just ride then hang all types of goofy gadgets off of my harness and hang onto a camera on a pole.
