GoPro Slingshot

The easy tail fin produced of out foam and zip ties truly did a excellent work of stabilizing the camera.

This seems to be like a entertaining experiment to consider when you’re at the lake, because you can most likely develop it with things lying all around the property. For [Jeremy], it also proved to be a way to preserve his canine entertained because she retrieved the camera soon after every shot. After the crack, check out the online video footage from the GoPro slinging rig.
