Tested and approved by pro surfers in
macking Puerto, Northern California, and Hawaii,
the Surf HERO is a revolutionary quick-release board-mountable camera.
Shoot 56 minutes of TV resolution video
with sound or 5 megapixel photos automatically for over an hour while your
surf. Waterproof to 100 feet/30 meters.
Features a 170º ultra wide angle lens and
high-resolution 5 megapixel sensor. The lens is so wide, it can capture a
6’2" surfer from head to toe while he/she is riding a 6’0" surfboard.
Designed for maximum convenience, simply
press the shutter button on the paddle out and the Surf HERO will shoot TV
resolution video or 5MP photos every 2 seconds for an hour while you surf. Once
it starts shooting video or photos you can forget about it until it’s time to
review your footage at the end of your session.
The Surf HERO includes two, removable
mounting options:
- A stick-on baseplate that takes a couple of
minutes to set up and go.
- An FCS™ compatible plug mounting system
that allows you to allen-screw your camera into the deck of your board when you
install an FCS™ 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.
