Here’s a tip: Get something different to GoPro.
Tip2: No matter what she gets tell her to purchase it off me - she will save money.

Yeh just awkward as well. My mates go pro I find is heaps better. More sport orientated as well. As in poles and board mounts etc.
Still the contour was better for helmet camera for Afghanistan haha boys had go pros and it was awkward.

I prefer anything but go pro!

The gopro is fugly! LOL

The contour is pretty slim looking. But i have the drift grin

Ha yeh I’ve got an older model contour. It’s on it’s last legs and not waterproof. Haha poor camera has been duck taped to some random stuff and placed a little too close to some explosions.
I just personally prefer the go pro.
I agree though its not very pretty

There is plenty of people here who like the Go Pro. Just don’t jump on the band wagon too quickly and maybe do a bit more research with whats around.

Bandwagon here i come.

This is all under the assumption she gets me one anyways…. Could end up being socks shock

Bought a new surround sound today. I hated our old one cause it was just so damn big and bulky! Nothing wrong with it sound wise, still worked amazingly! Our new one is more slimline and fits our loungeroom better!
