GoPro cameras are used by more pro surfers, surf filmmakers and stoked enthusiasts than any other camera in the world. The HD HERO2: Surf Edition is the most advanced GoPro camera yet. Wearable and surfboard mountable, waterproof to 197' (60m), capable of capturing professional full 170º wide angle 1080p video and 11 megapixel photos at a rate of 10 photos per second, the HD HERO2 is the world's most versatile camera. It is the smallest, lightest, most powerful HD camera in the world for capturing and sharing immersive videos and photos of you and your friends surfing and traveling the globe. Whether your goal is to capture footage of yourself getting pitted on a dream trip or you want to film your style to study how to improve (it works, big time!), the HD HERO2: Surf Edition is designed with you in mind.
Included are 2 adhesive surfboard mounts and an FCS® compatible mount that makes it easy to plug your GoPro into the deck of your board like an FCS® fin. Other accessories are available via links on the right hand side of this page.
