Just wondering how many of you out there use a helmet for SUP surfing?

I bought a Gath to put a Gopro on it. Nice hardware, very good fit, light. I do not use it for non-gopro sessions, but I wouldn't mind it.

The best footage is... to vary the perspectives! So shoot from the paddle, the board nose, the tail, the helmet...
I also use a regular videocam on a small tripod on a dune (when there is no one around to take it: off peak season only).

Juan seems to use the suction cup, to mount the GoPro, because he posts pictures on Facebook taken from the nose and then, for the same session, from the paddle extrado (not the shaft, because we can see part of the paddle extrado and flameball logo). So obviously, he uses the suction cup, and moves it around during the session. FYI, he adds a "life jacket" (floaters) to the whole set-up, so if the suction cup falls to the water, the camera+suction cup floats and he can get it back. I copied this system.
