I purchased this item to use my GoPro camera on a trip to Florida where we will be swimming with manatees and riding in an airboat. In both cases, I wanted to hold something short for better control of the GoPro and something that could float if I dropped it. This product worked great. The handle is rubberized and offers a good grip when wet. The tube in the handle stayed dry after an hour and a half in the water. It was light and floaty so it was easy to handle and I wasn't worried about dropping it (although it comes with a seat belt which I used). I liked that you had the option to use just the handle separately. I did not use the extension for this trip. But I've played around with it a bit and it seems solid. It's plastic and I believe it will break if you overtighten it. But he seemed strong enough for his purpose. I would recommend this to my friend.
