Overall everything is fine. I use this with a GoPro Hero5 Black. Pen as waterproof storage is good. Take that into account and there are better swimming poles out there. The camera mount is a very patented item. If it breaks you won't be able to find that exact piece, you'll have to buy a new joystick, so don't over-tighten the camera mount. He can hardly keep hero5 black afloat. If you put something else in the pen (I rolled up $5) the camera will sink. If you're using a GoPro Session or a smaller/lighter camera, this may not be an issue. It would be great if you could put a backup battery in the handle. (but will probably go down because of the above) I don't know if I recommend this stick or not. It's a solid stick with a few quirks, if the above dislikes don't matter to you then I'd say go for it. If any of the dislike bothers you, I'd say keep looking.
