Enhanced GoPole Reach 14-40-Inch Extension Pole for GoPro Cameras in 2021 Review

Update (May 10, 2018): I have to update my GoPole review as I am dissatisfied and disappointed with the second GoPole I bought. All of the telescopic struts were binding, the plugs were coming off and the whole pole was falling apart. For the price I paid for this product I expected MUCH better quality. I would no longer recommend purchasing this product as using it during my recent vacation was an absolute disaster and inconvenience. Last post: I like GoPole but it replaces the first one I…

I didn't want to buy this because of the negative reviews; However, all of the extension cords seemed to get about the same rating. I'm glad I bought this stick. I've used it for snorkeling and panga shore tours. He survived sea lions and small sharks. This gave me the correct spacing for the fish/corals etc. Yes it was extremely difficult to get all four pieces together and pull them all the way out. It's not something I would try underwater. I pulled and pulled the rod out of the water and…

For cliff jumping, snowboarding, hiking, fly fishing, diving, wakeboarding, kite surfing. Pros: Stretching and squeezing is very easy while it lasts. screws. - Smart remote control with wrist strap is very cool and useful. - Has a very good grip, nothing like fragile selfie sticks. - Super light and compact, fits anywhere. water if you use it in water. (I always rinsed it in fresh water after using it in salt water) However, it only lasted 11 months. Eventually the rubber stoppers will come…

I've had mine for about a year now and have used it on about 15 dives. Started with a short pole but wished I had something that would allow my camera to get close to certain things (eels, rays, lionfish, etc) without hurting the rest of me. The only problem was that there really wasn't anything telescopic up to that point and I obviously didn't want to deal with a 3ft pole hanging on me when I wasn't using it. That completely covers all my bases. It's long enough that you don't have to worry…

Bought for the length, really wanted it to float on the water. Pros: - Length, I can get all 4 extensions to lengthen in dry weather, 40 inches! - Comes with a camera remote control holder - I like the color combo: super white, dark gray and blue - The grip is quite strong - The strap provides some security, screws into the grip Cons: - DO NOT SWIM ON WATER! (but you can set it to float if you really want to use a small piece of plastic noodle) - difficult to rotate when trying to fix the…

GoPole is functional but has a few drawbacks, the first of which is crucial to me: 1. The slide in/out mechanism is finicky and unreliable. You have to rotate the sections just right to make them move, and you really can't do that reliably. After 1.5 years of use, the part got stuck forever and the GoPole had to be thrown away.2. The thumbscrew consists of two parts: a plastic handle and a metal screw. They are not securely attached to each other, so you have to a) glue the screw yourself, b)…
