#govest

While out in Fiji, we tested out the GoVest for standup paddle boarding. Kevin and Matt navigated through the mangrove forests and got some great photography and videos of their journey without having to stop to look at their surroundings. Normally one would have to stop to film while SUPing because paddle boarding requires two hands to navigate the water. However with the GoVest, breaks are not needed and the whole trek can be filmed, not just the times you stop to smell the roses. 

This is footage of me river rafting on the Truckee river last week. Thanks to the GoVest, I could actually get footage of me riding some of the bumpier rapids. The other riders were forced by the raft guide to put their cameras, away. Since the GoPro remained attached to me the whole way, I was the only person on the boat that can re-watch their trip. 

This was only my second time river rafting, and after a positive experience I plan doing more of it (hopefully starting when I go to Salzburg Austria in a few weeks). Thanks to the GoVest I can relive the afternoon whenever I want. The video here is some of the highlights of the trip. Those into rafting and filming their journey's, the GoVest is a must have accessory.
