DIY Boom Mount for Whitewater Kayaks / GoPro Mounting Option
I often like to mix in several different angles of the action while capturing our adventures. One of the most enjoyable views is the stern boom. Looking for a better option than the one I was previously using, I came upon this design. Here is the DIY Boom Mount build that I recently did. Save some money and build one for yourself! I present the Boommaster5000! LOL

    What dagger boat are you paddling there? I'm an old boater I like edges but I also like floating down the river. The machn0 paddles like a boat to me but I really don't like half slices either any suggestions. Paddle mostly Southeast class 2 3

    If you are looking for a good water proof radio, I would recommend the motorola h20. I grabbed a couple for my wife and I and they have great range, plus they will float and light up if they do hit the water. I am pretty sure that part of being a good kayaker is having a good playlist, I'm taking notes here!

    Another great video Pete, I was just thinking about trying the "charging arc" at the LVWWC this Saturday, as i was just finishing up editing my video when i noticed a good wave to try it on, I've only ever done it at a small weir so i need to get out of my confart zone, seeing you guys doing it has encouraged me more, as a side not, I have been trying the ferry glide with as little strokes as possible, i can get it down to 2, sometimes lol, keep up the good work, aka Bashy2.0 :)

    Safe travels! I know the feeling although I’ve gotten lately where I don’t like driving more than an hour for a boat… Which is why I made my stepson go on a six hour round-trip drive to go get a mad river canoe for me a couple months ago lol… I did pay him for his time at least 😂 Well can’t wait to see this boat, Pete!

    Sorry I missed it! Love DIY stuff. This one leaves me with a question though. Why did you build this one differently than the one on Nana? Just to build it (I would do it for the sake of doing it too!) or does it give an advantage over the Ram Mount on Nana?

  • @MissMichoS

    So much good information in your videos. I literally had a panic attack just watching Bonnie (I think was her name) flip over. I honestly have zero interest in paddling rapids, but I am trying to be prepared for unexpected things I may encounter on a river. Thank you for making these!

    Hey Pete, great video! I'll have to give that a try. I'm experimenting with different mounts and cameras (should probably make the videos to prove it) and I was wondering if you've tried using 360 camera with that mount. I bet it would give you some great footage. Out of idle curiosity, does that mount pose any danger with preventing a roll in a sort of shallow situation or is it so short that you wouldn't be able to roll anyway? I dont yet have the skills to do white water, I am just wondering. I saw you rolling in the beginning of the video, so it looks like theres no interference for a normal situation. Keep up the great work!

    Cool, thanks for sharing. The boom mount is contected to the grab bar similar to a spigot insulatation box that uses the spigot as an anchor (you tighten it so that it is tight to the house - similar to tightening the hook on a kayak)
