Jonathon v Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Hey I’m getting a GoPro hero 4 and I was wondering what could I use to protect it in net, and how to tie it to middle bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey School Dropout Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I'll be the first to say it - mounted on the glass with a suction cup will give you a much better view of what's happening out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This... There use to be Puckeye... But I think they're done. On the glass is by far the best. I do have a Bar Mount if you want, $10 CAD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thought would be that because the behind the net is closer you can actually tell your angles a lot easier. Because if it’s in the net you won’t be able to see the puck if your body is behind it. Am I correct on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IPv6Freely Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Just a better angle overall. In the net can make for some cool shots but absolutely worthless for trying to study yourself to improve your game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter36 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 I just got a Hero 4 too. Does anyone have any tips for getting good video if the glass is very marked up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I am wondering if there are any settings/tips you could give me to help extend the battery life? Last night it only went for about 1:10 then died.

Also you can lower your resolution. Swap out batteries during intermission (I only have a 1 minute intermission so not possible in my case). Or, external battery pack. Just about anything will work. I'm sure USB battery packs exist wherever you are. I end up just doing 1080p for pickup to save battery, and 4K for games since they're way shorter. 5 hours ago, cwarnar said: I attach mine on the ice side of the glass... Same.

Does anyone have any tips for getting good video if the glass is very marked up? I've recorded my kids from the outside of the glass. The camera is close enough to the glass that unless there is a puck mark or giant scratch right in front of it, the glass won't matter. I use my suction cup mount and adjust it so the camera faces toward the cup instead of away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what I’ve been doing but the rink I play at has horrible glass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.YOUNGoalie13 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Any help for the GoPro hero? Mine is either a + or a 4. It records for a little and then just shuts off randomly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the glass behind (so long as it stays I’ve had it fall mid period) is much better I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
