Great material as always. One thing, the Snap Mount loses some functionality when the GoPro is in the media mod. The mount does not provide enough clearance to fold to the back of the GoPro with the media mod is installed.
I purchased the Snapmount system a while ago and want to bring up one issue. I have a Hero 9 Black with the Media Mod Kit. When you have your Hero 9 in the media mod kit, the Snap mount will not really attach properly. I had to buy a mount extension in order for it to attach and then the opening is off on the back when you want to touch the screen. Also, I'm going to thru hike the AT beginning in March 2021 and thought this would work for me but once I received and weighed it, I feel it is too much additional weight to take. John from MI
@@SNAPMounts Thank you! If you want me to do some testing, let me know. Like I said, if it was just a little lighter, I would consider taking it on the AT but when you are hiking 2,193 miles, every ounce gets looked at seriously. Hiking the AT is like climbing Mt. Everest 16 times! Thanks! John from MI
I've told literally 10 friends about Snap Mounts and 8 of them bought already! I love mine and have them on almost all my mounts...like a dozen or so I think.
@@SNAPMounts LOL yeah I use them hanggliding, paragliding, Paramotoring, ultralight flying, motorcycle riding, car shots and angles, skydiving, surfing and scuba underwater stuff. I have them on TOP of my paraglider wing looking down on me flying and also kiteboarding with the new GP LensMod too works perfect.
Thank you for the video. I dove in deep on the Manfrotto Quick Release systems on all my cameras and gear however this seems pretty sweet for the GoPro's I own. Thanks for sharing Shawn!
@@SNAPMounts yep but last time I shipped something to the UK it still has yet to arrive... we are now at 8 months and counting... thankfully credit card meant I haven’t lost out but I’d rather not do that again
How the SNAP performe with GoPro MMAAAAAXX 360 ?? 🤔 You have it there and didn't mention!!! 😖 placing both the plates at 180º degres wides the snap mount?
Hey? Would this work to keep a go pro mounted to the inside of my rear window since the defroster lines would probably cause the suction cup to lose suction.
I think go pro fell short with the media mod. Takes too much time to take the GoPro out and swap batteries or sd cards. Not sure if this would be secure enough for me or not
Excellent video. Subbed. Yours is better than Snap Mount video. Just received mine. Quick question. The lanyard is making me feel really dumb. Without tying a knot in it behind neck, there is no way I can discern to raise and lowe camera. The sliding button only makes the loop around neck bigger or smaller. Does not raise it up. What am I missing?
I’d like to mount my go pro on a Jeep when we go exploring the forest service roads but do you have any recommendations on how to stabilize it more? And are the connectors for the car easy on and off without damage and the camera don’t fall off even with a lot of shaking? Cause the roads we go down are pretty ruff...
It is very secure. It has a strong, magnetic connection. It should not fall off in those scenarios. It comes with a thin rubber pad to prevent scratching or damage to the vehicle. As for stabilization, I am not sure I would just make sure you have stabilization enabled on your GoPro. You do want a little bit of movement as it will add more excitement and feel to the video.
I’m not too sure about that. The magnets are incredibly strong. I guess the best way is just to test it out. Do some yank tests on it to see how well it holds.
The pattern looks great. But you spent all that time making a patterned end grain board to then go and slap a side grain border on it? Expansion and contraction will tear that apart over time.
Our current mount does not have the ability to lay flush when a casing is utilized. We are about to release a SNAP Media Mod Mount that will allow for fitting in the Media Mod as it will have an extended neck. We will be testing as well with other cases.
What your favorite GoPro so far that you own I have 3 to 8 but the 9 will be coming to me from Santa my favorite GoPro is the 8 so what GoPro is yours and also what's your favorite GoPro accessory ???????
I hate when I am out freediving or spearfishing and using my camera on a headstrap and then get unsure if it's filming or not. Would this be a nice accesory to be able to popp the camera off my head and check it and the popp it back on the strap? If anyone got a solution to this problem please tell me. It's annoying as F.
There are a couple of benefits. The main one being file size. If you were going to record 30 minute hike and you want to condense that down to a 40 second hyperlapse. If you just record it you now have 30 minutes worth of footage which can be cumbersome to store and transfer.
Can we use this Mount if we have a car which is without sunroof. Basically what i want to ask is, can this be used as an alternative to the suction cups that can be mounted to the cars that have sunroof, instead of the suction Mount we can use the magnet to Mount a go pro upside down
Not sure you would be able to have conneciton through the hood of your vehicle, it may be too thick, but you can utilitze via your front window or side window as well.
Hey Shawn, I’ve got this snap mount & the Nu Grip selfi stick. But it doesn’t seem like snap mount is compatible with the Nu Grip. Have you tried the 2 together?
Also curious how it went! Love these videos an considering buying the Nu Grip and also these snap mounts :D also on the head straps to go between them easily.
There is no issue with our magnets and SD Cards. Unlike spinning hard drives and magnetic media of the past, modern SD cards are not impacted by magnetic fields.
@@AirPhotography that is something I'm starting to really appreciate in life generally now a days. kinda related but I've just got a new hiking back pack. Didn't go for a big one with everything on it, just went for a small 8 litre Montane trail blazer and it feels amazing compared to my old one. I think I may end up buying an iPad.
Seems like a good setup, however; I nearly lost my hero 9 using this. The magnets do not hold strongly enough through a tshirt, and when the camera is bumped into, it can be knocked apart from the other magnets, causing the camera to fall and be lost forever. I wouldn’t recommend.

That is super excellent! Might even work with the metal in my head.👍
Aboo’s Animals & Adventures: Shouldn’t be too hard to decide.
I received these mounts a couple of days ago and LOVE them! Makes mounting so much easier.
Oh man this makes me very happy. I can do what Dji action 2 or insta 360go2 does. A very versatile accessory. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽
Great review. I recommend purchasing space plates for your other accessories for quick and easy mounting to other accessories.
I just ordered the Pro mount kit.
Just ordered one. Was looking into bodycams but why would I buy one if I already have the GoPros??
Just seen this on a FB add. Glad your video popped up to showcase what these can do.
Just about to order a Go Pro and will definitely get one of these.
Yap, definitely a MUST have accessory
Thanks for the share
Nifty, what speed is the magnet rated at? Would hate for it to fall off whilst driving.
We have tested up to 100 mph so the magents are pretty strong!
@@SNAPMounts wow, good to know. Do you ship to the UK?
@@WalkWithWallace Yes we do!
Thanks for this video. I didn’t want to buy another action camera with this kind of attachment. Will go to the website and buy one.
My set arrived a few days ago. Thanks for the review.
Hope you are enjoying the mount!
Great material as always. One thing, the Snap Mount loses some functionality when the GoPro is in the media mod. The mount does not provide enough clearance to fold to the back of the GoPro with the media mod is installed.

Can this do well while motorcycling over windy bridges?
Great video! Short and sweet and very informative. Just purchased using your link. Thanks so much.
Thank you very much I’m glad you enjoyed the video
Of course. Your videos are actually what inspired me to get the hero 9. My first go pro and I’m pretty excited to get it to work.
Great video. Not too long and you included actual shots using the mount.
I like it. Where can I buy this?
I’m interested in the black handle you were using. I did not see that in your gear list.
Thanks for the video..😁🤗👍🏻 just checked and they are all out of stock..don’t know when they are getting more..😔
Cool mount!! May have to get one! Thanks!
That looks awesome, kinda weird I haven’t seen anything like it in a while! Thanks for the video! :)
What kind of material is your protective pad for your snap mount made of? Thanks
Great video! Do you think the snap mount would be strong enough to wear the necklace chest mount on a rollercoaster?
I can’t say 100% for sure but just for me using it it’s a pretty strong connection that myself I would say yes it would be
Thanks for the sharing. Hope to see your pocket 2 review soon. :)

If you put the adaptor under your jeep hood and the attachment on the other side it might work.
Awesome product and review
Hey? Would this work to keep a go pro mounted to the inside of my rear window since the defroster lines would probably cause the suction cup to lose suction.
i use it a lot with my Gopro 9 and 7 - an amazing product!
Love to hear this!
@@SNAPMounts :-)
Thanks for the video. I see you have a One R. Is it fully functional with the One R with its mounting bracket attached?
Good review just looking into getting one....Thanks
Can you put the gopro on upside down on the lanyard chest mount?
yes you can.
this is what i was after. I note that you said it will work with some other action cameras, do you think it is compatible with the insta360 one RS?
Hi
What ways can you use this mount on the straps of a rucksack please.
What about on car bonnet for high speed driving say 110 kmh any issues ?
Hey, can you recommend me a gopro mount for my cap to film pov in my car?
The original one from gopro is to tiny
Wow nice product. Is it applicable to hero 7? Tnx
yes!
Ya I definitely have to get that for my hero seven
Can i put a gopro sleeve over the gopro with magnet attached?
Or protective housing ?
Yes you can
Yes you can I’ve had the media mod on as well
And to put on roof of a car?
Media mod does not fit flush at this time, something we are looking to create in 2021.
Sean
Super review keep up the great work.
Thank you
That is super rad! Is it sturdy enough for some downhill mountain biking?
It is strong and sturdy but there is always the recommenation to leverage a lanyard if you are doing some EXTREME downhill.
@@SNAPMounts rad thanks for the input! :)
Thanks! I just bought this from Amazon. It is great. Im switching to this from Osmo Pocket 2.
Another good accessary
Uh oh! I saw this video and I just purchased the pro set up. Any chance I could still get those black Friday deals what ever they are? 🙏🏻
How does that work with the media mode on?
Very nice. With my disability this is something that might come in very handy....👍🏻
I think go pro fell short with the media mod. Takes too much time to take the GoPro out and swap batteries or sd cards. Not sure if this would be secure enough for me or not

Not as far as I can tell
The button goes behind the neck

Do you think the magnet will work securely through a canvas style motorcycle jacket? Just curious. Thanks for great reviews
I’m not too sure about that. The magnets are incredibly strong. I guess the best way is just to test it out. Do some yank tests on it to see how well it holds.
@@AirPhotography I love the product!!!
Glad you added about getting pinched by this thing. I have done the same thing. 🤕
STRONG magnets...slide not lift!
Why aren't there any videos that link you up to the exact same setup instead of just linking to the main page?
Nice system hopefully Gopro comes out with a quicker mounting method. Thanks for the video
Does this work with the media mod attached?
Can it be used on dji osmo action?
Yes!
Awesome. Going to order now.
Thanks for the review, what's the max speed you can drive your car with this mount without a problem ?
I’m not sure exactly but I have drove 80 km/h and didn’t have any issues
Thank you! I just ordered the whole set up! May I ask how long it took for you to receive it once you ordered it? I live in Northern California
Looks like yours arrived on the 28th! Hope you are enjoying it!
It did and I am! Speedy delivery! Thank you!
Can you please do The NU Grip by NU Bear
👇
Very helpful thank you!
The pattern looks great. But you spent all that time making a patterned end grain board to then go and slap a side grain border on it? Expansion and contraction will tear that apart over time.
Any coupons out there?
I've seen this first on David Manning's channel
Is the Snap Mount compatible with the GoPro 3-way 2.0?
Can this magnet mount use with smallrig cage on gopro 10 ?
Our current mount does not have the ability to lay flush when a casing is utilized. We are about to release a SNAP Media Mod Mount that will allow for fitting in the Media Mod as it will have an extended neck. We will be testing as well with other cases.

What would be the purpose of a hyperlapse versus speeding up the video in editing?
There are a couple of benefits. The main one being file size. If you were going to record 30 minute hike and you want to condense that down to a 40 second hyperlapse. If you just record it you now have 30 minutes worth of footage which can be cumbersome to store and transfer.

Thank you
doesn't the magnet affect the inner electronics of the action camera?
Not that I’m aware of. I have been using this for the last few days on vacation and it’s a very useful mount on a vehicle.
Hello!! This works well with midea mode?
Thanks!
Yes it does it fits well. The only thing is if you do plug-in a microphone microphone It can get in the way Where it plugs in at the back
@@AirPhotography ❤❤
What software do you use to create your RUclips posts?
I edit all my videos in LumaFusion on an iPad Pro
Hi just a quick question please, If the magnets are so strong; is there any danger of them wiping your SD Card?
There is no issue with our magnets and SD Cards. Unlike spinning hard drives and magnetic media of the past, modern SD cards are not impacted by magnetic fields.
That is not a concern at all.
Many thanks for your reassurance .
Is the magnet strong enough to work through a car window?
Absolutely yes!
@@SNAPMounts Are these mounts available for the U.K?
@@AJ-ms1oi Yes we do ship to the UK. We do not have a distributor at this time there.
I just got mine I agree everyone with a GoPro should have one
Neat! Would this be strong enough to stick to my pacemaker?
😆
So it's been 9 months. How are they holding up? How durable is the frame? Do they snap crackle pop?
I’ve been using mine quite a bit since I uploaded this video I have no issues as of yet
@@AirPhotography what's the frame made of?
magnificent
anyone tried mounting them on bike stem?
Will this work for Gopro Hero 7?
Yes, it will. Any generation of GoPro.
cool video i would like for osmo action
I had mine falk of my bibs and luckily I was in the middle of the boat or my new go pro 9 would have went in the lake
Impressive, but what I am also impressed with is you do your videos on an iPhone and editing on an iPad.

too bad this won't work for me. I have a small cage for my DJI Osmo action, and it definitely wont be able to close all the way flat
I just purchased on for my 10. Returning it. I always have on the Media Mod and it will not fit. This is for basic camera only, too bad
We will have a Media Mod SNAP Mount out in just a few weeks! Will be a game changer!!
Best investment I made, was really quick postage from the US to Aus.
It is a great product
So glad you are loving your mount! And so happy to hear it arrived to you quickly!
👌👍
Great system. Very secure. However I almost broke my GoPro when I tried to stick it to my truck body, my F150 aluminum body!
Yes you do have to watch that. My jeep hood is aluminum as well so I can only stick it to certain parts
