- POV surfing with the Insta360 X4
These POV angles of surfing gives you a good idea what it feels like to paddle out and surf. Special thanks to Insta360 for sending me the X4 and accessories to test. Thanks to Yves Bright for giving it a go!

Thanks for watching. I'm Brad Jacobson and I'll sea ya on the sand. - Спорт
I have been using the X3 and now X4 for over a year surfing and love it. The lens protrude outward and water drops are a real problem. I mount the camera either on the nose of my longboard or use a homemade floating selfie stick made from PVC pipe. So fun to edit surfing clips in the Insta360 Studio on my PC.
My mouth mount is like yours but I use it with the mount down - better balance and not a distraction IMO. That looks like a fantastic camera though!
Definitely the last one right beside his head is a better angle and probably more confortable for the surfer. I like the first angle thru the pier also but the fear of losing the camera just holding on while biting probably not the best. Unless put a leash on the camera as well. You have a good friend for trying out the camera for you.
Wow, great camera (friend and surfer). They're all interesting, but the first angle w/handheld or mouth seem to give the best perspective, though challenging to manage. While I'd like to try my gp hero 8 on the board, I don't know if there's any way I can do it w/o distracting from actual surfing (or whatever I'm doing) or so as to help my learning. Some months ago, I used it snowboarding, but w/so many photos and videos, plus work to do, I have yet to watch it. Anyway, what's great about channels like yours, Brad, is that it's not just about surfing - but camera audio, photography, storytelling, technique, and videography.☮️
I so wanna get a Insta360! Works amazing on Motorcycle POV’s too. This set up would be best mounted on the board or by free hand I think
😊 Thx Brad
Love the videos Brad.
You're narration makes the videos for sureeeeeeeee-- Yewww from the east coast
The cam is on a leash right? Why not wear it on a headstrap?
Do you think a chest mount would work? If your chest is up when paddling I would expect it to work?
Be fun to see at the wedge on a day that's pumping when you get sand drilled at the end. Hope it has GPS when it gets torn off your victim er volunteer.
