Review:
This camera mount is by far the most rigid mount that is over 6″ in length I have tested yet. It has minimal flex therefore the camera is stable and captures a better shot than most other mounts. The mount featured in this review is the one with the Yak Attack style T Bolt gear track attachment also known as the RAM pin lock. This will mount to tracks from YakAttack, Jackson Kayak, Wilderness Systems, and Native along with other manufacturers bases. See the Kayak Rigging 101 Mounting Base Options Article!
Its ability to be bent and molded in any direction is phenomenal! Great for shots extended off the side of the kayak or underwater / top water shots.
This mount has become my new favorite camera mount. I haven’t even scratched the surface on camera angles it can provide.
Get yours at your local kayak dealer or RamMount.com.
