Would this still float if the GoPro was attached to a hand grip?

Dear, might it cannot. Though the item can make float, prevent the GoPro Hero 2 or Hero 3 camera from sinking. So you don't have to worry about losing it in the water.Notes: Floaty will not support the weight of the suction cup mount which is not recommended for high impact water sports.

Actually I just tested this and if you use the Floaty Backdoor by GoPro, this pole will float.

Nope! There's a tripod mount already installed on the top of the handle! All you have to do is screw the bottom of the GoPro waterproof housing into it :)

No. Headstrap is heavy elastic band with heavy plastic buckles and camera mount. The strap will definitely not float with the camera attached. The foam float for the camera would be required to float the camera and the strap/

No it will not. As a matter of fact, the hollowed pole will fill with water, causing it to sink. Just tighten the strap to your wrist and you'll be fine, unless you really need it to float, if thats the case then you might want to consider something else .

The clamp itself held tight, but the supporting bolts in the gopro housing are liable to unravel due to vibration. Had I tethered my camera I wouldn't have lost it.Gopro do advise that these aren't the best means of attaching cameras :0)

It does not float in the water BUT GoPro does make a back for your GoPro that does float which works great!

If you attach a short rope between the handle and your neck before you throw it in, sure it will float. There is no generator on this unit so feel free to tie your dog to another generator before you thow this unit in the lake.

Not sure what you mean, but if you are asking if the top of the Buoy Floater that connects to the GoPro camera unscrews to mount on a regular tripod, then the answer is no.

This is meant to be a bobber (floating) device so it basically is small and fits in the palm of my hands with as well as without the go pro. If you have freakishly small hands then it could be bigger but not by much. Lol

No its not possible to hold on to the grip and place ur camera at the other end. It doesnt have the functionality to do so. This is not one of those monopods that you can take selfies with. And when you mean it can get wet and will not hinder its functions? Then yes

Not really... I've stayed away from the head strap while on the water due to security and the strap I have is heavy enough to pull the floaty under... If you use a helmet and mount you could probably get the shot you want.

I think it would float if you sealed it up good, but it is top heavy so it will probably tip over and not stay upright.

Yes, I bought this one for a gopro4, I haven't try this under water but it looks like it would work. Hope this helps.

If you are just using it as a still mount then no problem.........Moving on......may be a problem........It holds my GoPro on my boat at 85 mph just fine, but the GoPro weighs considerably less than the Cannon.

In general, it will. The pole is not very buoyant, it's made of metal and has very little floatation itself. The floaty is enough to keep it from sinking too quickly, but if you let it go and just leave it alone, then it will slowly sink down. That said, I used the pole with my GoPro and Floaty in the lake for 2 weeks and the Bahamas for a week, and never lost it.

It should float, but that will depend on how much air you squeezed out when closing it.
