I started my search for a GoPro pole knowing that I wanted one that offered aluminum construction so I didn't have to worry about rust via saltwater, aluminum camera mount/thumbscrew for added strength compared to ones that are made out of plastic, and a wrist tether for added piece of mind. I love my Sandmarc Metal Edition Pole! It's design and build quality is top notch, I agree that it could be used as self defense weapon if needed. The hand grip and wrist tether are very helpful while SCUBA diving. The pole will fill with water once it's submerged, but the water quickly is purged out of the opening where the wrist tether is mounted on the bottom of the hand grip when the pole is completely retracted to it's shortest height. This enables you to unscrew the top aluminum camera mount after your finished SCUBA diving and flush the inside of the pole with freshwater to get ride of any saltwater. The angle of the aluminum camera mount allows you to mount your GoPro at both selfie and a forward facing. In either direction, the mount allows the user to fine tune the desired camera angle by hand without loosening the pole's thumbscrew. The almost 90 degree angle while forward facing at any pole length combined with the built-in display on the Hero 4 Silver is very helpful while SCUBA diving (see my attached photo for example).Like other reviewers have stated, the loosening/tightening clamps only need to be turned a few rotations for the pole to be extended or collapsed. You will feel a slight pressure release when you have begun to loosen the clamps, then the pole pieces will then move freely. The SP Gadgets Smart Mount for the GoPro Smart Remote fits nicely on this pole. While there are cheaper poles on the market, do some research on what they are constructed of and what kind of user reviews they have. For the price, I feel that this pole will serve me well for years in any type of conditions.

Ordered this for my husband for his new GoPro9. He's had other poles before that were cheaply made and just not built to last. This one you can tell is a quality product. It has a built on mount so you dont have to worry about switching it out with another mount. It has the built in wrist strap which is nice because the past ones were screwed into the bottom handle and always fell out over time some how. The grip on the handle is good and the pole itself extends and folds back with no issues, even after being in water. The only gripe he has is that the nut on the end of the screw mount is easy to lose but other than that, he loves it!

I have not had a chance to test this pole thoroughly but I just received to the pole and it’s construction feels very well made. I do know from another brand that if you unscrew it to much the locking mechanism can become damaged. the pole itself still locked but some of the plastic designed for locking broke and came out(it still locked though) So not a huge deal. Just note this pole is NOT the same brand as my last pole and am not trying to recreate the issue. So I just unscrew it slowly and be careful. So just make sure you follow that rule and you should be good. Anyways the pole is 50 inches as advertised. I made sure to check that first, because someone wrote a review saying it was around 40 inches. This company sells another smaller 40 inch pole so maybe he got one of those on accident OR didn’t realize the very top piece extends as well. I could see how that happened because it was kinda hard to see the last extension, but who knows. Anyways I will test it this winter because I do a lot of backcountry splitboarding. So will update my review maybe sometime next year. All in all, it is advertised as said and look forward to testing it. Also I paid full price and received no discount for this review by the company. I am very happy so far!

This selfie stick pole thing feels like quality material which I was nervous about from other brands. I took it out and used it on the slopes when I went shredding. I will say because it’s so close to the camera, it’s a little difficult to screw in the GoPro to this and then as some point even with the backing in, I may not have tightened it enough but the backing for the screw that holds the go pro on got lost. That’s an easy fix though. Overall it’s a great durable product that works really well! Just wish the design was slightly different so that screwing in the GoPro isn’t as much of a pain.

Sandmarc has a good product here! Back story...I ordered this extension pole to be used with a GoPro camera in water applications. I could not find another extension pole that is waterproof at the length this provides! However, I used it for about 3 weeks before I came into some problems. The adjustable wrist strap detached from the grip and the extension pole piece that had the handle would no longer tighten and hold together. I ended up wrapping the strap around the grip, and I taped the pole pieces together, but both these problems left me wondering how secure the pole would be after this, especially with an expensive camera on the end of it. This left me upset because I thought I had a good find and the product was working so well for the time I used it! I ended up reaching out to the manufacture to see what they could do for me. Not only did they respond to my concerns within 24 hours, they sent me a brand new pole (no additional charges, no shipping costs, nor did they asked me to send the defective pole back) by the end of the week! Although I had some product complications in the beginning, Sandmarc has great customer service and is quick to address your concerns. I will 100% recommend them and use their products again! Thank you Sandmarc!

Was free diving underwater and when I came up my new GoPro missing. I found the screw at the top (not connected to the GoPro) but the one on the stick for extension was loose. Allowing for the GoPro and the top stick to fall right out… It’s a really bad design. I had other sticks i used for years with no problems but I got a new GoPro 13 and within the first 5 dives I lost it due to this. If you do get it be very careful underwater. Make sure everything is extremely tight.

Je l'ai acheté afin de filmer les requins et tortues au Costa Rica pour ma go pro, la perche est solide et robuste, facilement réglable et ne s'oxyde pas du tout après contact à l'eau de mer suivi d'un rinçage à l'eau douce. Très pratique !!

I really like the Sandmarc Pole - Metal Edition. I find it to be very sturdy and well built. I have it mounted to a GoPro Hero 5. I previously had a GoPole Evo which i found to be very flimsy which is not the case with the SandMarc. I also really like the wrist strap and metal mount at the top for attaching the camera. My only minor complaints are that the wrist strap is permanently attached and there is no threading at the bottom of the handle to place it on a tripod or other attachment.

Buscaba un buen palo para mis aventuras con la GoPro, y este cumple perfectamente las expectativas. Es un palo muy robusto y fiable, fácil de extender y de utilizar. Puede parecer caro, pero por la calidad merece la pena.Hay otros comentarios con más detalles, asà que sólo 3 consejos:1. Si está extendido al máximo, pesa un poco, pero se puede soportar (y, además, es natural que eso pase…)2. Evita desenroscar completamente las 3 roscas. Se puede desmontar y montar fácilmente, la cual cosa es ideal para mantenerlo limpio y en buen estado, pero si se te desmonta en medio de la aventura, puedes perder algunas de las pequeñas piezas que lleva en el interior.3. Asegúrate de apretar bien la rosca de trÃpode al palo. Si no lo haces, se podrÃa llegar a aflojar.Con todo, fue una gran compra. Llevo meses utilizándolo, en el rÃo, en el mar, en la montaña, esquiando… Plegado queda muy compacto, cabe en cualquier mochila, y extendido añade un gran campo de visión a tus tomas, siempre sintiéndose robusto y seguro.PD: La atención al cliente, antes y después de la compra, excelente!

ich habe bisher noch nie eine rezension auf amazon geschrieben.aber ich bin so begeistert von diesem stick, dass ich heute mal damit anfange :-)vor dem sandmarc hatte ich schon diverse andere teleskopstangen, z.b. von "gopole".die hatten alle eines gemeinsam: mangelnde verarbeitung.irgendwann hatte ich dann immer mitten im urlaub einzelteile in der hand, weil die stange sich zerlegt hat oder irgendwas abgebrochen ist.und das waren keine billigen produkte, gerade der "gopole" ist ziemlich teuer.den sandmarc hatte ich mir vor meiner letzten reise gekauft, weil alle meinen anderen stangen nicht mehr zuverlässig waren.während der reise habe ich dann ausgiebig gefilmt (wandern, kayaken, unter wasser, aus dem bus heraus, aus dem zug heraus) und konnte den stick ausgiebig testen. und ich bin BEGEISTERT! das system mit den verstellschrauben geht superschnell, sobald man es ein paar mal gemacht hat. die stange macht einen sehr sehr sehr zuverlässigen eindruck, ich hatte nie angst dass sich etwas lösen könnte. bei meinen alten sticks war da immer angst da. die urlaubsvideos sind super geworden, besonders die aufnahmen mit der maximal ausgezogenen stange sehen super aus. das teil ist schon echt laaaaang :-)dass die stange nicht in minirucksäcke passt, ist klar. das kann man ja nachmessen, bevor man die stange kauft. daher kann ich hier eine andere rezension nicht nachvollziehen, wo sich jemand über die länge beschwert. ich hatte einen normalen "daypack" für tageswanderungen dabei und da hat die stange gerade so reingepasst, allerdings ohne montierte gopro. mit gopro passt es definitiv nicht. aber das muss es auch nicht, dann schaut es halt zur not etwas aus dem rucksack heraus. in der regel habe ich die stange eh die ganze zeit in der hand um jederzeit filmbereit zu sein. im flugzeug sollte man solche stangen eh nicht mitnehmen (kann am flughafen verweigert werden), daher finde ich auch hier einen negativen kommentar zur länge als blödsinnig. we bitteschön kauft sich denn diesen stick MIT WISSEN über die länge und beschwert sich dann nachträglich über genau diese länge? verstehe ich einfach nicht... :-)ok eine sache muss ich noch loswerden:NACH meiner reise wollte ich die stange ordentlich mit klarem wasser säubern und habe sie dafür komplett "zerlegt", indem ich die schrauben komplett abgeschraubt habe. versehentlich kann einem das nicht passieren, da muss man schon sehr sehr lange schrauben bis die schrauben abgehen. aber wenn man sie abhat, kann man die stange in ihre 3 einzelstangen zerlegen und grüdnlich säubern. dabei habe ich fast die plastikdichtungen verloren, die bei jeder stange dafür sorgen, dass man sie nicht versehentlich zu weit herauszieht. quasi sicherheitsringe, die an den enden der einzelstangen befestigt sind. nach dem säubern war ich dann zu doof, die einzelteile wieder zusammenzusetzen. ich dachte erst, die stange sei kaputt. habe dann kurzerhand den sandmarc support online kontaktiert und innerhalb von 15 minuten hatte ich eine antwort! erst hat man mir angeboten, mit die plastikdichtungen kostenlos neu zuzuschicken. dann habe ich erklärt, dass ich sie nicht verloren habe, sondern dass ich die teile nur einfach nicht mehr zusammengesetzt bekomme. weitere 15 minunten später kam eine email mit einem link zu einem erkläre-video, in dem genau das zerlegen und zusammensetzen der stange erklärt wird. damit konnte ich meine stange in 10 sekunden wieder zusammensetzen (man muss da ganz leicht drehen, da ist der "trick") und jetzt ist sie wieder wie neu. ich habe selbst beruflich sehr viel mit customer support zu tun, und der sandmarc support für dieses kleine problem von mir war EXZELLENT!ich kann diese stange jedem empfehlen, der eine qualitativ hochwertige, einfach zu bedienende und laaaange stange benötigt :-)

Un pò costoso ma vale tutti i soldi spesi, l'intera asta è fatta di alluminio leggero. Non da segno di piegarsi e appare molto resistente, di ottima fattura. Poi ha un sistema con due blocchi, avvitando i due fermi l'asta non rientra e rimane estesa. Nella confezione troviamo l'asta e la vite per fissare la gopro.AGGIORNAMENTO 01/07/2015una delle giunture si è rotta e quando si allungava l'asta l'ultimo pezzo "usciva fuori" completamente.Dopo aver parlato con il negozio Sandmarc mi è stata inviata un'asta sostitutiva in 2 giorni. Un servizio fantastico
