My son loves long boarding.  If you’re not familiar with what long boarding is, it’s like skateboarding but on a long board.  There aren’t many tricks involved with long boarding as with skateboarding but the speed a long board achieves is incredible and pretty scary, to me at least, sometimes.   Sebastian even made his own longboard that sports bright green wheels and a snazzy grip tape design.  When my Dad offered to let him use his new GoPro to film himself on his longboard during a visit to his house, his excitement was too much to contain!  He hooked the GoPro to the board and took off like a… pro!

Here’s the first video he shot on my Dad’s GoPro, the one that inspired him to add a GoPro to every wish list he’ll create until he gets one. 🙂

With the holidays coming up, a GoPro is on the top of the list for many teens and adults and Best Buy is the place to go to check them out and buy a GoPro.

Best Buy has three new GoPro’s for you to check out; the GoPro HERO4 Black, GoPro HERO4 Silver, and GoPro HERO.

The GoPro HERO4 Black is the most advanced GoPro ever. It features improved image quality and a 2x more powerful processor with 2x faster video frame rates1, HERO4 Black takes award‐winning GoPro performance to a whole new level.

GoPro HERO4 Silver is the first-ever GoPro to feature a built-in touch display. Controlling The camera, playing back footage and adjusting settings is ultra-convenient—just view, tap and swipe the screen. With 1080p60 and 720p120 video, and 12MP photos at a staggering 30 frames per second, HERO4 Silver combines powerful, pro-quality capture with the convenience of a touch display.

The GoPro HERO featuring high‐quality 1080p30 and 720p60 video, and 5MP photos up to 5 fps, HERO captures the same immersive footage that’s made GoPro one of the best-selling cameras in the world.

Best Buy is the home of the latest cameras and camcorders, including the full line of new GoPro cameras, plus a broad assortment of accessories. GoPro cameras make perfect holiday gifts for everyone, from kids and teens, to gadget gurus. GoPro’s new line of cameras allow you to beautifully and authentically capture and share the experiences that bring purpose, adventure, and joy to your life.

Can you imagine how cute it would have been to capture a video of your toddler riding his or her first tricycle with a GoPro?  As you can see in the video below of my daughter riding her bike, the faces, emotions and angles the GoPro captures are one-of-a-kind! I crack up every time I watch this video and am so glad to add it to my library of funny videos of Madelyn’s childhood.

If these fabulous videos of my kids aren’t enough to convince you of how great the GoPro is, check out the GoPro videos featured on Best Buy!

Sebastian has all sorts of plans for his future GoPro including ocean, lake, and river kayaking, roller coasters, more long boarding, lacrosse.. you name it, it’s GoPro-able!  My daughter is thinking more along the lines of strapping the GoPro to her head while she shoots a rainbow loom bracelet tutorial for YouTube. 🙂  I think it would be fun to capture video of her on the bars or mat at gymnastics though.. don’t you?
