    Unfortunately, the spring provided so much friction that by manually twisting the rope, it would actually spin the mount. I had to use 100% of the weights to let the mount even have a chance of overcoming the friction of the spring.

    So I'll have to try again with no spring and less weight.

    So he's going to send me a couple new stoppers and I'm going to also try it w/o the spring.

    Watching the video makes me seasick!

    Put some Rainex or aquapel on the inside and outside of the waterproof case. You won't get that fog or water spots. I Would take out the spring and lighten the weight. Learned when it swings like that it's too heavy on the bottom

    Right, that's what he advised. BUT, I had to have tons of weight because of that stupid spring. So the spring is for sure coming out. he's also sending me new stoppers.

    This dude makes other quality products. When boating season rolls around again (yes, mine is put away for the winter), I'll be picking up this mount. But for my most recent trip to Idaho, I picked up this rear fender bag, to get some weight off my back. Hank over and ZenXteN makes some other sweet products for other sports too.



    Sorry for the crappy pic of the fender bag, I just wanted to show off my other sport, and give Hank some props. haha... Check out his site for amazing products...

    Default Progress..

    Thanks for the promo blake.. just a note I had a breakthrough this last week.. got interest from a company and found huge benefits to a design change that came when I started playing with the tube design.. check out how stable it is.. virtually no swaying without using electronics / gimbal.. saweet..
