Used the "handlebar" mount and just clamped it to the end of my handle.

That makes a ton of sense. I guess I'd worry about the cam on the handle when the rope was dropped and bouncing and dragging in the water... seems like the handle gets a lot of abuse!

I used it slaloming and fell at 32 mph without it coming off, but still, I have the floaty backdoor on it. Also, I instruct anyone driving my boat that once someone falls, you slow down to idle and never go faster than that all the way back to the rider/skier.

Makes sense. Heck, that's a good rule of thumb anyway! It sure is that way for me when I'm sacked out in Surf Mode!!!

I think I'm going to have to try that. I have a handlebar mount for my contour that I should try!

Your first issue is wiping out in the first place. Address this issue and no worries about the GoPro skipping off the water with the handle.

Jetlink this goes back to what I was telling you earlier today, not enough practice time!

How are you getting the still 'action' shots with the GoPro - timer or video pulls?

Had it taking pictures every 2 seconds while I was riding.
