I have had a Sandmarc GoPro Pole<\/a> on test for the last few weeks and follows hot on the heals of the GoPole Evo.<\/p>\n

\"SANDMARC_Metal_Edition_GoPro_Pole_1_1024x1024\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Specification:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Designed in California – Sandmarc GoPro<\/a> Pole Fits all GoPro\u00ae Hero Cameras (including GoPro\u00ae Hero 4)
\nExtends up to 102 cm, Retracts 43 cm
\nWaterproof, Lightweight and Compact (0.25 kgs)
\nAluminum Locks, Aluminum Tripod Mount & Thumbscrew. Lifetime Warranty.
\nIncluded: Rubber Grip, Adjustable Wrist strap, Tripod Mount, and Thumbscrew<\/p>\n

The unit is essentially an all alloy construction with the only non metal parts being the grip, and lanyard. <\/p>\n

\"Sandmarc<\/a><\/p>\n

The pole is divided in to three sections. When fully retracted it sits at 43cm and when fully extended 102cm. There is no issue fitting this inside of a rucksack or even within the back of a boat. <\/p>\n

\"Sandmarc<\/a><\/p>\n

The pole<\/a> can be adjusted via two points. A twist lock secures each section in place. A quarter turn unlocks and locks each section. On the end of the pole is a GoPro compatible mount. This is detachable so it is possible to use the pole with another camera system if a standard screw-on mount is available or is integrated within the camera or mount. This fitting can be used on a normal tripod so is a nice little touch.<\/p>\n

\"Sandmarc<\/a><\/p>\n

Oddly on this Sandmarc GoPro Pole everything is black with the exception of the mount which can be best described as a gun metal grey. There is another pole system named the black edition<\/a> which has a black mount.<\/p>\n

Compared to the GoPole pole the Sandmarc system<\/a> is far more robust but with a small penalty of additional weight. Sandmarc offer a lifetime warranty on their products.<\/p>\n
