Grenade Grip - Compact Hand Grip for GoPro® HERO Cameras

I must admit that I don't have a gopro camera - I have a knock off that I got from one of those deal-a-day sites that starts with W and rhymes with boot. I was a little concerned that it wouldn't work with the mount on my model. However, it does fit my Swann Freestyle 1080p action cam. There wasn't really a convenient way to hold the camera and since I was planning on taking it scuba diving, I needed something easier. Enter the Grenade Grip - very handy and fits the camera perfectly. The viewing angle is adjustable and the wrist strap is very convenient as well. The only small complaint that I have about it is that it took on water when diving. There is a small hole on the bottom that allowed water to collect inside it. I didn't notice until back in my hotel room as I was packing everything back up, I was dripping water all over the place. But if you need a nice convenient way to hold your camera (while diving or other type of sports) this is your thing - why gopro or swann didn't make one of these to begin with is beyond me, but I'm glad this company did!

I give the hand grip itself 5 stars...the "high torque thumbscrew" is (as others have stated) a piece of junk. It broke the 1st time I went to attach a case to the grip. Do yourself a favor & just order a set of aluminum screws that come with a tightening wrench (which you can find all over Amazon for $5-20). Since I bought an extra case with the intention of leaving it attached to this grip all the times, I find this no reason to take off a "star" in the rating for this "defect"The wrist strap is PERFECT. I love that it has the cinch so you can tighten it up around your wrist for when you'll be moving & not have to worry about losing grip of the handle (like when my passengers use it on my Harley) ;-)The carabiner is a nice addition for clipping the whole setup to your belt, backpack etc when you're not using it. Also like the fact that you can unscrew the wrist strap & attach it to a tripod. The fitting for this is a good quality brass fitting formed into the plastic. I bought a mini-tripod that is the size of the hand grip so I can set it up on tables etc very easily

I bought this at the last minute for my recent scuba diving trip to use with my GoPro Hero 2. Overall, it worked very well and I was pleased with it. The GoPro mounted soundly to the grip and the camera stayed upright and didn't move on its own.I used it for 8 dives and twice for snorkeling over 4 days to a max depth of 78 ft. I used the wrist strap in case it ever came out of my hand. On the last day of diving, I let a friend use it for his last 2 dives (he did 4 dives that day while I only did 2). When he began to surface to safety stop depth at the end of his dive, he let go of the grip as it was attached to his wrist via the wrist strap. In less than a minute, the wrist strap became unscrewed from the grip and the grip plus my GoPro sank to the bottom to about 40 ft. Fortunately, the dive master saw it happen and retrieved it... otherwise, it would have been lost (kind of funny watching the video but only because I still have my GoPro and you can hear the dive master laughing). My guess is that the (plastic) screw became loose over the 4 days. I'm thinking that plumber's tape may help prevent this in the future but it would be nice to hear from GoPole on this issue.I'd rate this 4 stars if the wrist strap issue hadn't occurred.

I purchased this for a trip to Thailand and it worked well. The handle made it easy to orient the camera while snorkeling and we got lots of great video. The only downside is that there is a small hole in the bottom of the handle which will obviously fill with water. This was only an issue because I didn't notice the small hole at first and just placed the water filled handle in my backpack where it then proceeded to slowly drain water into my bag. This was my fault of course but just something to be aware of. This handle does not make the camera float either so be sure you use the included wrist strap, which was of good quality especially for the price.This handle would have worked well for someone skiing, hiking, or any other activity that has one hand free.I would purchase this product again and recommend it to anyone who needs an inexpensive handle for their GoPRo.

Arrived today and so like a kid on christmas I was excited to open up the package for this Grenade Grip and test it out. Boxing and quality looks good for what you pay. Upon taking it out of the box you'll noticed the nice details of the rubber surrounding the grip and the helpful little attachments it comes with to secure it to your body. Although everything was good the "hi-torque thumbscrew" disintegrated upon first use. Bummer. It seems that I am not the only one with this issue as I see others have left a review regarding the thumbscrew also. It's a good product overall with the included wrist strap attachment and carabiner attachment and I would recommend it but just make sure you have extra GoPro thumbscrews laying around.

When I was in the market for a hand grip for my GoPro, It was really a toss up between this and the bobber. Since I already had a floaty backdoor, this one was cheaper and looked like it had better grip I went with it. So glad I did; this thing is awesome! The build quality is fantastic and it looks super cool. The Grendade Grip has a really good textured handle to help you keep ahold of your camera and such. The grip also comes with a wrist strap and carabiner for some extra securing ability. The bottom of the grip has a threaded hole so it can be mounted to a tripod, which is nice. Just so you know, it is safe to take in water and the entire thing will float with only the floaty backdoor on the GoPro.All in all, this is great value and you'll get some awesome shots with it!

I needed a handle for my GoPro to take it Scuba diving. This handle was sturdy and I never felt like I was going to drop it! I love the handle because of how wide it is (fit nicely in my hand without having death grip on it) but also the height of the whole handle (even with the GoPro attached the whole unit fit into the side pocket of my BCD) for secure entry and exit out of the water. I know I will be using this for many years! (It does not float! please do not expect it to)

BEFORE YOU ORDER A GRENADE GRIP, CHECK THE SELLER!!Looking through the reviews for this item, I found lots of people had received the old version of the GoPole grenade Grip. This is mainly down to the SELLER selling old stock. When I ordered mine, I checked with the seller (SerfSurfSurf North Devon) to make sure I was going to get the new one!Sure enough, within 5 days of ordering my grip, the 2nd generation grenade grip arrived!The grip feels sturdy in the hand - the rubber coating secures it in your hand and provides a non slip grip, which I'm sure would be as grippy if used in water.The 1/4 by 20 inch thread on the bottom allows you to attach it to the included carabineer clip and wrist strap, adding to the sheer versatility of this product. This also means you can mount it to the GoPole base or any 1/4 inch head tripod.The grip also comes with a hi-torque thumbscrew, which allows you to tighten your gopro much stronger than you would with the original gopro thumbscrews, without a wrench. I'm thinking of ordering more of these soon, as they have changed how quick I can tighten my GoPro on the field so dramatically.The grip is such great buy, and for the price there aren't any other grips as versatile as this one out there. I will definitely be buying from GoPole again.

Debated if I should go for this or the Floatie, but went for the Grenade Grip as my usage will be more on dry land.Good size and grip, build quality good too. I'd certainly recommend the product... However, be aware that it did not tightly fit my Hero3, with the camera very loose at maximum tightness, so loose that the grip was unusableAlso comes with no locking screw although already expected that from other reviews.If there was another product out there of the same quality I would return, but as I can't find anything better, I've retrofitted like others and the grip is fine now.Expensive for what it is.w2

Bought this for my GoPro to use undereater, its great, and the wrist strap is a lifesaver.In a way im going to ask and answer my own question right now, I dont see why they couldnt make if float?, there a small hole at the bottom that lets water in, ig they sealed that it would float and you would risk loosing the camera, but they obviously sell a floating one, so thats why, so you have to buy both.

Ich habe mir den Stab für den Sommerurlaub gekauft und dafür war er auch ganz gut aber der einzige Nachteil der Menschen mit einem kleinen Geldbeutel bedrücken könnte ist der, dass der Stab ein bischen teuer ist. Ich bin mir sicher, dass es ein günstigerer Stab auch gebracht hätte.

Used for my GoPro hero 5 . It’s a goodProduct it took a while toCome but when it did I was satisfied
