I am developing a SeaDoo ski plyon GoPro swivel that follows a wakeboarder or tuber etc. Just looking to see if there is any intrest from fellow PWC'ers. Still in the design process but is should be really awsome to have the GoPro follow the rope automatically. Comments?

Looks very cool! BUT the gopro has a very wide angle lens, and won't work well for filming someone being towed. I would make it a standard 1/8" tripod mount head, that way your target market would be larger and it would still be compatible with gopros as long as you have the tripod mount.
 
Mlars, I thought about the tripod mount and that could still be an option, but my concern would be that once you tightened to the base the camera may not be lined up straight with the rope. Also if you set up the GoPro with the narrow setting you will get much closer cleaner video.
