GoPro Hero 6 Black

September 28, 2017

The latest from GoPro has arrived… Take a look at the GoPro Hero 6 Black that is available worldwide now for $499.99!

Is it time for a new camera? GoPro have released their GoPro Hero 6 camera for all of you to get your hands on. The latest camera in the GoPro lineup has seen a few changes since the release of the Hero 5 that came out last year. The big one is that the camera now utilizes 4K at 60 frames per second and it can also film at 1080P at 240 frames per second for crispy slow motion shots. Add that capability in with their new GP1 chip that optimizes the capture for smoother stabilized footage and vastly improved image quality, which is a big improvement over the Hero 5. Add in that it’s waterproof up to 33 ft without a housing and you have a high quality, durable and affordable camera that you can take anywhere you go. Below you can get a taste of the quality this little camera can produce…

“Walk away from every adventure with incredible looking footage—and an awesome story to share. Introducing HERO6 Black with QuikStories. It’s a whole new game, and a whole new GoPro.”

Need to edit your footage? No need for a computer, you can edit the footage right on your phone like it has in the past, just more efficiently and automatically with the QuikStories app. GoPro have also improved the WiFi transfer rate, so it has never been faster and easier to create a video in high quality with little effort!

The GoPro Hero 6 Black is available now through Amazon, the GoPro website or through GoPro dealers worldwide now for $499.99.

Brad Simms – Jumping Over A Car

September 28, 2017

Brad Simms sent over another short but sweet video he put together from a session he caught jumping over a car. No, he’s not launching over the car from flat (even though sometimes we think he probably could), but it’s still a heavy gap. After he jumped it, he proceeded to also send a big 180 over it, too! Check out what went down.

“Fulfilled another childhood dream by jumping over a car.”
