MikeR47 0 #1 Posted May 26, 2019 Does anyone know of any decent handicam gloves that can hold 2 x GoPro Hero 7 Cameras (one for video, one for photos)? Or has anyone figured out a suitable solution to have 2 x Hero 7 cameras on the arm of the TI? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DougH 270 #2 May 26, 2019 See my response in the gear forum, I didn't know you cross posted, but I responded there. I have one solution I am just trying out, and another one coming if usps ever stops mailing it back and forth across the country that will replace the existing housing on the Pivot pad glove. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DougH 270 #3 May 26, 2019 (edited) Never mind, the system just ate my post and it is gone. Great. Ok here we go again. I connected with a guy named Joe on Facebook, his Facebook business page is under the name Triple D. He is doing a bunch of 3d printing. He had a stock glove setup, and he also printed a sweet double go-pro 7 mount for the front of my FTP that replaces the porch. I haven't put a ton a jumps on the glove, so I am still trying to figure out if I like how it sits lower on my hand instead of higher and further back. Makes it closer to the student and I have t-rex arms, but I like the simplicity of the setup. Camera are retained by friction and two spring loaded gates. Very snug fit on the cameras, I might actually sand slightly so they slide in easier. Joe was great to work with, and I would definitely recommend buying stuff from him if you like the design.

TheCaptain 2 #4 May 28, 2019 The mount works with the pivot glove which can be purchased just the glove portion at chutingstar. I love this mount, it is clean, simple to use. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCaptain 2 #5 May 28, 2019 here is where to get the glove portion http://www.chutingstar.com/camera/skydive-video-gear/skydiver-hand-mounts/pivot-pad-glove Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DougH 270 #6 May 28, 2019 That is actually the second mount that I have in transit. I already have the pivot pad base, although the velcro could probably use a refresh after 6 years of use! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCaptain 2 #7 May 28, 2019 (edited) My second Gopro hero 7 will be here today(their trade up thing took about a week and a half ) so I will have mine on line this coming weekend. I took it up with just one in shooting video on a couple of tandems this past weekend and it works great. Camera locations are almost identical to the pivot dual stack housing for the Gopro3-4.

DougH 270 #8 May 29, 2019 @TheCaptain, how snug is the lower camera in that mount? I think Juan has added a shock cord to the version that is being sent to me that goes around the part where the lens juts out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCaptain 2 #9 May 29, 2019 (edited) I believe I got one of the the very first ones Juan made. The lower camera was very tight I took a dremel and loosened it up a bit it is still a snug fit and snaps in place. I suggested the additional bungee and explained that I loosened the lower one up. Juan added the bungee I would assume he would have loosened up the lower one. Juan has been great to work with and I love the design.

TheCaptain 2 #10 May 29, 2019 (edited) Doug to more accurately describe how tight the lower camera fit in initially (and again this was one of the very first mounts made and I would assume Juan has addressed this) I could push it in but I personally felt if I did I would have trouble getting it back out so that is why I took and made the opening a little bit less tight.

DougH 270 #11 May 30, 2019 That is great, thanks for the extra info. It looks like USPS is never going to deliver the first part from Juan, so he is going to send another. You are right, he is also a great guy to work with. It mirrors my experience with Joe from Triple D. 3d printing has definitely been a great game changer.

Where did you get the camera mount. I have the pivot glove and really like this gopro 7 setup. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCaptain 2 #13 October 27, 2019 The guy who made the one I have his name on Facebook is Juan RS he is in Colorado. He sells the mount for around $45. I I believe it would work an 8 on top and a 7,6,OR 5 bottom. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Samir86 0 #14 December 1, 2019 Hi Capitan, I tried to look on FB for this guy who made glove, but there are to many Juan RS, please could you send profile link? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCaptain 2 #15 December 2, 2019 Samir86, I sent Juan a link to this page to let him know you want to reach him so I would expect him to reach out to you this week Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leomagno 1 #16 April 27, 2020 Hi guys, I wonder if somebody can share Juan’s contact details? I’m after a double glove for 2 x GoPro 8 and can’t find him on FB. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
