I love activities that would allow me to be my (kid)self and try daring rides just for kicks. 

A few months ago, GoPro invited us to try out the new GoPro Hero 7 Black at Enchanted Kingdom. It was like any kid’s ultimate dream – to ride all the awesome rides at Enchanted Kingdom without falling in line! 

It was even a bigger dream come true to document our ride experience with such a cool camera that is fit for extreme activities like riding a roller coaster – the new GoPro Hero 7!

OOTD with my GoPro Gear

I have been meaning to write about this experience (and edit the video clips) but it was a challenge to free up space in my laptop and mobile phone (and hey, it took me the whole day to choose and edit videos!)

Anyway, here goes the stories as told by the screen shots from the GoPro Here 7 (without my signature photo edits).

GoPro lent us 3 GoPro Hero 7 cameras to use and the shots were collectively taken by me, @anagon , @omygusgus and @paultheprguy.

During our day with Go Pro, we were provided with the Go Pro Sports Kit (Php 4,049)

The kit includes Chesty (Performance Chest Mount) for immersive hands-free footage from your point of view bundled with Handlebar/Seatpost/Pole Mount for gear-mounted shots. It all comes packed in a convenient compact carrying case.

This kit allowed us to take videos of the rides from our perspective – ensuring that we are still safe during the ride. 

Our mission is to create a 1-minute video featuring our adventures and functions of the new GoPro Hero 7. We had a lot of nice visions but we realized that video and editing is a totally different kind of story-telling. Thankfully, there is a Quick GoPro app that allowed us to instantly edit and create our video. 

The many moods and feels of riding Anchor’s Away

I may not be the first person to own the latest gadgets or camera, but having experienced GoPro Hero 7 made me want it!

Here is the video I edited (took me 1 full day!)
I didn’t include too many transitions and effects so you can really see how the GoPro Hero 7 takes clear and smooth videos. 

I have been meaning to vlog and document my travels through videos (because, I tend to just always appear on other’s people’s vlogs). I want to get serious with it so I have something to look back to (and watch).

I feel that GoPro Hero 7 is just perfect for me because it is small, compact and easy to use. It is also water-proof allowing me to enjoy my rides without having to worry about my camera or gadgets. The GoPro Hero 7 allowed me to record the rides smoothly – giving you guys the first person perspective. I hope that by watching the videos we took, we were able to bring you to the same thrilling experience. 

During the whole day adventure, I didn’t use my camera to take pictures; instead I had faith in GoPro Hero 7 that its screen captures would provide good quality photos worthy to share in this blog. It didn’t disappoint!
