Mount a GoPro to the fence...

[Josh Greer]

As some on this forum have seen, I make a rugged camera bracket to mount a GoPro (as well as other cameras) to a chain link fence for recording baseball and softball games. We are called LynkSpyder (www.lynkspyder.com). While I am always trying to get the word out on our product, I wanted to take one last chance to let everyone know about a sweepstakes we are currently running to give away a custom Marucci baseball bat (sorry....Marucci has no wooden softball bats). There is no purchase required to enter our sweepstakes. Just follow the instructions on our website with the direct link below:

Below is a picture of our product. We are currently in 38 states and 3 countries. We are passionate about the sport and would love to talk to you about it if you have questions:


Thanks so much,

GoPro has it’s own selection of mounting accessories. However I’ve found that they’re not ideal for many reasons. The little plastic arms are a pain to adjust on the fly, and are limited in their movements.

There are actually better options out there that use a more common 1/4″ screw. Like a RAM mounting system.

RAM mounts use a 1″ rubber ball & socket system for super quick, easy, and secure adjustments on the fly. You can interchange the pieces to mount your GoPro in any way you could imagine! But I’m a minimalist, and only pack accessories with multiple uses.

Totally agree about the accessories. In fact, we designed the LynkSpyder out of the need to reduce bringing so many different mounting options to the field. What would work on some fields wouldn't work on others. The LynkSpyder works on any baseball/softball venue we have traveled to. Store it in a backpack and pull it out when you get to the field. Mounts solid in less than a minute.

But just mounting the camera is half the battle. You also want it to stay in one spot. GoPro's are rugged, but they don't like to bounce. We have never lost a camera and have taken more direct hits than we can remember.
