Anthony Walsh! Go Pro Underwater, Above Water, POV Tube Sequence

This was the first time a tube-ride had been captured underwater and above water on the same camera. “That was what was crazy, the focus underwater and above water. I remember, sitting down with Brad Schmidt, watching the footage in a mosquito net in Tahiti, and we yelled so loud, people could hear us next door screaming. Kelly Slater was on that trip too. He didn’t want to use the backpack mount and that night we showed him the footage and he said, ’Ok, you gotta set it up for me now!’ The next day the swell died, and he never got a good shot.“ Images pulled from the sequence became GoPro billboards worldwide, including LAX.
