I did a similar thing using a gaff. got some great underwater fooatge of a marlin we caught up in exmouth.

also saw some cool stuff over in hawaii with these cameras. using a tripod as a fulcrum and a really long pole. the rig had a tilting head setup made out of pvc plumbing fittings and a rope to adjust it. the possibilities are endless.

you should see what spotty has setup!

For those interested

I have put up a real world example of a shoot with the Go pro steadicam in action -

The rig was super handy for this shoot as

-it let me get the camera up over the crowd (for establishing and scale shots)

-as well as some nice stabilisation for tracking (walking along and shooting) of the dancers - it was one of four cameras - but you should be able to pick the go pro shots from the wide fov
