MyGo got a call from O'Neill's Head of Marketing the day before Big Wednesday asking for a grip of MyGo Mouth Mounts to give out to Jordy Smith, Timmy Reyes, and others from the O'Neill team to have for the big day.
Even through the early morning haze, everyone could tell that this day was going to be massive. It was already 18ft and building AND cleaning up as the morning went on.
With the size came a shift in the mood for the surfers paddling out - this was serious - and so most of the boys opted to go charge without the added worry of a GoPro®, except for two; Koa Smith and Ethan Carlston.
Koa got an incredible barrel that clamped on him and stole his GoPro®, so please, if you find it send us the memory card at least!
Ethan got spit out of an incredible barrel with the MyGo Mouth Mount for the entire beach to see, and for the rest of us to see through his point of view!
Congrats to all of the chargers that got a giant gaping vision on Wednesday August 27, because most of us were plenty happy to just watch.

Do you like barrels? I advise that you watch Slaber Nackle on Alex Gray's website Turkey Melt. It is a collection of "a fist full of slabs across the planet." In one of the best shots in the movie Alex is using the GoPro Hero 3+ and a mouth mount. He transfers the camera to get the behind view in this massive open barrel and then he casually looks back at the camera. Just the other day Alex messaged MyGo about our MyGo Mouth Mount for GoPro. We're excited to have him using our product and we can't wait to see the footage he is going to get.
Alex & Koa Smith are on board with the MyGo Mouth Mount for GoPro®. Their new video, Inside Out, is playing on their site LastNameFirst.tv. Point of View shots in surfing are becoming increasingly popular. All of the boys are now into getting images using the GoPro® mouth mount.
They are going to be receiving their MyGo Mouth Mounts soon! Click here to order your MyGo mouth mount today.
