Product Description

The GoPro The Handler 3 | Floating Hand Grip (Model: AFHGM-003) gives you a solid, comfortable, non-slip grip for stable footage — and if it's ever dropped in the water, the bright orange end cap pops straight to the surface, making it easy to spot and retrieve. Perfect for surfing, kayaking, wakeboarding, and any water sport where you want your camera close at hand but never truly at risk of sinking.

The built-in quick-release Quick Connect base (Mounting Buckle/Thumbscrew NOT included) lets you swap between mounts in seconds. The included wrist lanyard adds extra security so a rogue wave doesn't tear the grip from your hand in the first place.

Key Features:

  • Floats If Dropped: The bright orange end cap pops to the surface, making a dropped camera easy to spot and retrieve.
  • Comfortable, Non-Slip Grip: Stable, secure hold for smoother footage than shooting handheld without it.
  • Quick-Release Base: Switch between mounts in seconds.
  • Included Wrist Lanyard: Extra security so the grip doesn't get ripped from your hand in rough water.
  • Built for Water Sports: Ideal for surfing, kayaking, wakeboarding, and more.

⚠️ Important Notes & Compatibility Warnings

  • Use at your own risk: Hero Gear is not responsible for loss or damage to cameras or equipment used in conjunction with this accessory.
  • NOT a Life-Saving Device: This product is designed to keep your camera afloat if dropped — it is NOT a life-saving device.
  • Always Use the Wrist Lanyard: Always secure the included wrist lanyard to your hand or arm during water activities — rough waves can rip an unstrapped grip from your hand.
  • Depth Limit for Buoyancy: Foam compression under high pressure can reduce buoyancy beyond 33ft (10m). Not designed or tested for deep diving use.
  • 360° Cameras — Underwater Stitching: If used with a 360° camera, footage captured underwater may suffer from stitching distortion — this grip is designed to float a dropped camera on the surface, not for genuine underwater 360° capture.
  • Quick Connect Buckle Required: This grip does NOT include a Quick Connect Buckle — one must be purchased separately to attach any camera.
  • Compatible Models Only: Fits the camera models listed above ONLY. NOT compatible with any other model or brand.
  • Warranty Coverage: Warranty covers manufacturing defects only. Damage resulting from use, misuse, accidents, falls, or any activity-related incident is NOT covered — regardless of the activity involved.
