What up my Steemians, welcome to the @D00k13 Digest, let's go to the river and water test my GoPro Hero 5. Today Cory and Carol, Melissa's brother and his wife, came into town and wanted to meet us for a swim before heading home to Dave's for burgers and his famous potato salad. This is officially my first water test with the GoPro and I am very pleased with the results, looks like I am ready for tubing down the river on Sunday! Lots of interesting footage from our swim but with this video I am focusing more on the testing side and capturing the action of jumping off the rocks into the water.
We jumped in and swam to the other side of the river, the native reserve side has better areas to just chill in the water without facing the current. I always loved swimming here at Papermill Dam as a kid, I would challenge myself to swim upstream against the current so you can imagine I am a fairly strong swimmer. I never did jump off the big rock as I was afraid of dropping the camera into the depths never to be seen from again but I did capture my first jump in and a dive in. The Camera transitions in and out of the water with ease and even seems to get decent audio while underwater, this will make our lazy tube ride down the river more entertaining for me.
It is always awesome when Cory and Carol come down from the interior, Kamloops, to visit as we get along famously and they were super impressed with this video I put together. They want a copy to share with their friends, I agreed but only after I post it to @DTube. I explained to them how my blog & vlog posts on Steemit work and they are super interested. Cory said he will start recording his outings with his GoPro if I can show him how to do edits and where to upload so he can share it with friends. I may have Cory convinced to try DTube out, just consistently on-boarding whom ever when ever I can while still enjoying what I love to do! I told Cory I would be willing to put the video together for him, I love doing the edits with this GoPro software and I will most likely continue using it for my action sequences on my vlogs even after returning home.
All in all today was a hot but awesome day with family and friends, doing what we love, what vacation life is all about, back in our home town of Port Alberni.
