The amount of times I have seen this product mentioned must mean it is decent. When I get my GoPro I will be for sure trying it out.

I picked up the sandmarc pole a month ago and love it. i can't compare it to others, but it's much better than the stick I was using that I picked up in hawaii a year ago, haha. Makes it easy to shoot away from me/the pole and then flip it to shoot selfies. I had it fully extended, out my trucks window going 70mph over the weekend, no issues. The twist locks seem nice as well. No complaints at all. Here is a referral link to save 10% if you buy it from them. It's also on amazon with free shipping if you have prime.
Not sure if the link will work, but here it is out the window: https://38.media.tumblr.com/82fc1d14de6205e6b6a18763fe2a2861/tumblr_n9tgt8HFk51qeigmjo2_1280.jpg
edit: I have no expierence with the GoPole, so I can't say one is better then another, I just liked the price of the sandmarc, went with it and I'm happy with it. The wrist strap seems to be holding in there and the mount at the end looks just like a GoPro original. Let me know if you have any questions about it.
So, For an extension pole I was looking at the Sandmark

Would you say the Dolica is better?
Thanks /u/lamic
I looked through your post and recommendations, it looks awesome! I know I really should wait for the Hero5 but I'm not sure if I can wait.
I started to put a list of things I want/need into a spreadsheet, to start looking at Price. I have Amazon Prime so I'm thinking about ordering everything through Amazon.
Can you take a quick look through my list and see if everything checks out and if I missed anything for "Basic" operations? Then could you make any more recommendations, or let me know what my next purchases should be?
So with everything in my cart I’m sitting at $488 which is with in my budget.
I’m still reading about the remote. That might be something we add down the line. I think I’ll be pretty content with just my phone app or getting the “waterproof touch screen” case cover too.
Do you think this is a good setup? Will this get me going? Do you have any recommendations, or anything that I should add or not buy yet?
I just bought the sandmarc pole last week for my new go pro:

So far I really like it. I wanted something small enough to fit in a backpack to take snowboarding or traveling. It fits the bill perfect. Customer service was excellent as well. I took it apart to wash after it was in some salt water, lost one of the plastic tabs that provides friction. I emailed asking if i could pay for a replacement. They said they were going to mail them to me for free.
Uk owner here:
I’d say best is either
Or
But if you want a compact one (which I don’t recommend for action shots)
Either
OR
Go Pro smart remote is worth it. I have the 3 way pivot arm from go-pro and my only complaint is that I cannot mount the remote on the pole like some third party poles
