Insta360 Makes a Splash With the New X3 Water Sports Rope Mount

First-of-its-kind accessory delivers epic third-person views and 360 capture for kitesurfing and wakeboarding.

Insta360 today announced the Insta360 X3 Water Sports Rope Mount, redefining the standard for kitesurfing and wakeboarding camera mounts.

Designed specifically for Insta360’s leading 360 action camera, Insta360 X3the mount renders the rope or lines supporting the camera invisible, allowing for epic third-person shots.

New Wave of Action Sports

As the zest for 360 adventure sports capture continues to grow, Insta360 X3 has become hugely popular within the wakeboarding and kitesurfing communities, where creators have been capturing incredible videos and photos, mainly with the use of an Invisible Selfie Stick. However, limited mounting options in both sports have made content creation a tough task.

The Insta360 X3 Water Sports Rope Mount has solved this problem by enabling creators to directly mount Insta360 X3 onto a piece of equipment that is fundamental for both sports: the rope.

This simple solution allows for unobstructed third-person capture with no impact on sporting performance.

Setting Up and Easy Mounting

Using Insta360 X3 with the Rope Mount is simpler than other similar options on the market. To install, just loosen the screw at the top to open the case, then gently slide X3 into the mount and secure.

For Kitesurfers: Secure the mount onto the kitesurfing lines. Ensure that the screws are tightened and secure and take care not to mount the screw-fixing side onto the safety line.

For Wakeboarders: Ensure the tow rope passes through both the top and bottom rope buckles. Then make sure the mount is tightly fixed onto the tow rope by the screws.
