Big Wave Hellmen recommend the Grill Mount

Unlike all other GoPro mouth mounts, your airway isn’t blocked with a silicon wall forcing you to get all your air through a small hole in a snorkel mouthpiece held by your front teeth.  With the Grill Mount being held by your molars (back teeth), and no wall in front of your teeth, the footage is more stable and the airflow in and out of your mouth is completely normal. You breathe around the mount instead of trying to breathe through it. In other words, you can breathe, talk and duck dive normally.  This unmatched camera stability and the unimpeded airflow is why more big wave hellmen like Keoni Watson, Darrick Doerner, Tom Butler, Ryan Hipwood and Sebastian Steudtner use the Grill Mount over any other GoPro mouth mount on the market. The fact that it doubles as a mouth guard is just a bonus.

Keoni Jones Interview in GhettoJuiceMag.com

Vissla Clothing and Vertra Sunscreen sponsored pro Keoni Jones has been a big part of the launch of the Pro Standard Grill Mount and we're stoked to see the publicity he's been getting lately.
Here's a link to an interview in Ghetto Juice Mag

Explanation of the delay in shipping the Grill Mount.

I thought I would post up on what the delay is on shipping the parts.

We shot the first test Grill Mounts from the molds on Monday and found that the heat generated in the production was curving the arms of the mount. We went back into the mold and added a little pin on the end of each bite pad so that when the EVA is shot onto the polycarbonate body, the arms don't curve up. The pin holds the end of the arm in place do it can't deflect when the heat is on. It will also get rid of the smiley face at the end of the EVA.



You can see the Extra Beef GoPro Mount that is a stock feature on all the parts we make. Yes... there is more cool stuff coming. It's at least three times as strong as a stock GoPro mount because the nut side takes the thickness of the nut pocket all the way into the tine. Perfect for Dungeons and Cortes Bank as well as epic sessions at Teahupoo.

The slight change has set us back a week and a bit, but we figure it's worth it. After this long in development we want it perfect. The colors you see are the food grade EVA and the food grade polycarb in the raw color. They add dyes to get it the color we want. All the material in the Grill Mount is "Food Grade" so you know there is no nasty chemicals in the part that could leach into your system during a long surf session.

The mold maker says he should have the changes done by Monday AM and we should be able to shoot the next test that day. If everything goes perfect we will drop in the right colors into the mix and press start on the injection molding machine and start pumping them out.

GoPro is celebrating their success with an IPO and we're celebrating our success with an IPA... or a Powder Mountain Lager.  You have to drink the beer that's named after your favorite catskiing resort... Powder Mountain Catskiing and Heliskiing

We should have parts by Friday and shipping the Monday after.

Sorry for the delay, quality takes time.
Ken, Greg, Matt

Thank You For The Support

So amazed at the response to the Grill Mount. When we dropped the Grill Mount, we thought it would take 6-8 months to hit the volume price breaks to get The Grill Mount price down to $29.95. Thanks to all of you, we managed to hit the minimums in a week.

Thanks to everyone for making it happen so quickly.
Special thanks to the people and brands below that helped us with the launch.

Overwhelming Response To The Grill Mount Lets Us Price it $10 Cheaper

When we dropped the Grill Mount last week, we priced it at $39.95, planning on dropping it to $29.95 in 6-8 months once we hit the production volume price breaks to let us do so. Thanks to the overwhelming response to the launch of the Grill Mount, we've managed to hit those numbers in a week. Thank you to everyone that has ordered one so far, you'll get a $10 refund when we ship your Grill Mount. Words can't express how blown away we are. Thank you to everyone that told their friends about it and blew it up on Surfline.com,Surfer and Magicseaweed Surf, facebook and Instagram. We appreciate it more than you'll ever know. #gratitude Keoni Jones at Rocky Point, Hawaii a couple days ago.

Keoni Jones at Rocky Point

Keoni Jones has been a big part of making the Grill Mount awesome. Here he is testing Grill Mount version number 7 - the final product. The first production parts hit the beach June 21st. Pre order at www.ProStandard.com and get free shipping.

Mold your bite pads with coffee

You can custom fit your Grill Mount by heating the EVA pads in your morning coffee on the way to the beach for an early sesh. You know... If you like coffee and the beach, surf, surfing, sup kind of thing. It doesn't have to be hard guy black coffee, a chai latte or an Earl Grey tea works as well.

Rocky Point with Keoni Jones

Keoni Jones has been testing the 3D Printed protoypes for about a month now on the north shore of Oahu and is stoked. The Grill Mount hits the beach in about 2 weeks. Get ready! Here's a quick screen grab.

Keoni Watson Using the Grill Mount and a Hand Held Grip for Your GoPro

We designed the Grill Mount to fit in your mouth for a perfect relaxed fit. Sometimes it's nice to take it out and get a new angle... like this.

Keoni Watson started with the Grill Mount in his mouth and then after he dropped in, slid a couple fingers between the mount and his chin into the curved space that was created for just that purpose by designing the Grill Mount to "float" slightly in front of your chin with the your GoPro below your chin.
Super comfortable and super quick to grab when you want to change angles.

Greg The Assembly Robot for distributors and team / testers

Greg - AKA - The Assembly Robot, has been busy all week putting together the final samples of the 3D printed prototypes for all our distributors and our friends/testers in Hawaii and Bali. Keoni Watson, Keoni Jones and his brothers, Jaymo and Sean Reilly are killing it on testing.













How could you not love science. All week Greg has been fooling around with 3D Printers, lasers to cut the EVA, and all kinds of high tech stuff that makes us look really smart. Now we just have to mount the lasers on the shark in the office and it's on!
We've printed three colors now. White, Black and Red.

Keoni Jones testing.

Pro Standard Grill Mount Promo Shoot with Freesurf Magazine in Hawaii

Had such a fun time in Hawaii with Sean Reilly and Keoni Watson testing the latest generation of 3D printed Grill Mount prototypes. Thanks to Darrick and Tiger Doerner at DDSEA for the accommodations. I've just finished sorting all the shots from the #grillmount promo shoot with Freesurf Magazine. We shot mostly on the North Shore and a few other spots. We thought the weather and waves were going to be not so great but we hit a great little sun and swell window and got what we needed.

Grill Mounts... Fresh from the oven

The latest generation of Pro Standard Grill Mounts for hands free shooting with your GoPro when you surf and bodyboard, are fresh out of the oven at Camosun Applied Research and the 3D prints are perfect. So stoked. Now it's off to Hawaii tomorrow to test them one final time before we commit to cutting metal. Game on.
