So I need to figure out a way to mount a gopro to a ski. I tried the flat sticky mount and I slapped my ski on the ground and it popped off. What do pros use? Epoxy? I need help asap. Thanks guys

yeah id say some hardcore epoxy but drilling it in a tiny bit would really be ideal, think about how much energy goes through your skis while your riding

sand down your top sheet a bit and then use epoxy.

There's special ones formulated for gluing plastic. Just go to the store and ask.

The suction cup is strong but it states right on the website not to use it for impact sports like skiing and snowboarding.
