Price: $19.99

 Purchase Here

I purchased the Slime Green GoKnuckles. They also come in Blue, Orange, and Black. They are made by a newer company called GoWorx. Currently they have only two products; the GoKnuckles and the Original Handle. Check them out here.



The GoWorx GoKnuckles are one of the most useful and unique handgrips for your GoPro camera. I purchased the Lime Green GoKnuckles about a month ago for the sole purpose of replacing my chubby GoPole Bobber. I was pleasantly surprised upon receiving it as it has a matte, grippy, rubber finish. This definitely helps make sure it doesn't slip from your hands in water. It also has just enough flex to feel comfortable holding it for long periods of time. The finger holes are comfortable and allow you to hold other objects in the same hand. This one of the best features of this product. The grip is also very small and lightweight and can be easily thrown into a pocket with the GoPro camera attached. I think the product is priced well for what it is, but unfortunately if you order though goworx.com, shipping adds another $5 to the overall price. This could be an issue for some people, because shipping goes up if you are overseas.



It comes in a plastic bag with the grip, a nut, and an aluminum thumbscrew. The aluminum thumbscrew is sturdy and has a gloss black finish. I always use the GoPro "Tool" to tighten and loosen my thumbscrews and unfortunately after only having it a few weeks I already have some of the finish coming off around the edges. The nut is high quality but due to the rubber design it is possible to pop the nut out of the socket. This shouldn't normally be a problem to most
people, and it has only popped out once unintentionally.

Even though I there are a few minor issues with this product I would most definitely recommend this to a friend. It is one of the most practical hand grips for the GoPro. I also have owned other hand grips such as the GoPole Grenade Grip, GoPole Bobber, SandMarc Carbon Fiber Bobber, and the UK Pro 8". This is now the main grip I use due to its form factor, size, and ability to multitask with it. I will most definitely be purchasing more colors of this wonderful product! Good job GoWorx!

I would highly recommend them for just about anything! Go check them out!
