FAQs

How does the Trade-Up Program work? How do I enroll?
To participate, simply visit the Trade-Up website and follow the opt-in instructions. Participants will be asked to enter their credit card information, which will initiate a $0 authorization charge (don't worry, you won't be charged until we process your return and ship your new camera), their shipping address, details about the camera they're returning and their preferred HERO5 camera (either HERO5 Black or HERO5 Session).

Once participants have completed to opt-in process, GoPro's fulfillment center will mail a prepaid shipping label that participants can affix to a box to return their old HERO camera. Upon receiving the returned camera, we'll process the appropriate discount and ship your brand new HERO5 camera.

What kind of cameras will you take?
The Trade-Up Program will accept any previous-generation GoPro HERO camera.

Do cameras have to be in working condition?
No. Cameras can be in any condition – working or not – to be eligible for the Trade-Up Program. Cameras can be dead, missing components or even melted in a fire, and we will take them!



Is there a limit to the number of cameras I can return and discounts I can receive?
There is no limit on the number of cameras you can return for the discount. We will offer one discount per camera returned!

Why should I upgrade?
HERO5 cameras are the best we've ever made. They're waterproof without a housing, feature hands-free voice commands, extended battery life, better image stabilization, simplified controls and an overall sleeker design. And when paired with GoPro's new software, they enable the simplest, most powerful mobile storytelling solution yet. Not to mention, we've got some pretty exciting software updates planned for 2017, which can only be unlocked with a HERO5 camera.

What are you planning to do with all the returned cameras? Are you re-using them, or will they be recycled? If so, how?
Cameras will be recycled responsibly via zero landfill and recycling methods appropriate to material type. We will refurbish what we can, and sort, separate and recycle materials based on zero landfill, responsible recycling standards.

How long will the program last? And will there be another one when you release the next generation?
The Trade-Up Program will last for a limited time and determine if and how the program will live on in the future.

Check out these little silver bins posted up at a surf break near you thanks to the team at Hold On To Your Butt . They are committed to keeping cigarette butts off the beach. 🚬 butts are the number 1 source of litter on our California beaches. The team empties these bins and ships the butts to TerraCycle where they recycle the trash and eventually give it a new life. This bin was purchased by one of their volunteers, Patrick Migliazzo .

Interested in installing one at your local surf break? Contact Tiffany at tpalazzini@wlam.surfrider.org

To sum it up in 2 words: It sucks.

It really does.

First of all, this is the type of movie all the film "Critics" are required to give a negative review of. Those stuffy types are not supposed to like raunchy comedies and raunchy comedies aren't made for them anyways. They are made for the people who just want to spend 90 minutes watching something silly and laughing. Unfortunately, Baywatch straight up failed to deliver any laughs. It has a few small laughs, and that's about it. Even the eye-candy is mediocre. There's not even any memorable beauty shots in the film. No surfing scenes either, not that Hollywood ever shoots any proper surf scenes, so maybe that's for the better. The film relocated the setting to Georgia, so the scenery just sucks as well.

And if you were hoping that the R-rating means there is going to be some nude scenes, Baywatch did deliver there. They delivered an old man's penis. Not any of the Baywatch chicks most were hoping for.

Son Of The Beach did a much better job of being a raunchy Baywatch spoof.
