Oh man, did you lose your GoPro or did it break?

That’s sucks.

For me, GoPro can’t really be beaten for ease, price and the ability to rig it anywhere but I understand that you might want something different.

I’m not that familiar with those two camera models you speak of, but for me there are a couple of key features I’d look for in a camera.

Considering your skate filming, I’d be tempted to say that a really important element would be rigging.
Having a ‘top’ handle to get low angles would be a real benefit. I’d choose a camera with a hotshoe one the top to mount accessories for if you ever need them.

Battery life and cost of the batteries is also a consideration.

Also last is ND filter. If one has inbuilt NDs and the other doesn’t then I’d choose the one that has ND’s.

Everything else like HD/frame rate/codec is by the by for me. They’ll all be the same kind of quality.

As long as you can run it all day and hold it the way you want then I’m sure the internal workings will do what you want.
