Basalt — Pole Mount System

THE MOUNT THAT
DOESN'T LET GO.

A reinforced Insta360-to-ski-pole mount, built after the official one let riders down on real mountains. More material exactly where it counts — so your camera comes home with you.

Why this exists

The official mount wasn't built for impact.

Insta360 sells its own ski-pole mount. Riders report the same failure repeatedly: a hard knock, a caught edge, a fall — and the clip lets go, sometimes with the stick and camera still attached.

01 — REPORTED PATTERN

The stock mount is a single thin plastic flex-point. Riders across forums describe it separating on the first real hit, not a slow wear failure.

02 — WHAT'S AT STAKE

When it lets go, it's not just the mount — the stick and an Insta360 camera can go with it. That's a real dollar loss, on a slope you're not climbing back down to search.

03 — WHERE THIS CAME FROM

Basalt started as a fix for exactly this: more structure at the one point that was flexing, without changing how the setup mounts or feels.

Field reports paraphrased from public rider discussion — not verbatim quotes.

How it holds

Two grips. One shared idea.

A rigid shell for structure, a soft liner exactly where it touches your gear. The same principle, applied twice — once for the stick, once for the pole.

STICK SIDE

Screw-adjustable collar

Grips the Insta360 shaft directly. Ribbed for hand-tightening, sized to the stick's actual bore — 23mm across the 85/114cm sticks, 25mm on the slightly thicker 100cm.

POLE SIDE

Locking ring + shim

A rubber-lined ring clamps the pole; interchangeable shims add wall thickness to dial in friction across 14–18mm. Every order ships with the full set — no size to pick at checkout.

PACKAGING

[Placeholder] Every Basalt mount ships in environmentally-friendly packaging, chosen to keep postage impact as low as the product itself is built to last — full material details to come.

"Lost a camera to the official mount two seasons ago. This one hasn't budged once, even after a proper fall on ice."

Support

Fitting, warranty, questions.

Which Insta360 stick does this fit?

The 85cm and 114cm Selfie Stick (23mm shaft) and the 100cm Selfie Stick (25mm shaft). Pick your stick model at checkout — we map it to the correct bore automatically.

Do I need to know my ski pole's diameter?

No. Every order includes the full 14mm/16mm/18mm ring and shim kit, so nothing to select at checkout. We do recommend measuring your pole (diameter, or circumference ÷ π) just to confirm it's within range before you order.

How do I know which ring to use?

Full step-by-step guide with photos, including how to seat a shim for a snug fit. Same content whether you're deciding before you buy or fitting it on the mountain.

What if a part breaks or goes missing?

Replacement rings and shims are sold separately — sold individually, not bundled into a checkout add-on. See spare parts →
