Cannon HS10 swivel mount - breakage (topic again)

[Netbender]

All, I have two Cannon HS10's that are 13-14 years old. They are mounted on swivel mounts. A friend of mine just lost his, only 4 years old, broke under trolling and lost it all. I have the same set up and would like to prevent, fix and upgrade my pair. I have searched and came up with the SS mounts from cannon but these are a bit pricey I think. My question is, has Cannon addressed this with their new composit swivel mounts? Are they any improvement? Just get the SS version? Is there a second manufacturer? What works?

 

Thanks for your response,

just go with SS and be sure it's safe.

This has me thinking, I think for now I'll rig up some kind of safety lines to my riggers.
