Hola! I don't have much experience with the Gopro, but I can say the 960 Gopro model rocks! I think Santa only paid around $170... I use the 16GB card. Very happy with the camera...

I hope it works for you.

There are 3 different types of GoPro's: SD Hero, HD Hero 960 and the HD Hero 1080(Naked on the website). I wouldn't buy the SD as it is already outdated. Personally I would buy the HD 1080 because that resolution should last for a while in the ever expanding universe of HD video. This is the camera that comes standard with the Surf, Helmet and Motorsports packages. The only difference being the mounts for the camera. Which you can also buy separately. I think I am going to buy the Helmet Hero with an extra surf mount. Hope this helps.
