While you cannot upload your own rides directly, we are more than happy to do this for you. Each ride video you see on FulGaz has undergone many hours of post-processing and behind-the-scenes testing to ensure it is of the highest ride quality and suitable for FulGaz.

We have very high standards, but with a little help, it’s easy to get your own footage to the standard we require for inclusion. Please download the guide below and read through it carefully. We are here to help and answer any questions you may have.

Before filming your entire ride - send us a test!

Before you film your epic ride to send it to FulGaz, please perform a quick "test ride" of around five minutes of footage so we can dial in your setup. Send it to us to review and provide feedback on, then we can make sure it's all perfect before you set off on your filming adventure.

When submitting your footage to FulGaz, please also outline the exact settings used on the GoPro (eg: Wide, 4K, 60fps, etc).

• Send the test video and ride data FIT file to: aidan@fulgaz.com
  

Camera Hardware

GoPro camera quality progresses very rapidly, and in order to keep up we do require all of our rides to be filmed using newer equipment. We will only accept rides that are filmed using the following models:

• Any GoPro 10
• Any GoPro 11
• Pro tip: Invest in at least a 128GB memory card!

We no longer accept ride videos from GoPro Hero 9 cameras and below, sorry.

Camera Settings

• Camera Mode: Video
• Resolution: 4K
• FPS: 60
• Hypersmooth: ON
• Audio type: Auto
• Protune: ON (do not adjust - there should be an option to turn it on or off)
• GPS: ON

GPS / Bike Computer

• We require data from either a Garmin, Wahoo, or newer Hammerhead bike computer
• Data from sports watches such as Apple or Garmin watches will not be accepted
• Turn off Auto Pause (Garmin and Wahoo computers)
• Turn off Smart Recording (Garmin only)
• Send us the original data file - not an export from Strava or Garmin Connect

The only changes to this video are:

• We no longer accept GoPro 7-9 footage. Only footage from GoPro 10 and 11 cameras can now be submitted, and the video needs to be recorded using 60FPS, not 30FPS.
• You may need to take the door off the GoPro if you are using an additional battery. Battery doors with a "pass-through" for the USB cable can be purchased online.
• Turn ON GoPro GPS! While we don’t use the GoPro’s GPS data, it does capture other data that can enhance video stability. We can use this to further refine the accuracy.
   

Framing

One of the most common issues we see from video contributors is poor framing. This may include wheels or handlebars creeping into the shot. Below are some great examples of how to frame your shot for the best possible view when uploaded to FulGaz. 

Getting your video content to us:

1. Electronically

Pop the raw file straight from the GoPro into your Google Drive or Dropbox account and send us the link in an email, include your ride's FIT file. Please email to: aidan@fulgaz.com

Include a short description of your ride. Outlining climbs and max gradients is a good idea. If possible please let us know if the ride contains any edits or stops whilst filming and the time points of these.

We do not require the .LRV or .THM files. Contributors only need to submit the .MP4 files produced by the GoPro, and the .FIT file produced by the cycling computer.

2. Physically

Take the memory card out, check the files are good, copy the FIT file from your bike computer onto the card (in the root folder), sticky tape the memory card to a piece of paper and mail it to us! For a postal address and further details, please email aidan@fulgaz.com first.

If including more than one ride, let us know what’s what via a notepad file.

Include a short description of your ride. Outlining climbs and max gradients is a good idea. If possible please let us know if the ride contains any edits or stops whilst filming and the time points of these.

Thanks!
