Explor'Addiction lends a GoPro camera or an on-board camera at the participant's request. This request must be made when booking by SMS. However, the loan of the camera is not a contractual commitment and depends on available stocks. The participant provides his own mini-SD card. Explor'Addiction cannot be held responsible if the card is not compatible with our cameras. We advise to come with a blank mini SD card, as some cameras must format the card to be able to read it. We ask that you follow the instructions regarding the use of these devices in the specific environment of canyons and caves (do not open the camera case before, during and after the activity. Only the instructor can introduce your SD card in the device), so as not to lose or damage them. If non-compliance with the instructions results in the loss or damage to a device, you would be liable for the sum corresponding to the new value of the device. In addition, removing the helmet to film with the GoPro is strictly prohibited. If an accident occurs (rock fall, fall from height) when the participant has removed his helmet to film, only the said participant would then be held responsible. 

The equipment provided is indicated on the site in the "FAQ" section.
