Yes it is HD Surf, He uses a GoPro camera, full HD and an awesome camera, I just bought one, I love my Marcum 825 but GoPro has them hands down on video quality, the downfall is you cant monitor what the camera see's in real time, so you film Blindly, until they release the wifi addition in April, Maybe Marcum should team up with goPro and make a combo HD "viewable" system !!
