I surf with mine all the time. Are you using the mount that came with the camera, or the actual surf mount that they sell?
The actual surf mount comes with a leash that you can tie to the camera. You can also attach one of those orange floaty blocks to your camera to make it easier to find.
Using GoPro-branded surf camera mount, tether, and float. One time the tether broke, the other time the tether pulled the plastic bit off the board.
Neither time did the float help me. Both times were in pretty heavy 2’ overhead surf and my body made contact with the cam while trying to pigdog through a pinching barrel but not making it.
