What Should I Buy First?

FAQ

Do I need an action camera?

No. Start with your phone. Add an action camera only if you need POV footage, better mounting, or more rugged capture.

Do I need a microphone?

Only if you talk in your clips. If the video is just skating, battery and stability matter first.
