It works perfectly. Depending on the box being used it might be of center. My box is very slightly of center when mounted. I mount the entire setup before the first game to get things alighned then remove the box and the camera mount from the dual ball swivel. The dual ball swivel and super clamp stays in the net all day and after warmups I just skate out and mount the box and a couple test shots so I hear the shutter then back to the bench, about 20 seconds, after the game go out remove the box and change cards to get to the viewing stations. repeat for 10 games. I almost bought the box in the video Thomas referenced but I don't see how this protects a camera at all. Jim  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
