Downloading right now....Helment cams are always cool

[subdude]

man,I love helmet cams!I can't believe how big riding still is in other places.It's all but extinct here-not sure if it's the lack of waves......or warm weather......or sunshine.....or all the unemployment.....or the young getting old way too fast.....you guys have it made-I'm so jealous!

[MADMAT]

Wow man that actually makes me want to race!!! That is the best race vid I have ever seen.

[Moondance]

Were we supposed to be watching the racing or #1 Fan "gracefully" checking for hidden objects in the water:wink:

Great stuff on the helmet cam....

[Aka Kane]

Could not tell what the guy was doing at the end looks like he about hit you?

I like that Rob sounded genuinely concerned that the woman fell while trying to help.

Nice.:cheer:

why does every person ever to use a helmet cam not set it up high enough......... i like the vid dont get me wrong........ but i spent the enitre time straining my neck tryin to look up more cuz the camera was faced down to much

[D Slicker]

Maybe it's this: I used to tilt my head down to keep some spray/sun out of my eyes while racing, but if you're setting the camera up on shore, you're not doing that so it ends up pointing downward some? Just a guess.

thats exactly what it is........ same thing happens on street bike clips if u watch the helmet cam footage...... it usually tens to be adjusted when standing up and looking forward but then people get on the bike and are leaned over more and it affects the cam setting........ we found that mounting the camera at eye level on the side of the helmet was best to avoid this (but u had to keep your shield down to do so)......... but in reality the only way to truely solve the issue is to test run alot...... and adjust the camera according to what it looks like on the video ..... u also have to have a very video conscious filmer...... u could tell in alot of footage we had gotten in the past exactly the moment in the footage when the filmer stopped thinking about filming and thought about riding.......

Looks like a twisted ankle....are you OK?

[LisaLisa]

Nah - Neddy's tough as nails....she was just doing a reversed sub, right Nedra? ;)

[SJBrit]

That was great, although I do feel a little queezy after leaning into all the turns...! Nearly fell off my chair a couple of times....

[CJoz]

Outdoor Channel was using one alot. But I am sure we wont see that footage until the show airs. I kinda regret turning down the oppertunity to wear it. :( However, atlest the guy that lined up next to me in the main had it on.

[CJoz]

well I hope some1 posts it

[yamaslut]

nice..

[ceebee187]

That track layout was what Kevin from Tiznow has been telling me about. He's right, that looks like a lot of fun. The ramp is killer! Can anyone tell me how to build one? Where was that race run?

[ceebee187]

ahh.. Pahrump, Nv. That vid is awesome! That race will be on my list next year

[madoyster]

Nice finish

[Legdrag's]

Cool, I feel that I my helmet visor was slipping down. Just think of the IMAX version.

CAKE was a good choice in music.

Nice.:cheer:

That woman who fell at the end was little ol' me Personal Watercraft Racing's #1 fan AKA "The Cowbell Lady Of Havasu" That is the way Rob is. At least with me. He is a good heart. Either that or he feels sorry for old ladies. LOL

hope we get to use the helmet cam for the finals.
