my friend bought a a stabilizer for his Go Pro
you need to use the Go Pro without the cover. so its important to use a lens cover for the Go Pro
we made a short video without the stabilizer and with the stabilizer.
and wow. I'm amazed. I really didn't think it will improve the video so much.

I hope its OK to share with you the link to my (new) web site...
you can use the translate to read it in English :)
if its not OK please delete this thread

and we will test it also on the helmet and on the bar.

I was very skeptic about it when we first try it :)

In hell. Welcome!
Do you have a pic of that thing mounted on you/your friend? I would not want to crash and have sharp pieces of metal between hard rocks and my supple body.

those really do improve the footage, but they generally cost more than the camera, and that looks pretty obtrusive on the wearer. Besides, there are precisely zero people other than myself and whoever's ass is in front of me that want to see my footage.

Sandwich, I think we will use it also for just taking videos from the side of the trail.
you can add parts to it to hold it by hand and more

i'm at work so I didn't see your footage, but most of it looks absolutely incredible...it's just a big device to wear on your chest.

Yeah, i don't think this is the type of thing you use every time you use a gopro though. At least I wouldn't want to use it every time. If I made actual riding edit's though, this thing would be awesome to get a couple shots with. I definitely wouldn't want to be fiddling with this on an all day shuttling trip or trail ride though. Number one it's big and unwieldy and number 2 it's fragile
