I've mounted my GoPro Hero to the 661 Evo helmet using curved base. I also used layer or two of thick aluminum sticking tape and rubber thingy to reduce rattling to zero

I made my own chest mount using piece of GoPro's box and pieces of Headlamp-Style Head Strap and piece of dense foam. I don't have buckles on it, so wearing it is a bit tricky I use Vertical Surface J-Hook Buckle to mount camera upside down and flip the image in VLC for watching.

I've bought HR (German company) suction cup mount for GPS and combined it with GoPro mounts. Used it in the car on on motorcycle, so far with success Cost about 10$

I plan to make pole mounting device. I think it will need some counter-weight.

PS1. there is one problem I have to solve. GoPro's tightening bolt hits leatt brace, constantly. It's pretty annoying. I have to replace it with bear bolt, I guess.

PS2. My buddy mounts my GoPro on his D2 helmet just under the visor. It give nice, centered perspective, w/o any part of the helmet in the camera's view.

Pictures of both helmets? your 661 and D2 udner visor? im curious.

I can only post a pic of 661 Evo with the mount.
The visor is attached with self adhesive velcros, so I can move it quite far up. This is the only way to fit the camera. Of course, I use power tape, to hold it, not scotch office tape

Aston Hill Black run...

Ahh, thx for the memories! I used to love that track.

Damn the flint was sharp if you fell off though.... I've still got a scar on my knee where I sliced it wide open. No wonder cave-men us used it for tools!

Haha, yea the flint is still there and it's a bitch to deal with when you're digging!

Slightly off topic, but look-see the new track we dug, in place of DH4

Wow - great footage/edit, and amazing track.

Out of interest, do you know the size of the video file as uploaded to PB?
