Here is a low quality version of some footage I spliced together from Windrock the other day. The fork angle is pretty cool. However, the body shot makes me look like I am wearing lady's shoulder pads from the eighties.

Sweet hipper transfer at the 2:20 mark.

I'd say the skyward fork mount shot is the most unique, but I wouldn't make an entire vid that way. I think this angle would make for an interesting training tool in a "How-To" vid on riding technique. The POV this angle offers allows the viewer to really see when braking is being applied (while leaning in a turn for example) and how frequently. (watch for finger movement in the upper left of the screen). If you did a synchronized split screen with a traditional head-cam shot looking down-range on the trail that would be pretty cool to see over what kind of terrain the braking was being done.

Cool vid ProFro!

Sexy legs for sure.

Do you work out?

 

[Karve]

Cool vids - what mounts did you use to get those great shots. Have a vholdr myself so would be very interested.

That was pretty great quality. Those trails look like fun, from what I could see at least.

That is the stock goggle mount held to the frame with a velcro strap?

I do not work out. I ride bikes and build trails. Why do you ask?

 

[kidwoo]

Whoa.

I watched the first 10 seconds but had to stop because it felt like you were having sex with me.


WAAAYYY too many memories of heavy panting dudes in full faces from my childhood .........if you know what I'm sayin.

I think he was going along with your joke about the over-exaggerated "shoulder pad" look.

Hey Doug, is this the 1080p HD or the regular 720p HD?

I'm contemplating buying either this camera or the new Go Pro HD. They both are similar in price and features. Anybody got recommendations?

 

[ROTFLMAO]

I have the GoPro Wide and now the Contour 1080. I've seen tons of vids from both the GoPro HD and the Contour 1080 HD and the quality is pretty damn close. I loved the chest mount on the GoPro but prefer the ease of use, adjust ability and low side profile of the Contour (for frame and helmet mounting).

It's a toss up really, they're both great.

If anyone is interested the ContourHD is on sale at Amazon for 179
