First GoPro helmet mount try
Hey all, this was my first try at helmet mounting a GoPro camera. It taught me not to be the lead quad of the group, video on a brighter day, and not to look around so much. It's rough and jumpy bought thought some of you might be interested in seeing it. This was Cat Hole Road in Claremont, NH. Some of the rocks were about a 3-4 almost vertical climb and some of the waterholes were almost headlight deep. YouTube - Cathole Road

I tried mounting it to the rack extender on my front rack/box. It picked up a good bit of vibration from the engine and electrical interference from the engine. I tried handlebar mounting my Canon S3IS and while it took great video, I quickly needed an airsick bag. If you think the helmet was jerky, you should have seen the handlebar mount. I'm probably going to learn how to do the helmet mount better by staying in the rear and moving eyes more than head. I may also put the GoPro on a rear rack I bought for the X2 that provides rack space even when I have a passenger. I just have to check to see if the camera will be able to see around me when I'm sitting in the seat. (Yes, it could be a real issue.)
