Nice :cool2: Have you got a link to that Cam. Quality is awesome, going skiing in a couple of weeks and looking to buy a good quality helmet cam.

Cheers Daz. I'm still pretty rubbish so my vids will be rubbish but there are 12 of us going this year and a few newbies so the footage will be priceless. Learning to ski/board is one of the best/funniest/most frustrating experiences ever imo.

I was always a beach holiday type of guy 'til my mate persuaded me to try it 5/6 years ago, now i wouldn't pass it up for anything. I love it :rockon:

Nice vid rob, You are a lucky boy. Keep em coming for us less lucky souls stuck in dreary old UK.

Shop around on the GoPro... I'll find the link where I got mine. Was some sports shop in Scotland... Think I paid more like £200.

 

The Countour (helmet cam) has a much better shape but when you compare videos on youtube, the GoPro is significantly better.

 

I've got a head cam, but shoots better when you hold in your hand ( less shaky! )...

 

Might also have something to do with Light, definitely found that in over-cast the video struggles on the smoothness side in action.

Aah I'm jealous! 1) You get that for 3 months. 2) You have my dream NSX!

You Sir, are a *******! I had to settle for Milton Keynes snow dome last week lol. Are you chalet hosting out there or just taking 3 months out from life?

taking 3 months out from life?

 

 

 

actually... this week is a full 5 day work week for me. with a 7 a.m. start today.. hmm.. might take a long lunch break on Wed / Thurs. :ph34r:

 

I got a digital phone that plugs into ADSL router & VPN tunnels to the phone system for the company I work for in Berkshire. I get normal UK phone rates & all my calls come up with a Maidenhead number... the phone quality sounds like I'm still in Maidenhead.

 

this plus my desktop pc is identical as if I were sitting in the office...

Technology actually working!!?? fooking unbelievable.

 

 

 

...now.... all this doesn't mean I'm actually getting any work done!!!??? need to or I'll have no job to come back to :oops:

Wife Finally came to her senses and joined me for the final 6 weeks of the season....

a distant reality from the UK... and so a bit 'off topic' but.... This place is soooooo SICK!!

 

one week left for me and it just keeps snowing and snowing. I think we got about another 18 inches last night up top.

 

Here's a pic from yesterday. think I'm going to have to move out here again next year. I can see the demise job, career, finances if I can't get off this "DRUG"

 

okay just in case anyone looks at this thread down the road and looking for a conclusion....

 

last day of the season yesterday photo. a mere 24 hours ago.
