Surfing. Travel. Photography.
Here’s a few shots from my first run today at Mammoth. I’m using the new HD Go Pro helmet cam (set to shoot an image every two seconds). I also shot some video which I will edit and post later. The conditions were good, but it will be even better as snow storms are predicted this entire week!
You can see it was snowing and some of it was sticking to the lens cover on the housing. Overall, I’m impressed with these little cameras. The quality is great for the size and their lightweight enough that I didn’t even notice it was on my head after I got going (even though I looked like a tool). Pretty cool. Can’t wait to try these on some surf trips I have scheduled this spring!
I’m up here for a TV commercial, but the weather is so bad we may have to cancel. Either way, I hope to get some more sessions in and share the footage when I get it.
