I know you don't look cool but then i don't use my all day every day and when i do its worth it.
And you don't have to put it on your head Ian.

You're anti gopro because they make someone else look a plonker?

Looking like a plonker is a small price to pay for getting some decent hands free holiday video footage.

It does look a bit odd to have a camera sat on top of your bonce....but what the hey..

Whilst in Val d'Isere I was highly amused to receive a subtle "gopro nod" from a skier who passed by me whilst I was having a breather. I returned the nod. Bit like two VW camper vans meeting up in Cornwall! :thumbup:
slippy slidey snow......me likey!

I also saw one plonker with one straped to his chest ... you can imagine the shots he would have got .... just imagine trying to get to your wallet 8)

Before i left for Flaine i stuck two go pro mounts to my skis for different vantage points.
Both were rock solid....both have vanished.
I guess the extreme cold has affected the glue and let them go free.
Shame that as i was looking forward to trying them out.
