I borrowed a go-pro for the last week to play with. I'll post some video soon, but what I've found is that a 5 foot collapsible hiking pole not only make the the normal pole video better but allows the camera to get much closer to the action when videoing others.

Great video.

Yes, a lot of people I know do because you can jump right back into skiing with better balance and strong ski specific muscles. The Canadian CSIA actually have a course for ski instructors to teach "skate to ski" courses for that reason.
