So GoPro took a good thing and made it better. We were already all boners about last year's little Hero Cam, but this year the good folks at Go Pro stepped up and made them HD. Now, with the option of filming in 16:9 ratio, with improved color balance and frame-rate options, these little cams are no longer just for fooling around on the hill with the homies. This self-cam footy is good to go for legit shred porn.
But the fun doesn't end there, oh no, my friend. Strap these little trout-eyed cameras to your head and film your own run with the headstrap kit. Also, with the special adhesive pads included with the camera, you can stick a mount to your nose or your tail and film or shoot progressive photos every 2 to 5 seconds from your run. Shit, you can stick these adhesive pads and film from all types of things: your surfboard, your boat, your car, kayak, jet plane, your girlfriend's left butt cheek...oops, did I say that out loud? Anyway, you're picking up what I'm putting down here, just stick it wherever you please and roll. How is the camera gonna survive all this, you ask? Easy, in its shockproof/waterproof quick-release housing!
Instead of me continuing to ramble incoherently, I'll just let the images do the talking by showing you a few quick stunts while running through the Vans Penken Park in Mayrhofen along with some powder!
More HD Hero Camera action coming up this week with Yale Cousino, who just won the Burn River Jump last week in Livigno. Look out for here on Methodmag.com
