Snowboarding with Video Camera?

Hi, I would like to purchase a digital video camera with some type of camera
extension to mount on the side of my snowboarding helmet. The camera would
be in my secure backpack and would have some lead running from it to my
helmet. I have seen this before on another snowboarder but have not come
across anything on the net?

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks
Gareth

Sounds like you want one of the Sony 'Walkman' series of portable VCR's
connected to some form of pencil camera (or custom built unit) and
microphone that are mounted on to a helmet.

Have a look at the Keene site and this page especially, it seems to be what
you are after

No cheap though, and the Walkman VCR will set you back some too...
