Yup, goproHD; nevertheless, the problem with helmet cam is the scenes
change when you turn your head, but much easier and stabler than hand-
held for chasing/filming.


Do you think gopro & chest-mount would work? I like chest-footage
better as it's somehow more immersive.

The gopro can probably me mounted most
anywhere. A favorite I've seen is on
the end of a ski pole. Not much use for
Ichin.

Never use it, so I don't know, but it should probably work if the
skier has a stable upper body; helmet cam also bounces on mogul hills.

I think gopro come with 7 or 8 mounting devices, so yes, it can be
mounted on any helmet, and almost everywhere; my classmates (most of
them are boarders) mount the camera at the end of a long pole to film
themselves snowboarding. Nevertheless, bike-mount, car-mount, and body
harness are not included, so you have to purchase them yourself. I use
the helmet strap, so it can be used by any body with a helmet, a good
way to share the filming among friends.
