Russian Heliboard video

If you're not sick of it all now, I've uploaded a short "trailer" of the
video I'm making of my Russian heliboarding trip. Seems to have been
fairly popular too.

Use the link below for my website, click on Snowboarding, then the
Heliboarding - Russia link. The video link is at the bottom of the page.

nice! Well planned.. did you shoot it or multiple camera
ops?

I'm working on some video I took on my trip - nothing as impressive
as a) no heli and b) no untracked deep powder! I used a helmet
cam by Hoyt Tech with my little JVC miniDV. I'll make some comments
about the good/bad of it all and how it might be (better)used.

Cheers

Nearly all of it was shot by me. The stuff of me obviously wasn't, but
as you don't know which rider is me, that'd be difficult to tell
Those shots were done by Iain D from around these parts.

The "dream" part was an idea I had whilst on the flight home. Then it's
a case of hacking it together.

Obviously those things contribute to the source material, but you can
get great stuff inbounds. I've made good videos from pure inbounds
footage.

I've been thinking at a helmet cam, but there are lots to choose from,
and it's ascertaining the good from the bad. Plus when riding, I'm not
always looking at what I want to film. I think they work best when you
are just filming what you are riding, or you have someone in front that
you can follow easily at the same speed... although I'm guessing,
because I don't have one to try yet.

I can't find anything about this helmet cam - what is it and where can
I find more info? (or on helmet cameras in general I suppose!)

Cheers!

Andy,

Here are the links I used. I went with the hoyt primarily based
on a) cost and b) the adventurecam was out of stock. It seemed to
me that the hoyt and jones were essentially the same cam. The one
by extremerecall seemed a bit pricy for my needs.
