First Ride - Video

[Spyderman]

As promised here is some video footage of our first weekend, nothing fancy but it was a good time. I'm still new to this video editing stuff so I couldn't figure out how to lower the quality and make a smaller file (Thats the project for tonight)

File size is 18MB.

Very cool. I like when you jumped that hill at the 1.17 mark of the video.

 

[leaddog]

WOW

 

[Starry Knight]

Great video!

How did you do that? It looks like a cam attached to your helmet?

 

[Pitt4212]

yeah what kind of camera? where did you get it? and how much did it cost you if you don't mind telling.

My wife snuck up on me and surprised me while I was watching the clip... with all my heavy breathing at the computer she thought I watching porn. "No. It's just a guy riding my other dream" I replied. She didn't know if she should be happy or mad. Either way, thanks for the taste.

The helmet camera is the helmetcamera.com 480 extreme package. We use a Sony HC32 camcorder with a "LANC" controller to stop and start video. Everything fits in one of those small camelback backpacks, and we have one cord which splits 2 DC plugs in the bag. NO BATTERIES! You can see pictures of the setup here:

Yammilingus: Great response, glad you liked it!

Looks like I'm heading back up the weekend of the 17th!

Spydy what did you get about 5 inches off the ground on that jump! nic air. it shure didnt seem like there was 5ft of snow on the ground either

 

[showtz]

sheddattack - the small jump about 3/4 through the video shows spyderman in front and me on the REV with helmet cam on. The snow conditions overall were great! The LES was really heavy in some parts. Twin Lakes got hit the hardest and Houton had very little snow until Monday. I'll talk to ya soon. Can't wait for the next trip!
