I am too lazy to edit and upload GoPro video clips but I can’t say enough how much of a fan we all became after using GoPro this season- So how we got our hands on it goes like this- Nathan, his cousin and Alex went to the SIA show CO in Jan or Feb- Nathan and cousin was there with him too, and he entered a raffle to win a GoPro and won! He gave the prize to Nathan for use for their work and so the experiment started.
The biggest advantage about this little device is that it’s very small and light, and has built-in fisheye view for video/pictures, all the while recording crisp HD pictures and video clips. For active sports lovers it’s such a treat to be able to film yourself or your friends in action without lugging around a big and expensive video camera. The battery lasts a pretty long time and even with the highest resolution setting, a 32 GB memory stick is more than enough for a couple of days of shooting. Operation is simple and straightforward.
There is no LCD so you can’t play what you recorded or see how your shoots went, but it also means that there is no LCD to break should you hit the camera against something, which happens way too often in our world.
It also comes with a waterproof camera case so you can take it swimming, surfing, or wake boarding.
What I did in the pictures is this- I set the camera on continuous picture mode (takes one picture every second) and climbed on the rail – Attached to a ski pole, this little gizmo makes everyone happy.
Nathan filmed me a lot at Mammoth and he’s truly amazing at shooting snowboarders. I tried to copy him by volunteering to film Nathan and he scoffed at what I did end up filming :< That boy has talent. Maybe instead of hitting all the jumps and things he should go into snow-filming!

Just had to say how much of a fan we all became.
I had a good experience with their warranty department too- The unit Nathan received was defective and within a week they sent a new device over and it’s been working well since that- kudos.
