    Let me know how you like it. I have a few friends that use them while hydrofoiling and some of the video from that is great. I've been wanting one for a while now but funds keep preventing me from splurging.

    Funny you should put up a product review (soon anyways) of the GoPro HD, cause my last canyoneering adventure of the season was down Great White Icicle in Little Cottonwood Canyon and my friend Jeff just had his arrive the day before.

    Anywho, here is the video he edited of himself going down all the rappels.


    PS - He Loves it! He's going to take it boarding with him this year to get all his action shots. He's pretty stoked about it.

    Hydrofoiling as in Sky Ski? If so let's see those videos.

    I'm just to the point where I can land gainers on my foil but I'm a slow learner. I was looking through some of the hydrofoil forums of my friend with his cam but couldn't find a recent ones, here's a couple of the Helmet pro vids from the site:





    And finally hitting a Kicker wake:

    I bought one at the end of the summer and have used it for wakeboarding, biking, snorkeling and snowboarding. It works like a charm for all.



    I haven't mounted it on my helmet yet so when I do that it will be less bumpy (just used the headband in this one). Also this upload is not HD.

    Two wheels are better than four, keep the rubber side down.

    That thing is a sweet camera! I bought mine a few months ago and is worth it!
    I bought it first to take on The Subway Hike, mounted on my helmet. But I also mount it to the top of our truck for some trail running. I even have mounted it to the back of my longboard. I just love the superwide angle.

    Heres a few videos I have made with it.

    Windows Live Movie Maker works like a charm for these HD MP4 videos. Only available on Windows 7 though.

    Thanks Beech, just got the wife a new Puter so that should be an easy pickup to get me rolling in the near future.
