We took the opportunity to try out the GoPro HERO Helmet cam that we got from PH from Action Cameras (thanks BrO!)
This helmet cam is really a cool deal: it’s easy to use, it’s light, it’s not too expensive and it has a wide angle that makes incredible images! The wide angle really makes a big difference compared to other helmet cams that you fix on your goggle strap for example, and are never really sure what you are filming.
The HERO works with a standard 2GB SD card that you insert in the device. The camera is trapped in a small box that keeps it protected from humidity, so there is no risk to damage it even if you fall in a meter of pow.
There are many ways to wear the camera but the simple headband - as pictured above - works great, at least for powder runs, you’ll probably need to tighten it hard for park shredding but I’ m positive it will go as well. All in all I think this helmet cam is a great deal for filming all your action sports adventures. Because if it works for snowboarding, it will also work for downhill bike, wakeboarding, freebording and so on.
