Hey Took,
Video's came out pretty good. Maybe next time the camera needs to be pointed just a little bit higher but for just guessing at it out on the trail it worked out. Now you need to let someone else wear the camera and get behind you, probably luna since he's the only guy that can keep up with you (video doesn't do justice of how fasat you guys were riding).

Nice going! The camera perspective really had me guessing what route you took. I could tell from the Shits take that the video gives little appreciation of how fast you were going. Looked like a really nice morning to ride!

Thanks much,

DM :thumbsup:

Ya Dustin when in the tunnels I guess ducking down for the branches made the camera to low , when in the open it was better . Next time I will tilt it up alittle and should be much better . It would be awesome to get another one and mount it to the seat post of Greg's bike , that way he can video the rider behind .

Tooker those videos were SICK!!!

Man showed how tight #5 is.

Also going down the shiats, jumping down the downhill after the first double on top, is so fun, just kinda scary cause you can't tell if anyone is climbing up sometimes.

I got to buy one now.

Oh yeah it was great riding with Took,BD435, & Ldood was a blast & just what I needed before my trip here. Temps were perfect.

Only issue was Ldood, busted chain :thumbsup: , nothing to see here though keep moving along :lol:

My only choice here is spin class, can't wait to get home & MTB Thurs.

I know you misdiagnosed it. That's why the nothing to see here, keep moving along comment.

I was trying to say you pack so much power you busted the chain on your SS.

That is a fun trail though, where it slipped.

I don't know about that you climbed the power lines in record time on the SS.

The camera is a Go-Pro Helmet hero , the new one that I don't think is available right now , I got it at Interbike last week . The new one is 5mp and has a 170 degree wide angle lens . the old one was 3mp and standard lens .
