Well here is a short video of Andrew and I from our weekend at Jekyll. Little disappointed that the camera died on Sunday so missed the bigger jumps
but hope you enjoy. and please let me know what you think. Video wise i think it is the best i have done yet. Might post another next week of some
of the odd items like Andrew falling face first in a tidal pool, or the buggy flying away when i hooked the arc to it (sat still for about 1/2 hr)
Errr...ummm.... the only problem is I have a sudden urge to grab a tooth pick and a Tecate Beer (with lime), doff a pair finely aged distressed brown
Nocana boots, and use my dog as an ottoman..... what's up with that. :puzzled:
ATB,

Thanks guys, we had a ton of fun and I think I have the most awesome sons (carter doesnt kite yet, but has decided he wants to try it). He was a
real trooper during the trip and Sunday after the battery died and wind really picked up Andrew was able to get some 5-6 ft jumps as well. I wish the
camera was working then. On a side note- we filmed almost 3 hrs of helmet cam and about 30 minutes on the tripod before camera died. I think the
tripod shots are much more enjoyable to watch. What do you guys think? Also outside of my lack of ability to go to my weak side- any tips from you
guys on the "sending" lesson?

Scott, I like seeing many angles, but I understand how easy it is to forget about the helmet cam. I usually end up with lots more footage from that
perspective than any other. Now, if I had 3-4 cameras like Todd... :dunno: It would just mean lots more editing! 3.5 hrs on a charge seems about
right. I get about 4-4.5 on a set of 'Ultimate Lithiums'(less in the cold), but unfortunately the Micro won't use re-chargeable batteries. Don't be
too jealous, cheezy, you have a fine budding photographer to take with you(who needs a tripod?), in your son, and as much as your daughter likes
riding, I can see her "Riding Like a Girl" somday!
