I filmed 35 minutes of sky then adjusted the cam and at least caught my landings.

Dang Bullet Cam. I want a decent little video cam with a view finder for Christmas !

At least you get a feel for how the jumps are coming along. :yawn:

Looks like you had some fun. Keep the videos coming... I am working on one myself, ETA is still one week out.

I don't know if you can preview still images with the camera while you're out there. I use a little sony point and shoot, and take a photo with the camera when I've got it in place for filming, that way I can check the field of vision. I've also done that, noted where the edges of the image are, and drawn long lines in the sand so I can see whether or not i am in the field of view. You could choose landmarks as well.

vimeo was slow, couldn't see your jumps!

Unfortunately the Bullet cam can't be viewed without download. :ticking:

I missed the jumps but not completely. You catch the landings as I enter at the left.:ticking:

Vimeo seemed to run O.K. this a.m. ?

I'm working on it. I'm sure they'll get better.

bummer you can't preview out in the field... maybe figure out what the angle of view is and mark that on the cam?

vimeo is slow for me in HK. also I think my ISP is trying to throttle me becuz of too many torrents. i'll check back in 24 hrs, I've always been intrigued by the blades, i want to see those jumps...

cool, Oh you're flying now BLADE!
call this the bomber series because you're constantly droppin" in.

keep' em rollin'

Nice!

Vimeo works fine for me!!! That reminds me of my spot. crowded with Walkers and famlies on bikes. Thats why i like to go early in the AM or after 4pm :wee:

I have my eye on getting one of these. waterproof is a nice feature. usually it means you don't have to worry about sand getting in it either.

That is English Bay in behind. It's one of the spots we got banned from. We have chosen to obey the ban in summer due to crowds + light wind. In turn we say " come and get us " once the lifeguards are no longer there ( May to Sept ). It is a great spot for learning on water. Winter winds are better anyway!

Vanier gets super clean wind but is very small. Just enough to get speed, jump and then turn. I literally had a cheering crowd for a while last Sunday ! That felt a bit odd ?
