    There is a thread on here somewhere with a bunch of vid uploaded.
    I have one and love it.
    Use it skiing, motorcycling, snowmobiling & mountain biking.
    They sell a kit with a bunch of different mounts which gave some me other options for camera placement.
    It was the coolest gift I ever got. :)
