With all the GoPro wide videos, I thought I'd post this quick video of me at uppers last October to illustrate the view from the back of the boom at 170 degrees. I had the cam angled downward to give more rider perspective, and you'll note that after the gybe, I reach back and angle the cam more upright. If you've got one of these, make sure you use a philips head driver to tighten the adjustments to keep it from "slouching" in chop and after jumps.
Sooner or later, you will have to put a disclaimer in here stating that you don't own the GP company, and you don't own company stock....at least not yet!
ReplyDeleteyea, that is a great angle! Also, a nice one is to point the view back though the sail at the rider. I experimented with that view with the non-wide angle GP and it captured awesome perspectives of looping!
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to getting some aerial looping shots with the new wide angle mounted both at the boom as well as at the mast tip. Should provide for a cool perspective while spinning in the air, especially with the new wide angle!
