That looks crazy, Spaz
Huge improvement on yesterday.


Loved when the skier was close behind you, looked awesome..........you should get some kind of deal for this.......hire them out to the "grab for cash" and "shred for breaders"

Well done!!!

Looks great and it looks like a snow boarding video game.

Awesome - i like Polecam waaayyy more than bootcam

Am I missing something? How the hell do you manage to board like that holding the pole and maintaining the correct camera angle? I'd be doing some nasty ar5e things with that pole if it were I trying to balance it and slide at the same time :eek: Could be a little more serious than a twisted ankle!

that is very very clever spaz! it looks like you're holding onto the edge of my screen!

AND, I think I saw a skier willingly following your tracks (track)...and they said it couldn't be done!

Holding the pole helps maintain the correct boarding posture. Any movement naturally keeps me in shot and the less I think about the camera the better the footage is. It is very light and on a stock that's bent a bit, the stock handle keeps it in one position in my hand. I just set the camera before a run, either pointing at my belly-for me taking up the shot or at my head-to shoot others behind or in front of me.
