funny.....early in the video, I was wondering when/if an "end of camera fun" event was going to happen. Glad it was only temporary.

Love the video. What does your rig look like for those "camera on a stick" shots? (around, over, and below the boat)? Seams very steady and well aimed.

Tiger - I had no choice but to get the mask on and retrieve. I was getting some serious grief about having lost the camera with all of the boys tubing footage on it! LOL!

rpengr - I am using a simple 'GoPro/Contour' accessory telescopic camera post. Nothing fancy. The wide camera lens angle on all of the helmet cams is very forgiving when trying to point in the right direction. The steadiness I can't comment on - I don't know is that is technology in the cameras or just a fluke. I use it for DH MTB racing primarily and it is amazing how steady the footage is considering it's just stuck to the side of my noggin...

Are those tower speakers the 10 inch Wetsounds?

240 Joe - I believe we have these installed.

They were part of our tower installation and I had them wired to a Jensen power amp with an isolation switch to shut them off when no one is behind the boat.

According to the kids - they can hear their tunes while tubing and wake boarding but it took some system tuning to get it right.
