Not so long ago, anyone participating in sporting events would never get to watch themselves.
Then, someone got the bright idea to videotape the events so they could be saved and rewatched.
Here’s what the typical scenario used to be: Some nice friend would show up with one of those gigantic camcorders, one of the ones you need two hands to hold, and attempt to catch your mountain biking exploits on tape? The video was usually very jumpy, you weren’t always in the line of sight, and the sound would be muffled.
I suppose that’s better than nothing, but there are a lot of flaws to this method of recording your sporting events.
Fortunately, camcorder technology has come a long way in the last few years. Cameras and recorders are smaller, have better resolution, and have better sound than ever before.
The newest helmet cams and bullet cams (or lipstick cams), with small personal digital video recorders are the perfect solution for recording your sporting events. The tiny camera attaches securely to your helmet and the small, lightweight personal digital video recorder tucks away safely into your pocket.
With a solid-state design and no moving parts, these devices are very durable and can really take the abuse of extreme sports. You can’t hold onto one of those old camcorders and record what you see! (Well, let’s just say that’s been proven to be a really bad idea and you really shouldn’t…..)
The Perfect Way to Record Trail Riding and Stunts
The new helmet cams, bullet cams and personal digital recorders are the perfect way to record extreme sports. The helmet cam stays focused on exactly what you see while you are doing any stunts or tricks. Be the first on your block to make skateboarding videos. Be that guy that really tries everything, and makes skydiving videos, too! There are no limits to how the helmet cam can be used to record your sporting achievements.
Easy to Use
Helmet cams with personal digital video recorders are easy to use. Get the equipment set up, and just hit start before you begin. Let the camera roll for the entire event, capturing every highlight, every move, and, every wipeout, too!!
Having the helmet cam attached to your helmet with the recorder in your pocket means no distractions while you are filming your extreme sports video. This means you are safer, your hands are free, and you are better able to concentrate on what you’re doing.
Share the Excitement
With the new helmet cam and personal digital video recorder equipment, it’s really easy to transfer the video footage to your PC and watch it over and over again. It’s simple to make DVDs, or email the videos to your friends and family to show off your tricks. Post your mountain biking footage on video websites like revver.com opr youtube.com and amaze the world.
Be careful about sending it to your mother without proper warning, though. She may not want to know…..
