Awesome video!
That’s totally doable, but not sure how long my camera will last unless the goalies don’t mind a big ass tupperware container stuck to their head. It’ll depend who’s reffing at the time too as some of them may not approve of it (dangerous equipment and all that).
If anyone has a really small camera they don’t mind donating for the cause I’d love to try it. In the mean time I’m going to work on uber protecting the existing camera.
Does anyone have a spare sheet of polycarbonate plastic lying around? The acrylic cover we’re using at the moment really isn’t up to scratch and isn’t going to take more than a single shot to destruct it. A sheet of +3mm thick polycarb oughta do it I think. I’ve got some polystyrene to pack around the camera itself now too which should help somewhat.

But what if you got a dangler, you know the big bit of plastic to protect the throat
and attached you camera to the reverse side of that???ie the part closet to the body???

Yep, that would be doable, not sure how good the view would be, but no harm in trying. Should be pretty well protected behind your ‘dangler’. Come see me after intermediate practice tonight and we can give it a test run – will need to sort some way of getting it to sit in position though … string around your neck?

[/quote:3ad0ngj0]yes, that is true …
… well … no goalie cam tonight then. I’m a little confused about how I missed that bit, must be suffering brain fry, I spent this afternoon reading a bunch of papers on pyrazine bridged trinuclear zinc(II) compounds
I think Jaimee has one of those, if so I’ll see if she minds me sticking it in there.

September 13, 2007 at 6:01 am #6743Azzy77ModeratorYeah unfortunately I don’t own one….
I don’t if Sk8 have any in stock at the moment….
I am not likely to purchase one for goalie cam either…
But if the club or Ryan was interested in getting one that permanently had the camera attached to it, then you can easily tie it on to any goalie helmet, making it more versatile then attaching it to a helmet. Cos no one not even goalies like sharing helmets.See photo if you are not sure what I am talking about
Or using Jaimees
September 13, 2007 at 7:03 am #6744imported_RyanMemberThose dangler thingies are a bit too expensive to have just for a camera unfortunately.

Good god Ryan, you need to get out more. Someone take this man to the pub.
