[locofortin]

[ls033189]

I hope you don't suffer a frontal impact in the chin bar area.

[AnybodyKillMe]

You would get a mouth full of camera if you were to go down off while recording

[TaoriUTS]

[CR125MANIAC]

[TaoriUTS]

@CR125MANIAC your definition of racism is quite rediculous :(

[CR125MANIAC]

@TaoriUTS oh and learn to spell ridiculous

[CR125MANIAC]

@CR125MANIAC I dont give two fucks what you think im white and i dont discriminate against other races

[surfslo]

@MAK3BALIEV3 Hahaha.. I do hope you're joking..

[wowerman]

how resistant countourHD is on high speed like 150mph?does it have internnal memory?battery life?

[aric126]

not even done watching the vid but dont you think that cutting a chunk out of the chin bar will heavily compromise the structural integrity of the helmet.... and i crashed about 2 months ago, the part you cut out took all the impact for the helmet, so id never do that because id be afraid of the chinbar just breaking on impact

[dahveed284]

I like how the kodak camera is mounted on your chin. I don't care too much for cutting large holes in the helmet, but a chin mount I think gives a good perspective in the video. Not too high or too low. Just right.

I use the GoPro. On my dirt helmet, its mounted on the right side. For my street helmet, I'd like to mount it on the chin so I can see it and gauge if it aimed right.

The lasers on the contour are a great idea. I picked the GoPro cause it came with a waterproof housing.

[codebowl]

yea let's start cutting into your helmet, it's structure and protective ability is not hindered at all... You better hope you don't crash with that helmet on. I know I know you won't isn't that why they are called accidents... I like the side mount camera though.

[ArGyProductions]

I love your videos man!

[mexchiper]

how u made that hole in the helmet thats really good

[bobscanfly]

so when you crash your camera will protect your teeth!!!

[IamSimplyPhil]

nice setup, I'm thinking about picking up the contour HD. But I like your internal cam setup, innovative- howd u get that thing in the chinbar?

@IamSimplyPhil

WilsonRyder69 has a video series, which provides step-by-step instructions as to how to create a helmet cam with the kodak v570.

[IamSimplyPhil]

@mevd thanks for the reply- I picked up the ContourHD 720p yesterday for $175. Howd you wire the external mic?

[mevd]

@IamSimplyPhil

Check out Mountainash's channel. which provides step-by-step instructions on how to install the external mix with the ContourHD.

[narnasqueneth]

god help you if you happen to faceplant something with that camera right infront of your chin... night as well say goodbye to your jawbone now whilst you can still talk!

[bobscanfly]

@narnasqueneth so? at least he'll have a badass vid to show!! the video will do the talking for him...

"so bob what happened?"

*shows vid*

"oh...ok..."

[motolegion]

hi champ how did you wire up the mic on the contour hd

[mevd]

Check out Mountainash's channel. He has produced a video series containing step-by-step instructions for installing the external mic.

[alwayslast179]

i like your helmet cam setup with the kodak. the other setups on youtube seem to obstruct the view somewhat. can you provide any info on how you did it?

thanks.

Awesome review man. I just wish the contourHD came compatible to plug an external mic into it.

[KiLLaBYTe1]

[boobtubeviewr]

Very interesting that u have both the old & new motovlogging cam setups. Most informative review btw :-)
