Another site - helmetcameracentral is worth a look.
Has anyone used Helmet Hero?
As a motorcyclist I like the idea of being able to use it for that purpose as well as the AI. The best times I have had on the AI certainly don't allow you to hold a video camera.
If I go with the first option I guess I will still need to have a waterproof still camera - but I think I already have that issue covered.
Any thoughts
