 Poster: A snowHead
|
Just prepping my ski adventures...6wks in advance and want to attach my new handsfree camcorder to the helmet using the adhesive pad provided with it (3M pad that sticks to the surface and the camera attachment clips to the other side). Seems slicker than the goggle strap provided. Only question is would the 3m pad wreck the helmet material/design if I tried to remove it at a later date or is there something that would safely remove the pad without leaving marks, or should I just stick to the goggle strap??
thanks

a warm hairdrier will remove the 3m adhesive pads and in most cases will do this without leaving a mark but some of that will depend on the design and finish of the surface in question. I would say that any minor embelishment left will soon be superceeded by other knocks and scratches.
however the, assumption here, gopro helmet strap is pretty good, if you are worried about it coming off then use the tether strap that should have come with it. alternatively a cale tie or a boot lace works well.
my suggestion is that whatever you go with a security tether is a good cover all.

thanks ansta1, good point - never thought about it coming off when using the 3m pad. The goggle strap is a really good one (not Go Pro - got a Muvi HD Pro). May stick with the goggle strap and use the 3m pads for something more stable - using one on an egg timer to film long xposure and spef up via computer - nice FX
thanks for info. Will have hairdryer at hand incase I go for that!

Jon Ford, not a problem, if you want some other mounting options, try the side of the boot (outside side of course), doesnt work in deep powder but otherwise gives a really intreesting angle, particularly when cut into other pieces.
