I recently got a new GoPro camera and wanted to test it out. I am planning on shooting a real, badass video with this kid named Colby Bernier who lives on my lake and is a really good friend of mine, but first I needed to test the gopro and see how it handled everything.

Keep in mind that I didnt shoot this with the intentions of making a little video so its not the best you've ever seen. Also it was the first ride since last year so I'm a little rusty

Those cameras are bad ass.. I have seen a bunch of footage from people riding quads, blades, dirtbikes and now wakeboarding and every time I see the quality it makes me want one..

BTW.. where are you at? Looks like a place in GA where my mom lives..

Yeah they really are badass and was definitly worth the investment.

I'm on Lake Mitchell in Clanton, Alabama. I love it

How do you have it mounted? On a helmet? I also have a GoPro that I use for motocross and I've seen a few wake videos but they're mostly mounted on the board. This is the first I've seen from POV perspective.

I just used the helmet strap that comes with the kit but tied a strap that went under my chin kinda like a chin strap on a football helmet. I also attached a little floaty that you would put your boat keys on or something so that if by some chance it did come off my head it would float.

Gotcha. I didn't think you were wearing a helmet but I couldn't figure out how it was mounted. Cool footage. I may have to try that this summer.

Yeah bro it was a blast. My next move is to find out how to make the footage off the tube less shaky which I might accomplish by letting out some air in the tube, but I'll just have to try and see
