Berto Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 So the video is pretty boring. I had another one that was a bit better but it was too long an deleted by Youtube (after 2.5 hours uploading!!!) Basically this is at Black Mountain in Evarts, KY. You may have seen a few of the other pictures from the trip. The video starts at the top of what is called the 'stadium' ( 1/4 circle worth of climbs with 4-5 steps on the way up, lot of fun to jump on the way up) Then at the bottom there is a real rocky trail (its a huge pain to go up) there are lots of pretty good sized rocks and make it hard to climb. The video really doesn't do it justice. Towards the end there is a pretty good drop off, You can see me chicken out from riding my buddies quad down it, I HATE riding someone elses quad. Default resolution is really crappy, you can pick 720p. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYqUQdiCjs4 Anyway here is a pic at the helicopter pad on the top of the mtn. http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c192/BertoBizkit/Black%20Mountain%202008/DSC04263.jpg Now i'm ready to GOPRO tail of the dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xyster101 Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 That picture is neat and your right, the video is boring. Also try mounting it to the vehicle, less bobbing around usually. I love my GoPro, but it is an old one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berto Posted May 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 Mounting it to the vehicle would have made it waaaaay worse in terms of camera movement. :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldsoda Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 [...]Default resolution is really crappy, you can pick 720p. [...] Just FYI, you can link directly to the HD resolution so you dont have to adjust it... just add "&hd=1" without quotations to do so... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYqUQdiCjs4&hd=1 I just picked up a gopro as well, pretty cool toy!
