There was a guy with a helmet cam at lunchtime pickup today

Recommended Posts

I actually thought it was pretty cool. There was not a lot of skill there, but it was almost like we were trying extra hard because we could've been in his line of sight. Never got the chance to ask why he was doing it, though.

Have any of you guys/gals ever seen that?

A bunch of my buddies have this one for surfing/skating/snowboarding, I've thought of borrowing one just for fun at stick time with my friend.

It would be cool. I was going to use mine at Winterfest but the batteries were dead. I still think it would be a cool idea

They used these in 24/7- had them mounted on the benches and in the corners of the dressing rooms. The HD ones are super quality.

I know that the Bauer/Mission guys use theirs quite a bit.

Maybe I can pick one up and look down at my new socks the whole time eh?! :cool:

There was a guy in the division below us using one in mens league for a while. Would be interesting to see the footage. I've used my flip mino hd mounted on a suction cup on our bench before.

My buddy with his GoProHD and I skating around:

Him at a couple of practices:

That was really cool actually. The stick view was nuts lol

My cousin is big into bmx dirt jumping and has a couple videos of him riding. Backflips look absolutely terrifying, but just reinforces how crazy he is.

I have one and have filmed a couple of games and practices with it. GoPro HD is the way to go! Great little camera

Which model do you use?

GoPro only makes a couple of models. I have the HD 960. It's great. They make a 1080 but I've heard it will freeze from time to time. Contour makes a cylindrical version, it's not too bad one of my skiing buddies uses it but he likes the video quality of the GoPro better. Both are around 300 bucks for the camera.

Guy had one in a pick up session a couple weeks ago, has his head down and runs into another guy. Ended up needed a dozen stitches. They have no place on the ice when people are playing hockey.

My bro tried his new GoPro out at a pickup game we played on the weekend. It's really cool! I got to see how I look from other players point of view. Also when I set him up for a goal from behind the net, I got to admire my beautiful pass over and over in slo-mo.

One other thing that was fun, is listening to the stuff said by the guys on the bench. It's like you're right there playing.

I don't think I would try it in a league game, but for a friendly game it was a lot of fun.

The guy I skated with had it right above the CCM logo on his helmet, but I'm not sure how he kept it there.

Very cool, I would love to have one of those for a practice, or pick-up with the buddies.

Reminds me of the swedish team promo that has one of their players wearing one, I loooved that promo.

I think it was Djurgarden, but I`ll see if I can find it.

EDIT: Found it. It was Frolunda.
