real cool mount! I would hate to smash it, but if you know the trails you are running that would be awesome!

I would argue the redneck comment, as it did require a little thought. He didn't try to nail the camera to the Jeep or anything.

The videos themselves are nothing special just wanted to get them off pavement to try the mounts



Front Mount HD (going back down the trail)


YouTube - RC Front



Undercarriage Mount HD (going up the trail)


YouTube - RC Undercarriage



I still have to try a mount that extends out from the vehicle and shoots down the side of the jeep. But there are some problems that I need to sort out with that one first
Great Video! I took my Jeep up there before I put a lift on it. I made it all the way to the mine but without my muffler!

once. Most of of the time I can catch myself (been riding since I was 7 and racing since I was 11). That video is kinda lame since I had to film, ride back up, ride past the camera, turn around and get the camera lol. oh well



and I actually just use iMovie as my video editing program. It seems to work just fine. for everything that I need.

I ran through a cactus once when i was training at Ft. Huachuca, AZ... That stings!

I'll have to check out iMovie. Thanks!

Just got done reading through all of this, you have a VERY nice jeep man! That underbody video was sweet. I actually posted it on Facebook for my buddies to see.

I don't know how you can afford all of this at this age. I'm 19, and a broke college student. Although, I bet it's nice that you don't have to DD it
