hmmmmm. Have any footage with yours.

edit. Just went and looked at it. Nice kit. Exactly what I want. Don't know where I'm gonna pull $600 though. haaaa.

if i didnt have a camcorder, i'd spend my $600 on a $350 mini DV and their bullet cam.

But yeah carrying a pack is a pain, but a mini DV camcorder isnt that much bigger than the racer package unit. You could still put it in your jacket pocket.

I would buy the racer package after i had a camcorder, since you will get more use out of a camcorder.

If you are headed up, and I'm not using mine, you can borrow mine man.

I don't have any video right now. I've got a pre-production box when he was first starting the company. I need to send him the box for some upgrades actually. You can borrow it any weekend that I'm not using it, just pick it up on the way up to tahoe man.

If you want to see some samples here is his Youtube site: http://www.youtube.com/user/jamesnwilson1982

word... you rock.

I'd def. like to take one for a test spin. I'm sure it will help talk me in to getting one. haaaa.

I'd really like to get footage on our annual i-club trip to my cabin because at times there's like 6 of us smashing powder at the same time and sometimes I just like to watch everyone go... haaa.

If I come on this i-club trip I think we need to set up at least one run where EVERYONE goes down at once on the same run. I'll run trail cam then blast past all you slow pokes toward the bottom... haaaa.
