Just had a thought, if it just so happens you need a new mp3 player and want a helmet cam why not the new Ipod nano with a cam !

I was surprised to see some of the guys at the Olympic boarder cross wearing them - I thought they would have had more to worry or think about than filming their run. Though it was amazing shots they showed from them.

The best thing about the helmet cam is that once it has been set up (if done correctly) there is nothing to think about.

I was curious about some of the guys wearing helmet cams as well - I know the "drag" effect would be minimal but at this level of competition, every edge is sought. Also, they all seem to be wearing fairly standard boarder gear, i.e. baggy. I am surprised that they do not go for aerodynamic gear like the other disciplines. Anyobdy know why?

There has been a lot of discussion on that elsewhere. Boarders wear baggy clothes, if they started wearing skin tight suits boardercross would become uncool very quickly. They are actually fairly not-baggy as far as new ski kit goes.

I didn't think they were as baggy either.
I was shocked to see the americans in jeans though It was absolute quality, really looking forward to the women's tonight.
people who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do
