Great stuff Jake, thanks for posting it. It reminds me of the images that came out of a video camera that I mounted on a hang glider once. It was for a foot launch off a cliff in the Sequachie Valley, TN. It looked like I was flying over a herd of broccoli instead of tree canopies.

They've got this funky radial ramp, great view too.

The quality was not too good possibly due to glare. I'm thinking about getting a helmet mount camera. I've seen one called the Extreme II that goes for a little less than $250. The quality is about the same on the demo videos they have on their web site. I would pay more if the quality was better.

Cheers,
Jake
