because sony has video stabilizer system, as you can see in this video the image is very stable but this sacrifices field of view and make the helmet move around personally i think kinda weird but i'm very surprised how stable was the image. (someone corrects me if i'm wrong)
Image stabilization makes sense with a chest harness where theres a bunch of flapping and vibration. Helmets provide stable platform in my experience, no stablization needed. The chesty is still the supreme angle, with the worst image quality, where the helmet is the uninteresting angle with the best quality. Cool video, shame it was facing too far down! Impressive drops too... hate to have that as an afterthought
Man, that dog is in literally every video from that race. I mean, come on, it's not too much to ask to chain that dog just for a couple hours so that not every rider that comes down that hill has to dodge it? That's an accident waiting to happen... And given Mick's speed, I don't think the dog would live to see another day if he actually hit it.
Really don't like the footage, i'm guessing its the image stabilzation - it takes all the visceral energy out and makes it look slow and smoothed out. Was boring to watch and i know it shouldn't have been - it was Sick Mick.
