i was there during the interview and after i said" so contour is doing tHE gopro thing" haha he felt insulted and said" thats like adidas trying to do the nike thing" we ALL know deep down inside that GO PRO is BEST!!!!

Contour (Nov 10, 2010 at 9:53)

@mtbikeadam Have you used a Contour before? Both cameras are really good and both have positives and negatives. No one is trying to one up anyone here. We're all just trying to get more people to shoot POV footage. Seeing what it's like to ride dirt jumps like that is cool, no matter what camera the riders decide to use.

Great riding, money can make all the difference in the amount of time it takes to get back to "work", welcome back Cam. Should have rode with a GoPro HD, much smoother video at that resolution.

spankthewan (Nov 8, 2010 at 15:42)

...just curious. Why is Cam not riding the new Fox 831?

ORgrown420 (Nov 9, 2010 at 11:19)

he is riding and 831, it probly black to match his bike if your refering to the new white one?

spankthewan (Nov 9, 2010 at 11:55)

No, I am referring to the NEW Fox 831...as in Kashima coated stanchions. I am wondering if there is a reason he chose to ride last year's model.

GoPro was a major sponsor of the event. We were there to support our riders. AT and his crew did an amazing job of putting this event together and we were happy to be there to see it and get good footage from our riders.

dude when cam mccaul backflipped the cruiser bike on nitro circus i almost pooped my pants. he should do it in a competition for the lulz

i like to see competition to go pro but that big watermark in the corner is likely to piss some people off

B-Nay (Nov 8, 2010 at 8:13)

Was this shot at the 1080 P setting? My buddy has a contour HD and we havent been able to get that clear of a picture out of it. Any tips? Its also good to see Cam back in the game.

johnpit14 (Nov 8, 2010 at 8:25)

no effort just riding Smile

Rolino (Nov 8, 2010 at 8:40)

StefanGlander (Nov 8, 2010 at 9:24)

3 months? you are a sav Cam.

Contour (Nov 8, 2010 at 9:38)

@b-nay this was shot at 720p 60fps. We find that if you're moving quickly, as these guys are, it will give you a super smooth picture.

3 Months is a really fast recovery, I remember for my femur snap being out for like a year. way to do it boss

Szlav (Nov 8, 2010 at 17:14)

do you guys have any "full" clips? cause it seems that everybody is cutting the clips into some kind of film, (which is cool) but I would love to see a complete helmet cam!

Atrak (Nov 8, 2010 at 18:11)

kinda interesting, but according to the gopro website, Cam is one of their team riders as of september 22? quick change of hands?

thedemo7rider (Nov 8, 2010 at 18:49)

Rolino (Nov 8, 2010 at 19:30)
