 Thank you my brother.We were talking about it at work on Friday and snowy turns up with it on Sunday.It was just a trial but we now know where we have to fix it.
as for VOD im not so sure but we had a blast doing this video.
When you make one please let me know and post a pic of it so we can use your ideas hahaha.

Ride on
PS...how is the shoulder mate?

 Thank you matey!
My idea was to have one more roller in the middle opposing the ropes direction.
So, you have two now with the rope running under then one more on top sort of pushing on the rope might give stability, thats my plan but I dont know!
As for snowy Good job mate!

Innovative ideas are always a kick in gas!

My shoulder is doing great!
I have gained about 20% movement and the pain is about 60% less.
One more month in the sling and the bone should mend naturally while the ligaments heal as well!
RideOn flying foxes on rainbow skies!

 Love the home made cable cam, worked really well i reckon.I would love one of those RC drones you operate from your Iphone,not sure if it would take the weight of a Contour though...

 Hey mate....yeah he is finally loosing his puppy fat...this old dog keeps getting bigger hahahaha.Not a bad effort for a cable cam but atleast we now know how to make it work better.The trance is going great and is very fast on the trails.Due to the longish rear end it is harder to jump than most bikes but it is a trail/ XC bike so im happy with the trade off.

 Birgit suggests connecting the bike and the cable cam with a rope that would pull the camera at the right speed !!! ???
