So I realized i purchased the hd go pro to film myself. You only have so many of those helmet mounts. I really wanted my friends to be able to film me without giving out the mounts. So I was trying to figure out a free way to make a follow cam mount using materials that I already have. Old dented baseball bat, ductape, and the plastic stand that the camera was mounted on in the case. What is your mounting technique for follow cams NS? Post em up! Check out mine!

I'm going to get the handle bar mount for my pole.  For following other people, I put the bend arm on my normal mount and it gets the camera out in front and closer and higher.  I haven't tried it yet but I will test it out today or tomorrow.
