Not so long ago, anyone participating in sporting events would never get to watch themselves.

Then, someone got the bright idea to videotape the events so they could be saved and rewatched.

Here’s what the typical scenario used to be: Some nice friend would show up with one of those gigantic camcorders, one of the ones you need two hands to hold, and attempt to catch your mountain biking exploits on tape? The video was usually very jumpy, you weren’t always in the line of sight, and the sound would be muffled.

I suppose that’s better than nothing, but there are a lot of flaws to this method of recording your sporting events.

Fortunately, camcorder technology has come a long way in the last few years. Cameras and recorders are smaller, have better resolution, and have better sound than ever before.

The newest helmet cams and bullet cams (or lipstick cams), with small personal digital video recorders are the perfect solution for recording your sporting events. The tiny camera attaches securely to your helmet and the small, lightweight personal digital video recorder tucks away safely into your pocket.

With a solid-state design and no moving parts, these devices are very durable and can really take the abuse of extreme sports. You can’t hold onto one of those old camcorders and record what you see! (Well, let’s just say that’s been proven to be a really bad idea and you really shouldn’t…..)

The Perfect Way to Record Trail Riding and Stunts

The new helmet cams, bullet cams and personal digital recorders are the perfect way to record extreme sports. The helmet cam stays focused on exactly what you see while you are doing any stunts or tricks. Be the first on your block to make skateboarding videos. Be that guy that really tries everything, and makes skydiving videos, too! There are no limits to how the helmet cam can be used to record your sporting achievements.

Let your friend wear the helmet cam and follow you as you power through the mountain biking trail… check out this video for an example:

Easy to Use

Helmet cams with personal digital video recorders are easy to use. Get the equipment set up, and just hit start before you begin. Let the camera roll for the entire event, capturing every highlight, every move, and, every wipeout, too!!

Having the helmet cam attached to your helmet with the recorder in your pocket means no distractions while you are filming your extreme sports video. This means you are safer, your hands are free, and you are better able to concentrate on what you’re doing.

Share the Excitement

With the new helmet cam and personal digital video recorder equipment, it’s really easy to transfer the video footage to your PC and watch it over and over again. It’s simple to make DVDs, or email the videos to your friends and family to show off your tricks. Post your mountain biking footage on video websites like revver.com opr youtube.com and amaze the world.

Be careful about sending it to your mother without proper warning, though. She may not want to know…..

Hunting is often a completely solo sport.

Even when you go with someone else, you will spend much of your time alone. So, after the big hunting trip, you sit around with your buddies, some probably hunt and some don’t, and you re-hash all of your shots, close calls, and perfect hits from your adventure.

What if you could actually show them all what you are talking about?

What if you could actually mount a camera on the end of your gun that would capture every shot? Wouldn’t that be great?

Well, today’s newest bullet or lipstick cameras work perfectly for gun cameras. You can safely and securely mount the helmet camera on your headgear or the bullet camera on the end of your gun and record your shots. These newest cams are used with a mini-personal digital video recorder, to record the entire event on video, start to finish.

So Easy To Use!

The mini personal digital video recorder can be tucked safely into a pocket for easy, hands-free operation. All you have to remember to do is press the ‘start’ button just before you are ready to record, and a continuous video will be made.

Making hunting and shooting videos has never been easier. Whether you are shooting targets, skeet, birds, or big game, you can have the whole adventure recorded and watch it again and again.

When you use the gun mounted camera, there is no distraction from what you are doing. Hands-free operation with continuous recording allows you to concentrate on aiming for the perfect shot, regardless of the target. Without having to remember to start the camera rolling, your shots are practically guaranteed!

So Many Options!

Once you have recorded your video footage, you can so simply download the files from the SD card right onto your PC. You then have the flexibility to watch them from your computer’s hard drive, make DVDs to watch on your television, email the videos to your friends and family to brag about your exploits, or, (and this is the very best option!) send them in to your favorite extreme sports video websites and share them with the entire world!

The gun mounted camera with mini personal digital video recorder provides you with so many options, use one or all of them……

It’s Never Been So Much Fun!

It’s never been this much fun to record your extreme sports. Just because you are doing these activities alone, that doesn’t have to mean that you can’t share them with your friends and family. Now that you will have these extreme sports video recordings, you can explain the “thrill of the chase” to your friends and family, who probably didn’t really understand the excitement before.

And, just think, having that one “perfect shot” moment recorded forever!

At least as good as those mounted antlers, don’t you think? You will certainly agree that the gun mounted camera with mini personal DVR is the greatest gadget ever!

Extreme sports enthusiasts can spend a lot of time trying to tell their friends just how exciting their stunts, or “conquests,” are.

Often the tricks and stunts are just too unbelievable, though, to be properly explained in words.

What if you could actually show your friends exactly what you see and hear while you’re doing your tricks and stunts?

A new personal recording device is available that attaches securely to your helmet and records on a device tucked safely in your pocket, leaving your hands free!

Small and Lightweight DVR

There’s no need to control the device, or keep one hand free to hold it.

Your attention is focused on your extreme sport (as it should be!) and once your camera is safely attached to your helmet, and the recorder is tucked safely into your pocket, the camera and recorder do the rest of the work for you.

Just hit ‘start’ on your helmet cam recorder right before you begin, and your entire event will be captured continuously. When you finish, the stunt, your helmet cam recorder has accurately recorded everything that you were able to see and hear during your event.

Watch your friends be shocked and surprised at just how amazing and exciting it is to perform these stunts.

Advantages to Helmet Cams

Helmet cams and bullet cams (sometimes referred to as lipstick cams) are much safer to use during extreme sports than any hand-held cameras and recorders.

Securely attached to your helmet (you are wearing one, right?), these tiny devices allow you to keep your hands where they need to be.

New helmet cams are capable of making high-resolution recordings that can easily be downloaded to your PC. Make DVDs for yourself documenting your adventures, and easily copy and share them with your friends.

Helmet cams allow you to record exactly what you see, without interfering with your vision in any way. A helmet cam with a recorder is extremely lightweight, and won’t throw off your balance in any way, either.

New technology allows a high quality solid state digital recorder to be made very small. Helmet cams have no moving parts, excellent clarity and performance for the visual and audio components, and are extremely lightweight and convenient.

Not only will what you see be captured clearly, but the microphone will record any sounds you hear or make.

Share the Excitement

Now it’s easy to relive the excitement of your extreme sports for your own enjoyment, and you can very easily share the event with family and friends.

Simple downloading procedures will allow you to watch your recordings over and over, which can be not only fun and exciting, but it can help you improve your technique and your moves.

Get your helmet cam today and start recording your extreme sports events. Today’s technology has created small and lightweight helmet cams or bullet cams and DVRs that make it easier, safer, and more fun than ever to record every minute of your event.
