that was just the tail end of my climbing line clipped on to the rigging line, then through a krab on my harness to keep it at hand. not a fool proof technique and goes without saying that you have to be 100% sure your ropes arent going to snag anywhere.

Cool vid! I'm likin the wide angle of that camera. What did you do with the wood? Does Beech make good firewood? Keep em' coming!

Great video Steve.

 

[stevebullman]

beech is fantastic firewood...the best in my opinion. The estate kept all this wood unfortunately.

Steve do you use the 30 fps or 60 fps setting. I tried it on 60 and it looked really choppy on my pc.

I had to use mine on 30 fps. It does seem real choppy on 60. I am going to email the company and find out whats up.

im ebarrassed to say, i didnt know there was such a setting. i assume im using it on the stadard setting which i guess would be 30

i was under the impression this was the standard rate even for tv viewing? so i dont see the point of the 60fps option?

Steve,
Like the video, Do you have it mounted on the top or side of your helmet, and what helmet do you have?

I like the low magnification that makes the trees look like they are 300 footers.

Nice job Steve, especially felling the stem.

Beech is a great firewood, if you can split the stuff. I broke two mauls trying to split some by hand awhile ago.
