    GoPro mounting options

    Anyone here ever use the chest harness mount or the head strap mount?

    I think i have the Head strap mount somewhere in my house, but i have never used it.

    Tough Mudder is coming up and i plan to record myself going through it, does anyone here have any comments to make with there experience using these two mounts?

    Based on what people think here i will go buy that mount and use it.

    Used the chest mount with snow sports. Works well until you fall onto it; hope the ground's soft. You sure it won't catch on netting and climbing over things?

    Wear a bicycle helmet & mount it on that.

    Re: GoPro mounting options

    Anywho back on topic, I am leaning more towards the chest mount, i just wasn't sure how that POV would look when climbing walls and....actually as i just typed that i realized i need to army crawl in tough mudder, may need to do the head mount unless i just grab the camera and hold it in my hand when i crawl.

    You didn't have any issues with it slipping off or anything? that's my biggest fear.

    I think Grim's gonna need something much bigger, considering he referred to the 'white/grn 'Busa in the other thread as a butt plug......
