Awesome vid Max! :D Where do you put the camera on the center strut? Do you put it closer to the leading or trailing edge? Also do you have to adjust the angle or leave it flat against the strut?

Good stuff! I've never seen video from that angle. Surprising how you seemed to stay centered for most of the time.

Thanks! It was a fun day!

Jeff,
Center strut, closer to the leading edge... The http://kitehero.com/kitehero-camrig/ will do the job... CAMRIG is not designed to work with GoPro's, but after some homemade modification, the camera fits perfectly.

I hope to ride with you guys soon.

Would you reccommend this camrig for the GoPro? Simple modification? Sorta spendy!

I have been kiting 4 or 5 times with the camrig and a couple of times I crashed the kite and the camera was still firmly attached... I used a steak knife to make the modification (had to cut some rubber). Pretty hard to explain here, but next time I see you I will explain what I did.
