Where's the Skymama interview?



Douglas definitely gets an A for effort in trying to get me in front of the camera , but I refused. I didn't have anything interesting to say anyway! :P

I would love to see something about the skysystems c6 (I saw the skyshots vid) please and thank you!



Firstly, thanks for all the videos! They are awesome and I really appreciate the effort.

And although a little off topic I would also love to know what the hell happened with skysystems C6 helmet? Haven't seen anything about it, and after all the hype it's a little disappointing not to be getting some info....
Everything else is just noise...

Skysystems felt the helmet wasn't ready for primetime, and therefore declined to be interviewed.

Ok, fair enough. Hopefully we'll find out something more in the coming days...

Thanks again for the videos!

Thanks Douglas, once again. It's a pretty big job, especially for somebody who told me a few days ago that he wouldn't be making videos this year :-) Anyway, I appreciate them very much, as always, and am glad you're even pointing out to some of the interviewees that some of the viewers are new jumpers doing "the sponge thing". As you know, that's me.

I was as surprised as anyone to find out I'd be doing the vids; PIA had asked someone else.

That person bailed on them at the last minute. I was asked to help out, but was already in Florida, so no gear with me. Late afternoon on Sunday...no pro video rental stores open. Best Buy didn't have much, so we did what we could with what we could source on very short notice. Scotty Burns agreed to be a camera op, and he had a half-decent shotgun mic. All in all, it didn't turn out too badly. I'm glad people find them of value.
