GoPro MudFlap Mount?

[colossus 0]

Does anyone have any pictures of MudFlap mounts for GoPros? I have seen chest mounts, but I have not seen any for mudflaps?

I have seen videos of people using them on youtube... but alas no pics. If you have used one, how well did it work for you?

Thanks!

The ones I've seen used are just mudflap mounts for altimeters that have modified. Bonehead makes one as do a few other companies.

Talk to Monkeyboy here on DZ.com. His altimeter mount works quite nicely.

I have a "wedge" mount for my alti on the left side. I was not even thinking about the Bonehead mount.

I know that it is angled... is that an issue or an advantage as it would point the camera to my face? (I am not that ugly you know! )

Any other issues mounting the camera to the bonehead mount?

A "Wedge" brand (Lookma) won't work. Not stiff enuff.
The stickon base works on Monkey's, and the camera can be angled pretty easily.

Cool... I know what my next purchase is going to be. Thanks!

Are you speaking from experience? :)

Looking at it more, yeppers I think that Bonehead mount might just do the trick.

I made a wingsuit jump with the GoPro on the mudflap once. I just used the bicycle helmet mount that was delivered with the helmet kit.

During opening I managed to hit the camera with the wing, so it didn't film the whole opening in the proper orientation, but otherwise it worked fine.

Not personal experience, but seeing somepeople with low jump numbers focus a lot of how awesome the angle is, and forget there is a pilotchute passing there (people mounting them on their right foot etc).

Never hurts to comment on the (seemingly) obvious stuff...it may not be as obvious for everyone else

The Bonehead mount I have is not angled like the new ones are and it works great.

I have made both the angled and flat style. They work great and are real easy to install/remove without having to deal with the velcro.

50 donations so far. Give it a try.

Well, the winter was really long, and I had way too much time on my hands... I also decided to try to make my own GoPro Mudflap mount...

What are your thoughts? I based the attachment on other mudflap mounts that I have seen before. I have not had a chance to fly with it yet, but it seems very secure.
