JackSA 0 #1 April 10, 2012 Hey y'all, Need some advice please. I'm looking at buying a helmet that can either have a Canon stills camera or Sony CX on top, with a GoPro mounted on the forehead on some type of bracket. Does anyone have such a config? Thanks for the help. Cheers, Jacques Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon2 2 #2 April 10, 2012 A flattop pro or flattop narrow (for a topmount CX) would work for that config out of the box. But have you taken a look around in the photography forum yet? ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mchamp 1 #5 April 13, 2012 Taken from the photography forum from a buy named BASE1179 Personally I find this the perfect setup with perhaps a change of camera and lens though preferable with Nikon or Canon For info regarding lift ticket prices all around the world check out http://www.jumpticketprices.com/dropzones.asp Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

axelandr 0 #7 April 13, 2012 The setup you're asking for can easily be done with for instance a Tonfly 2X helmet combined with the Zkulls Hero Overkill mount.. See pics here: http://www.chutingstar.com/newgear_en/zkulls-hero-overkill-dual-mount.html and here if you want more options on the mount, by using the Zkulls Hero Overkill PRO mount, here: http://www.chutingstar.com/newgear_en/zkulls-hero-overkill-pro-mount.html The Tonfly helmets are, IMO, by far the comfiest helmets I have ever tried, but as helmets are put on your melon they are prone to the individual shape of it.. try before you buy!
