Jdubs Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Only pointing back to my kids, but you can simply flip to mount forward too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jdubs Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Oh thanks. That was a couple of years ago so I think they are both on 59" ski. Boy was 5 and girl was 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ral Posted December 16, 2013 Author Baller Share Posted December 16, 2013 Which ski? I need one, but have found only 62"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Chef23 Posted December 16, 2013 Baller Share Posted December 16, 2013 @jdubs great video those kids have a great future in front of them if they want it. @ral when they are small there is usually nothing wrong with a bigger ski. More support at slower speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdubs Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 My son was on the OBrien siege jr. and my daughter was on an old Kidder (which she doesn't use but won't let me sell). Still have the little OBrien if you are looking to buy one. I am guessing you don't care if it has a Gopro mount on it. I also have a Wiley's XXS binding that mounts up If you are looking for a new one - I also have an Obrien elite jr 62" I am also looking to let go. If you are interested my wife would love to rid the house of some of our old skis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller RazorRoss3 Posted December 16, 2013 Baller Share Posted December 16, 2013 I've never mounted the gopro on my ski but I have had a friend who had a harness and wanted me to wear it for a promo video for our collegiate team. It came out fairly cool, you could see the tip of the ski cross under the rope in the finish of the turn and it was an interesting view in the reach.

Baller MarcusDski Posted December 17, 2013 Baller Share Posted December 17, 2013 @ral I have given up on using the gopro on the front of my ski. Sure, it gets cool footage but I found that when crossing the wakes the mount would snap clean off. I contacted gopro about this and they replaced the mounts but I still would rather use it on my chest, which is also a cool angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ski6 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 - Go Pro Summer - Go Pro Winter Have a look here at my videos. There is some Gopro footage from the ski. I used the suction cup mount from gopro and seems to hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Tom351 Posted August 27, 2014 Baller Share Posted August 27, 2014 A GoPro on a mini course turn buoy works well if you are not looking to see your entire pass (and can keep it pointed in the right direction) These angles that I have done look cool- but are not practical for everyday use or skiing at 100%: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
