Mounting a PC105

[mbs66 0]

I have a standard Bonehead mindwarp and i want to mount a pc105 to it. All the accessories like the mounting bracked, chin strap and all that are quite pricey. Can anyone suggest a cheap, but safe way of mounting it... and no duck tape isnt always the answer!

Here's an idea
And just for laughs

My other ride is the relative wind.

Well to eliminate some cost, if you only going to use a PC-105 then you really don't need a chin cup. I have shot video on hundreds of jumps without a chin-cup. I only put one on when I started to shoot stills. As far as a mounting bracket, a L bracket will do, but check out ADI's box, http://www.arrowdynamicsinc.com/accessories.html
It's only $72 and will keep you camera protected. You'll want to get a camera condom (about $30)

Helmet $180
Camera $800
Wide Angle $130
Accessories $200

Jumping with video proof - priceless

You can make a camera condom yourself.

My mate went to a scuba dive shop and bought an old crappy thin wet suit for £5 ($10), cut it up and sewed it together into a great homemade camera condom. He got about 3 or 4 condoms out of it for him and some other camera jumpers.

His dad also has a professional workshop so he simply cut out some high-grade aluminium and bent it into an L-bracket. Its indistinguishable from a bought one but it has been made in a pro workshop so this element would depend on what equipment you have at your disposal.
