Jody,

I'd be very much surprised if they let you jump any camera right now:

3.4.1 Vooraleer met een camera te mogen springen moet de springer minimum het
C-brevet hebben. De Centrumleider moet een toelating geven.

But.. But.. But.. Maybe he's got them mad skills

I will have that this summer?
But pls could you next to that give information between the difference....

Hi all,

I'v been looking for something to record some jumps with a decent quality and just to have some vids from skydiving.
As a student I think the gopro hero is my solution.

I can buy a gopro hero (normal) from someone who has never used it (he wanted his children to use it for horsebackriding , but they don't use it)

Anyhow.

It is the normal gopro hero. NOT the wide.

Im not an video expert so here some questions:

Will this be a huge difference with the wide camera?
What will be the difference between video/pictures?
Is it usefull or not?

Let me know

Thanks!

hi all,

Im new to this forum but I am a skydiver..the reason im posting this is because i can't find a very nice wallpaper of skydiving.

So this is a call to everybody who has picture in large size, post them here (if that is possible?). Consider it has to be a wallpaper, so posting a 50 way can be nice but not very interesting as wallpaper...

Also big picture to print posters for on my studentplace.

I hope i will finally find some beautiful wallpapers
