Stunt Plane Near Barf on Camera – Drift HD170 Stealth
June 23, 2011 By Leave a Comment
Spencer Suderman Air Shows takes a flight in their stunt plane and has a near barf experience caught on Camera. Drift HD170 Stealth POV helmet cameras were used to capture the action. The key accessory is the Drift 3.5mm Female Mic-in Adapter Cable coupled to the camera which allows any other combination of third party microphones or connectors to be connected. So Spencer added in the tower communications as well as his and the airsick passengers conversation. We can only imagine what a tossing your stomach gets on a flight like this.

Sky High Adventure Commando Course
May 27, 2011 By Leave a Comment
Sky High Adventure Park at Holiday Valley, as seen from Rescue Monitor trainer Brian Earley. He wears a Drift HD170 Stealth Camera on his head as he takes on the Commando Double Black Diamond Course.
The Aerial Park is a series of platforms and “bridges” built in a 4 acre section of the woods. The platforms are built in the trees and the bridges connect the platforms. The bridge may be a log, hanging chunks of wood or other obstacles or ladders and the challenge is to figure out how to get across to the next platform. It is not a strength issue; it is more strategy and balance. There are 8 courses with different levels of difficulty and the more difficult the course, the higher up it is in the trees. There are 2 yellow courses, 2 greens, 2 blues, a single black diamond and a double black…The Commando! All courses have at least one zip line and some have several. Everyone wears a harness with a special locking lanyard that safeguards you from falling if you slip or let go. Children must be at least 7 years old, and all guests must be able to perform certain physical tasks to participate. There is a weight limit of 250 pounds.
