Finally a rapid running video in high res

[Quicksilver]

Finally got some time today to get a run in and have a camera operator. Still working the bugs out with this new camera, bit of glare, but still a major jump from the old cam. It's tough with full sun and rapids, almost need a polarized lens. And you get 3 and a half minutes of rapid running. Also glad to say, I didnt damage my impeller, without a screen. You even get to see my crazy fast toyota camry j/k.

Man, you gotta be sober to run that course.

[hammertime]

that looks like sooo much fun.........i love that you did something different.........that is sweeeeet

[Quicksilver]

thanks, it is a bit tougher, which is why I like it. I did run it up on shore twice, I dont have the best distance eyesight, it's amazing I can run it at all. Makes running lakes very boring, not that it isnt fun, but after you start doing this it's tough to go back. I ordered 3 impellers yesterday, so I can have a LOT of fun without having to really worrying about sucking something up.

Is there suppose to be sound??? I couldn't hear anything...

[ReddyWatts]

I can hear Stephenwolf playing and the boat motor singing along. Pretty cool!

yeah that's the fat boy slim remix of magic carpet ride. I love that one. I was kind of disappointed the boat didnt barrel roll at all, the last time I was out it happened twice.

My next plan is to make a ramp to bring to the stream, should make it even more interesting
