Drift rigging over river.

[Rupe]

Not had much spare time for any editing recently so this is just an uncut clip.

 

Drifting limbs (and eventually the whole tree) from one garden, with no access, into next doors garden where we had already done a load of work and had our chipper in there. River underneath and tree right on the bank so hardly any standing space below the tree but we got it all over into next door ok and right into the chipper.

 

Only two clips, new camera, hadnt quite got the hang of it yet!

Good stuff rupe, missed your videos, watched the storm damaged horse chestnut one the other week. The one where you dropped the stem at the end

[Rupe]

Cheers mate. Which video was that then? Are you sure it was mine?

 

I'll try and make a few more, your going to love the helmet mounted selfie stick I've made!!

 

Can you remind me what editing software you use? I still haven't actually edited any HD footage yet!

I enjoyed watching those Rupe, interesting work.

Interesting, I've often thought about a similar technique but hadn't seen anyone do it. Thanks for posting

Rupe I use the free Gopro software. Download is available on their website. Do you have a Mac? iMovie is usually free from Apple.

Oh as for the selfie stick?? Wtf!! Haha

 

I've tried mounting the gopro on the front of helmet but everything seems really in your face!! I have just done this spike cam though

Someone needed to invent it.

I dont have a mac, only a slightly old desktop. Not ancient, 4 years old. Last time I tried to edti HD it had a fit! Hoping new software might help. Will get a new PC this year though.

 

Anyway. Basic selfie stick, my little drift camera mounts straight onto the end.

 

Then I mounted a helmet mount on the fat end of the selfie stick, using an ice axe mount that i had lying around which has a 1/4 thread and then a bike light mount which bolts on and wraps the selfie stick in place!

 

I like the spike cam idea! I have adhesive pad mounts for my camera so it will go straight on. Also they will stick to a rigging plate quite well!!

 

Oh, I dont have any climbing kit at home so have used my skiing helmet in the photos!
