Quality video footage of yourself landing those kick ass tricks and stunts is essential in extreme sports. However, it’s not always possible to have someone there filming every minute of the action for you.
Ensuring you won’t miss a trick (on video anyway) the 4P Extreme Sports Camera, designed by Patrick Nally, allows you to film yourself. With the GPS beacon strapped to your arm, the 4P camera receives your location and keeps its ‘eye’ on you the entire time.
Being able to record your every awesome move when you are alone makes this camera a ‘must have’ for anyone who’s trying to secure sponsorship in an extreme sport.
