Sup-
Here's a vid of a lap from this morning on Clearwater Creek. Flows have been good up here for the past coupla days, but need more rain to hold any longer. This was a little solo mission to test out the "scorpion camera riggin" i've set up on a Burn.....shit sucked to paddle with. Enjoy

Where is that camera mounted? What is a scorpion rig? Pretty wild angle for self shooting, way better than a helmet cam!

"The Scorpion Cam" is pretty much the name I came up with as an alternative to "heavy ass piece of $h!t hanging over my head trying to kill me". ha. -its a manfrotto tripod strapped and mounted to the stern with a Canon HD cam housed in a waterproof casing. The last shot you see is the system catching "The Clit" and freaking stopping me dead in my tracks. Fun stuff..glad you liked...it's gunna take some re-vamping.

If it was tilted up just a hair you could see what is coming better. I kept finding myself trying to look up my monitors top.

Too cool! Please shoot some more footage soon.
Oh, and more Rammstein, please.

Awesome, I second Dave's comment about tilting slightly up. I really need to motivate for a Clearwater trip soon, so many boofs on that creek. The rapid at 1:00 looked sweet.
