Any word on when the shadowbox will be available? I tried the link to their website and it is blank.

Any suggestion for go pro HD mounts? I already have the helmet and board mounts. I am looking for line and strut mounts. I saw a strut mount on amazon and it seems pretty flimsy. Any feedback? I recall reading here about a home made mount with duct tape and Velcro. Any feedback on that?

PM Stringy on the forum. His full name is Jim Stringfellow and he makes some nice mounts for GoPro cams to fit on your front lines a bit above where they split from the chicken rope.

Helmet, board, line, and strut,.. all you will need is someone on the shore with a big gun and some sticks!

The shadowbox app for the iPhone 4 is supposed to be coming out this Winter. A good reason to buy an iPhone if you don't have one already. Not sure what the price will be or what kind of waterproof case they will be selling.

think you could use the new ipod touch instead?

Will it have all the new features but without the phone part, and the large cost?

Just curious.

Thanks for the leads. I contacted stringy. Hopefully he can help.

Sometime back someone posted shadowbox telemetry. Was that a prototype?

hey guys, thanks for the kind words. My only experience with POV cameras are really with the GoPro line so I am probably a little biased.
The kiteline mount gives you one of the most unique perspectives of what we love to do.
I'm coming up with some new prototypes and gonna try them in cape hatteras probably next week. Hopefully they work out for me there. If so expect to see new offerings on kitehero.com

If you want some comparisons on the various POV cams, check these guys out.
