The parts where he's holding the camera at the end of the pole....it's looks like stuff I've seen where the rider has the pole extending off his helmet.

How does Jon keep himself in the frame when he's free-arming it like that? it's pretty steady too, I would think it would be bouncing all over?

stick straight - camera wide (that and some magic powers)

we've seen some really cool steady shots from ski poles (shy in the snow and bambam flying)

stringy's been working on some new innovative mounts...
