Thought of a helmet cam but that would just an angle of what goes on in front of me. Handheld wouldn’t do either – too shaky.

Instead, dealextreme.com came to the rescue with a very inexpensive stainless steel handheld monopod that extended right out in front of us.

Very happy with this purchase.
