WOW. That looks really cool. I dont think I would risk skating with it on tho. Also I cant help thinking it might get in the way a bit at the next demo I cover !
I am still plotting on how I can afford a glidecam too and then this mother appears. So much stuff - so little money.

One for the big boys, eh?
I shall however be making a conscious effort to stop spending money on frivolous toys. Hope it lasts!

I could make one of those in about 20 minutes if I cannibalised a Kestrel or two. 
Edit - Just watched the body boom shots again. It's a piece of cake. (to make, not the actual thing :lol: )

Already started BBW. Have to go shopping for a body builders belt and a couple of pieces I can use for the bearings to slot into at the waistline for the tilt, and a couple of straps to go over the shoulders. It's the motorised pan and tilt that could be a problem. Radio controlled car servos and motors maybe an option. I always wanted to do that on the Kestrel but never got around to it. As for a name, I might steal Alan's suggestion for the Glidecam clone for this one. (Raptor) I'm thinking it would sell on eBay very well.
I am a bit worried the operator will look at total tit though.
