So Fusar is coming out with a new helmet cam and blue tooth intercom headset. Half the price if you pre-order. Heard good things about them so i ordered the Mohawk. It's only $199 if you pre-order. Here's a pic. Has some cool features. I like that it's aerodynamic. Fingers crossed that it's going to be good. will keep you posted .

That thing looks the business! I recently bought a Gopro session, and so far I like it for it's ease of use. They are a bit pricey, but I have gotten good results so far.

I shot them a email about adding a communication kit to my original order and i got a response that they just did it for me and thanked me for buying it. Customer service is awesome. I'll keep you guys updated when it comes in next year.

That's a great find and great intro pricing on a pre-order. I like the low profile.

I am still waiting on the Skully or their equivalent, the Guardian. I want a smart helmet with rear view and heads up display. However, I will look forward to a full review Judy!

Judy-
Thanks for the heads up. I ordered one too. Dear one especially likes how it is not so obvious and clunky as the GoPro, to wear on the helmet. I have yet to place the GoPro on my helmet. Have recently used it when I take my 2 Big Boys for their daily walk. Using a harness, on Big Boy 2, get a great view of what is going on at his level of the universe.

The group is now on Indiegogo making a last push effort for orders. Will be curious to see/try and compare to GoPro.

BBM cool. I like the aero dynamic design. The GoPro gets bounced around by the wind. My friend and i share a Contour (had a GoPro early model). Hoping this one is better. Seems like it's easier to use also. Waits killing me. PAD i thought about the skully but i'm on the fence with seeing things inside my helmet. I have a small head so helmets that fit right are hard to find. Plus i lve my Ruby and Diesel helmets. With the fusar i can still wear them. Having the displays inside the helmet might be distracting.

How much did you buy Session for? I don't think $200 is a bit pricy. It used to be at $400... too much..

You gave me idea.

Why not mount a taser to ones helmet?

For the times when driving defensively makes no sense.

What makes you think that? Razz emoticon
The shirts did shrink. Though, I washed them in cold and placed them into the dryer. The long sleeve shirt out of good cotton that looked like a 2-3XL ... shrunk to XL. The short sleeve, light cotton one that looked like 1XL ... shrunk to L.

You may want to place them out on the Freebie thread if you don't wear them around the house lounging.

I've found i can shrink just about anything. It's to warm to wear a long sleeve. That said it's been in the mid 60's at nite this past week. I'm toughing it out. Laughing emoticon Black absorbs the sun and makes it feel hotter than it usually is. Everyone should have this problem.

Have you lived in Hawaii all of your life? Don't you miss the 4 seasons? I was born and raised in So Cal but I've lived in many places due to being in the Military. I love the sun but fall and spring in other places I'd just beautiful.

A no. Grew up in rural NY near the MA border. Took a 1yr assignment here on Oahu back in '87. Stayed for another year. Came back for a year '94 (i think) and then moved here permanently in Dec '99. I do miss the leaves changing but i don't miss winter. Plus i love the Aloha spirit over here. I travel off island at least once a year.

I've been to Hawaii twice and vacation and i loved it but I love traveling and the hustle and bustle of large cities too much. When in update did you live? I lived and loved Saratoga Springs.

I prefer a howitzer, myself. More environmentally friendly as the spent shells can be used as planters.

TROUT ,cool. Reminds me of the time i was renting a room in this huge colonial over in Stephentown. The guys mom owned the 13 bedroom house and he new the set designer on the movie "You've got mail". Filmed in NYC but in the movie they had fall and it wasn't fall. They paid us $1000 ti find leaves to put on bare trees, so they could pretend it was autumn. If you watch the movie there's a scene where their walking down a street with trees and all the leaves are glued on.
