OORAH America...and the GoPro

Hello fellow Bros, and Happy Independence Day! First and foremost, remember to pay your respects with your prayers, good thoughts, and kind words for all of the men and women fighting the good fight overseas. Past and present. They sacrifice everything for our freedom, and I thank God for their willingness to do so. Thank our fathers and brothers who keep the streets safe (Corcoran Jr/Sr), our mothers and sisters who work long shifts at the hospitals (Baldwin), and our cousins at West Point striving for perfection to become future leaders. We all play an important role for this great Nation of ours.



Now on to the next topic. The GoPro. I figured I would give you guys my thoughts of the purchase I recently made of the GoPro. You could call it my "Gear Review". Today I broke my GoPro's cherry. I didn't take it easy on her either. Today she (GoPro) got a pretty good beating. She took a high impact hit, went in the ocean, flew around, and experienced the rotor wash (high winds). The video quality was also better than I expected. Real crisp videos and good audio from what I can tell. What I didn't like...Well after watching this video a few times I realized the water spots seemed to stick to the camera lens. I'm thinking Rain-X might be the key here. Second, when the camera is mounted to your helmet its impossible to know if your recording or not because you can't look at the screen. These are real minor problems and I'm sure I'll figure out a routine to get the recording process better. Overall, I am very satisfied and can't wait to use it more. I'd recommend it to all bro's!
