Comments: Snowboard gift ideas

Along the helmet cam lines, you should check out the Philips key019. It's a mini USB flash drive that'll record ~25min of mpeg4 video, take 2mpixel stills or
play mp3s with included headphones. The quality won't be as good as top line camcorders but it's a lot cheaper and I'm looking at velcroing mine to my helmet.

If you have a bag that is hydration pack compatible you could get one of these to fit in the sleeve inside your pack.

I have one of the RF Concepts cameras and they work very well. Velcro to the side of your helmet and keep the camcorder in the rucksack. I got a wired remote to go with the camcorder which means I can keep the remote in my chest pocket and control everything from there.

In general this camera is much more subtle than my first attempt: http://www.lenholgate.com/archives/000224.html
