Looping with the Contour ROAM

thomasr — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 11:35:30 +0000

I’ve been using the aweome range of cameras from Contour * and lately I have been using the ROAM instead of its brothers the PLUS and GPS as they require a waterproof housing whereas the ROAM is suitable for windsurfing action out of the box sans case. Phenomenal.

* these cameras were provided free of charge. No payment has been received by me at any time.

I’m in NZ this week following the Targa NZ event Tweeting, Facebooking and videoing all that happens.

This footage however, blew me away. Wait for it!

Contour + Camera in use!

Recently I received the new Contour+ camera to try with a few different work projects and the results have been astounding. The video (link below) is of Cody Crocker exploring the new course at Calder Park- it simultaneously shows the video and the GPS track- speed and elevation included. Very impressive!
See the videos here.

Drift time with Harry a video by thomasrdotorg on Flickr.

Harry started doing slides without any instruction. He now knows it’s called “Drifitng” and does it non stop. Werd!

I’m supporting Elmo Keep’s crowd funded project to go on a cruise with KISS (Don’t ask) and she’ll write the story.

Sounds awesome!

(Halfway) Round Oz 2005- recut for 2011!

thomasr — Sat, 16 Jul 2011 04:34:21 +0000

Some 6 years after we took our round Australia trip comes the recut video- and now on Youtube- where files over 15 minutes are now admitted!

Major changes are few- removed some of my more boring to camera pieces and added the Google Earth data per a request from my late Godfather Greg Armstrong who noted it was confusing.

Enjoy!

HRT TV Townsville wrap up

thomasr — Sun, 10 Jul 2011 23:23:22 +0000

Aside from the awesome victory the team enjoyed thanks to some collective hard work, the highlight for me this weekend gone was meeting the family and friends of the late Daniel Morris.
Daniel was a local lad who was killed in an industrial accident back in March. Mad keen HRT fan, he’d met GT in ’09 and asked the 2007 V8 Supercar champion to sign his car’s air intake.
I was asked to create a tribute video and decided it would work best as a bookend to our weekend.
Here it is- it’s the last few minutes.

Interview with the late Paul McMenamin

thomasr — Wed, 06 Jul 2011 05:51:49 +0000

Gentleman racer, gentle soul and all round nice guy Paul McMenamin was interviewed by good mate Dieter Kahsnitz at one of my media training workshops in February 2010.

Last Saturday morning, Paul was killed after a race crash at Eastern Creek.

I decided to publish this practice interview with Paul as Dieter took a few tangents and I think we get some insightful moments.

Race in Peace Paul.
