Video: Helmetcam and a Queen Palm

[Ekka]

Just a short close up of what it's like up there.

The groundies will love it when you rope the berries down.

You'll see how stringy things hang on and how close you are cutting to your ropes so firm grip, high revs and give it some.

Only a snippet of 1min and 5mb

Keep up the good work.

Well, being an unsophisticated colonial on a remote island I gaffa taped the camera to my helmet! And yeah, it was bloody heavy!! I have a pic somewhere but you'll have to wait.

LOL That was my first guess, then i thought ekka being the rather sophisticated video guy, you may have got all technical on us an put the video in a backpack witha pencilcam type thing mounted to your helmet.
on!

What a mess.
I used to trim palms on the coast I could do 60 40 footers a day.Husky141
