Glidecam's

[LamSobinsky]

I just would like to know what are your guys's thoughts on glidecam's

I never really see too many people in the ski community using them. Ask Ben_collins. I'm sure he'll be next to reply to this thread

I'd put this in the Media and Arts forum, but i find that filming with a glide cam is easier and the shot turns out less shaky and shitty

I'm curious what your thoughts are on apostrophes.

Don't know how to use them just trying to look smart

I think they're awesome. I am a filmer so I rely on them to get the shot for skiing. It takes a real learning curve but after a while you learn how to do it. 4bi9 has been using them for forever and they are very good at using them

Also two things

1) this should be in media and arts

2) search bar

Step 1: Buy VX1000 with a fisheye lens.

Step 2: Paint it yellow and green.

Step 3: Film at low angles.

Step 3: Shout "chicken bone nowison" every time you get a homie's trick on film.

Step 4: Get a nickname, preferably your nickname should be a dog breed.

Congrats, now you have the best footage possible, no glidecam needed.

Glidecam seems to be #1 when it comes to non-electronic manual stabilization. The reason they are great for skiing is because nothing is electronic and it doesn't require a battery. This is really important when you are skiing because batteries don't last at all in the cold.There is a bit of a learning curve to using a Glidecam but once you get used to it you can produce some fairly great shots.
