You’ve probably heard or read everywhere how good is the POV.1,
Wirelessly remote controlled, waterproof, shockproof, DVD quality …
Here is a few ideas how to use your POV.1 while Skiing, MTBiking or on a trackday ! Can be used in much more other situation, so if you have some good and new POV.1 footage feel free to send us some raw footage an we’ll edit an other demo video of the POV.1.
We’d like to thanks David Tan for these nice Catherham footage.

Check the POV.1 review.
The good: This is a revolutionary camera system allows affordable professional filming while coming in a small pack and has everything that you need to get going. The wireless remote and software package included is new to the market. This kit is all good!
The bad: The memory can only be extended to 2Gbs max.
The Action Cameras bottom line: This is the greatest camera to hit the market and the price shows the quality of it, which is fair because of the value that is received in the quality of the POV.1
Another interesting story we found when looking through the action camera sales …
As the summer competition season draws nearer more and more riders are turning to helmet mounted cameras to record training at home and away. ActionCameras.co.uk have noticed a 190% increase in sales to riders from this time last year. They believe it’s in the anticipation of good weather for the competition season as more and more people compete on the local and regional circuit.
From the rider’s point of view it enables them to analyse their approach when riding cross-country or show jumping, and record outings as a reference for future competitions to improve on previous outings.
Riders need a camera to be shock resistant, waterproof and lightweight as well as being able to capture quality footage. The VIO POV1 fits the bill for all riders and retails at £549.99 from online retailer ActionCameras.co.uk.
Sab Jhooti of Actioncameras.co.uk said; “The increasing competition for riders leads many to look for any advantage they can get. Our cameras, especially the POV1, enable riders to analyse their riding from the comfort of their own home and clearly see where they can improve.”
The helmet-mounted cameras are easy and safe to wear, and come with a multitude of fittings. They can record up to several hours with sound and connect to PCs and Macs via a USB cable.
It’s been a fine start to the year for actioncameras and, with plently of UK based skiers looking to get helmet cam footage of their fun in some European powder, the POV1 has found some true fans.
It’s no suprise it’s been a bestseller this month - the people who are buying it are after something that is really tough, produces very good quality of footage (close to DVD) and is really simple to use. Its got a wireless remote control function which is really handy to start and stop recording and is something unique to this camera.
This camera was originally designed for the US Special Forces but due to its rugged design and high quality it is very popular within the action sports market.
If you’re using one and have some great skiing footage please leave a message here and we’ll show it to the world!
