Beast POV with new brakes

http://65.169.104.39/beast.mov

Its a large file so it might take a while if you have a slow connection. Thanks to Jeff for putting up with my 1000000 stupid questions. Anyway I shot this yesterday.

I still think its a great ride.

Indeed it is big! It took me about 3 hours or more to download it! But now it is saved for me to have fun with. It may have been big, but the picture and quality is great!

3 hours! It was only an hour from when I posted this thread until you responded.

What a beautiful camera. I seriously want one.

In other news....gosh, seeing the Beast this way is so weird. Its like a member of my family that I've known for 13 years got a complete make over.

-----------------
If the shoe fits, find another one.

I'm always willing to wait for quality this good. Good job Dan

Excellent video, Dan. Unfortunatly I haven't had a chance to ride the Beast before or after the modifications. Maybe this is a sign for me to join the CB club and head out to PKI.

I'm a little confused. For example: The drop off the second lift. I clearly see the brakes towards the beginning of the drop....but what are the smaller things towards the bottom of the drop and in the uncovered portion of the helix? Prox sensors? They are small and several occurr in a row. Thanks in advance.

Beast Boy,

Its your job to make sure that doesn't happen, if you want to be mad at somebody be mad at your crew for not doing their job.

Or hey, maybe Dan got permission, ya never know until you ask.

Taking pictures while riding is against the park policy
You could have hurt someone
You could have lost your camera
You know when the discovery channel came to beast last year their cameras were bolted on to the ride with huge steel beams across them and yet they were only the size of a camcorder. You had your hand......

People never stop to think that. All the on-ride photos on my site have been taken with permission! Just because an on ride photo is taken doesn't mean it's against the rules!

Heck, I take onride pictures of all rides and I've never gotten yelled at. I make sure that my camera is well-attached to me before I go on the ride (I certainly don't want to lose my $500+ investment)

I'm still DLing (I just started) but I would love to take my XL1 on coasters. Unfortunately, its not a hidable size.

I can't get it to work either.
