I want to mount my GoPro on the front of my helmet - quite low so I get as near to eyeline POV as possible. My Hex does not have enough 'stick area' for the mount in that position. I am thinking I need a new less airey helmet - darn it

Any recommendations ? Anyone got one mounted like this on an Urge Endur-o-Matic ??

Cheers

You should concentrate more on how the helmet fits your head than how it fits your camera.

Better still do not bother with the helmet and stick it to the forehead.

Why not on the chin guard of a full facer?

Thanks - worth considering (the full face - not the forehead !)

Have you seen much of the chest mounted footage?
Much better POV than on the helmet as you can see your bars/bike and the trail, not the "isolated from the trail" feel you get with helment POV, and no need to replace your helmet.

Agree, much better with the chest harness, with a helmet mount you could be running, skateboarding or flying along the trail
