Good vid, nice pov's. Been experimenting with mounting my GF1 on a bracket bolted to the bottle mounts and looks interesting.
To improve further, I'd suggest aiming for continuity (ie same trail), but still with different povs. Will obviously require riding the section more than once. I'd also try putting in some sections shot on a stationary camera - again changing the pov (low down, behind a jump, panning etc) and that way build up more of a "story" behind the riding.
Do a search on youtube for Surrey Hills and a video by 5spotty for my latest efforts of cutting together some of the jumps in the area, although apparently Sony's licensing meant my choice of soundtrack was rejected!

But there are more interesting trails than those tourist ones. If you fancy, I have GoPro HD too. 2cameras better than one +could ride some aggresive XC too.

'The Reservoir Trail' is not reservoir dogs

I think you should tilt the chest view up a few degrees so we can see ahead a little more. Nice fast looking trail. Interesting watching the fork work too.

There are loads of other trails

That trail was always called just 'The Reservoir Trail' until Barry showed up.

In which case, the "Barry" that you mention has nothing to do with "Barry Knows Best", presumably.

Popstar - Yes, 2 cams would be better than one. Certainly cut down on repeated riding of trails (although thats never too bad a thing with a good trail). I know there are tons of other trails, by many different names. I've been riding many of them for years. This just happened to be the ones that worked best (camera wise) the other day. Having said that, theres always fun new stuff to find up there at the moment. It's a busy place, but that does mean constantly evolving trails.
Buzzlightyear - I know. I have done in the past. I failed on that one this time. Hence only a brief bit of chest cam stuff.
Does anyone know who Barry was? It was called The Reservoir Trail when it was first built. Then seemed to evolve into Golden Birdies and then Barry Knows best. I'm not sure Barry knows much about where that trail came from.

Ti29er - I bought an HD Helmet Hero and then an additional bar/seatpost mount (big enough to go round my seat tube and down tube on a steel frame), as well as a chest mount harness thingy. For any frame with fatter tubes, you could get a roll cage mount or modify the bar mount a bit.
