The sun came out for a few weeks! :) Raining is coming again this week, but we already have another video filmed, so it can't stop us this week! HA! :)
Great to see you guys out and about on your recumbents.love your new drone"selfie stick 500" l have that same drone I can't 7:30 hold it as steady as you though ! Very nice scenic ride thanks for sharing 💫
That actually worked incredibly well! Superior viewing compared to a chest-high video! Wish a non-held high camera could be rigidly mounted with integrated handgrip twist and vertical articulation from same hand grip. Would be something fun to make, lol, but seemingly(?) ought to be already available.
Awesome video. I have insta 360 on the standard length. I also mount a skeleton mount behind my head head. I am finding the more that a user extends. It’s heavy . My Ace Pro of the Insta models is just as heavy. I have been using my action cameras a necklace mount. I traveled this way using my action camecameras in 🇵🇪. An interesting POV. You got thinking on the stick height since the trails shares with the horses which a scary POV on 3 wheels . Thanks guys!
Oh, yeah! Horses are freaked by trikes already. Add a long pole and you're really in trouble. I don't think I would've ridden past a horse with this pole extended. Those insta 360's are really nice!
Hope to see you out there one day! There is a hotel in Folsom, right on the trail, so if you ever wanted to make a multi-day trip of it, you would be able to stay next to the trail and go one way one day and the other the next. :)
@@bikestrikesrazors cool, thanks for sharing. Isn’t there an In & Out Burger off the trail or was it the burrito place? I can’t remember which video you did with those two places.
The In &Out is a few miles off the trail in Gold River. There is a McDonalds right off the trail and a few supermarkets, so plenty of places to stop and eat. :)@@Olyphoto7
Great video and very ingenious method of videography. Btw…. I just emailed pix of the penny farthing rider I encountered on Cape Cod. It took me a while to find it. Also sent two short videos and a few pix of two Velo riders I joined up with in south Florida.
The only time we mount a camera is on a road bike handlebar on a long downhill. Most of the time, we just hand hold it, so it can be moved around to get some interesting shots. The camera we're using for this video is the first generation DJI OSMO action. The image quality is great, but we do have problems with the audio sometimes (weird clicks).
@@bikestrikesrazors lol! No scarier than driving a trike around cars ;) I strap the camera to my pfd. Don’t want to think what it would take to have the pfd come off me.
Interesting, for that effect - I like it, but you definitely need a partner to be a subject. A different effect may be achieved with a camera/software that makes the selfie-stick invisible.
It's a beautiful video and I'm very jealous of your ride - but I have to wonder why you don't just use an actual drone? They WILL follow and circle around you, and your arm won't get tired, either. You only need about 12 minutes of actual footage for the final video, so a drone with a couple of batteries would be more than sufficient to capture plenty of footage, and no need to hold anything while riding.
Hey, John! We'll probably pick up a drone in the near future but so far it's been something we haven't messed with. I'm thinking now that this "long stick" type shot would be a nice addition when a drone wouldn't be possible as when riding through the trees and such. But you're certainly correct- A drone would sure save wear and tear on my arm! Thanks for watching!
I tried something like this on a much shorter pole years ago... I think you pulled off the "drone shot" more convincingly though. th-cam.com/video/IfKlzRvHTz4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=UjHUsZA8UCPG6pxT&t=348
Thank you for taking us for the ride experience. I could have sworn it was a drone shot. Excellent long stick camera shot.
Thanks for watching! I thought the weight of the camera might be a problem when extended out that far, but it wasn't too bad.
I like those white wheels - haven't seen them before. Assuming the 'stick' is hand-held (as opposed to being mounted), the stabilization is amazing.
Hey, Randy! Yep, that’s the electronic image stabilization in the first gen Osmo Action camera. It is amazing! Thanks for watching!
Been missing you guys! Happy to have a new video!

Hey, Douglas! I was surprised at how well the camera's internal stabilization worked. I guarantee you I wasn't holding that long pole very steady! :)
Nice effect. Thanks.

There's probably something like that that the pro's use and costs $$$. :)
Looked great! probably cheaper than a drone too. ;-)
I think Joe picked up that pole second hand for $5.00, so much cheaper than a drone. :)

Well done 👍
Someday I hope to ride that trail, but we’re far from ready for a long distance trip with our trikes.

Cool! I'll check it out right now!
You guys sure capture the joy of riding. How tired did your arms get holding that long "stick"?
Ha! My arm started to go south on some of the long shots. :) I guess it's a good way to work in some upper body training. :)
@@bikestrikesrazors Isometric holds are being used again as finishing movements. They are done at the end of sets...HA
There you go! :)@@evanking920
What’s your typical camera setup? Would love to see a video showing where you like mounting on your trikes/bikes.
The only time we mount a camera is on a road bike handlebar on a long downhill. Most of the time, we just hand hold it, so it can be moved around to get some interesting shots. The camera we're using for this video is the first generation DJI OSMO action. The image quality is great, but we do have problems with the audio sometimes (weird clicks).
@@bikestrikesrazors wow! I’m still experimenting between my trike and kayak with how to mount my AKASO.
A kayak is scary! Don't want to lose the camera in the water!@@msdew5631
@@bikestrikesrazors lol! No scarier than driving a trike around cars ;) I strap the camera to my pfd. Don’t want to think what it would take to have the pfd come off me.
Yep, if your pfd comes off, you've got bigger problems! :)@@msdew5631
The faux drone effect is enhanced by today’s more stable video quality, much more advanced since my last GoPro.
Yes, the internal stabilization is pretty amazing.
@@bikestrikesrazors what’s the equipment?
@@palmvictory It's a first-generation OSMO Action camera.

Yes, that is an ingenious piece of engineering!

Hey Glen! The big problem we had was the long shadow from the pole was in getting in many of the shots and ruining the effect. :)
