From ‘A Day in the Life’ with The Head Cam

Some time ago we started playing with the Head Cam. It did not start well as the wind chill was subzero and ate the battery life so quickly that it was dead before the starting signal fell.

Having worked out that with the batteries left hanging in a bag on the changing room radiator till the last moment before launching we could get 40 minutes before battery death; the front-end girl lasted 20 minutes longer.

It has come to pass that we have a shed load of pixels, mostly very boring but there are some fun bits, and hopefully we can edit out the embarrassing bits and make L’s gybes look brill and share them out.

This clip shows Lorna and Jacko recovering from a rubbish start as leading boat, Dean and Rob ‘Hornet’ coming up to round race mark Jetty, sadly losing out to Lorna’s wicked handling of the kite on this tight three sailed reach to race mark 4.

Q&A Lorna and Jacko did take the bullet in this race. Yes, Jacko is always as considerate and helpful whilst racing. Yes, Jacko was fully strapped out with Lorna on this reach. No, the cam shot makes it look like the boats on its ear hole, but actually it’s dead flat. “Flashing” refers to the head cam ‘on light’ and nothing to do with Jacko’s personal life. Lorna said, “eat my shorts” and is a result of string friction and pleasure.
