Well there seems to be an influx of people (noobs) getting go pro's...

And additionally they lose them in the water...

So I guess that it evens out in the long run.. I don't watch the gopro footage but I know it is widespread. It's all about choices really. Nobody is forcing you to click the play button.

Could be worse. We could be on the Goldy where the wind sucks most of the time.

They must put subliminal messages on the tv - newspapers - radio and forums forcing people to keep reading/watching.

If you don't like it or it upsets you to keep watching/reading hit the X at the top right of your screen or PUT the paper down and go do whatever makes you happy.

No matter how crappy something is Seabreeze rules.

I think its time to make a Video tutorial. Tips and Tricks for how to make a good video. The reality is, most video shot on a go pro is crap and boring but people dont think about what they might like to watch of themselves versus what the public will want to watch.

Essentially i think videos need to be a at a very High level of quality and ride quality to be enjoyed. This takes things like steadicams, dollies and cranes. Also takes good editing. Most people dont have these skills.

I work at the ABC as an editor and Im still learning lots about how to shoot sports etc.

Imo, most people shouldnt bother posting their videos. even the best rider can bore the world with bad cinematography and editing.

Im from the NT so im allowed to whinge.

Some go pro footage is good when it is mixed with other footage of the kiter. I like seeing footage of a kiter smashing up a wave down the line and then seeing the perspective that the rider gets of it, but not all go pro footage.

I like your sentiments Boofy. But the howling noreasters have been few and far between this season.
