Thanks BigR, I spoke to the reporter late on Monday and wasn't sure if anything would show up in the article. He did an nice overview in the piece. It really is an amazing camera for the size and price. I started communicating with one of the key guys at GoPro in 2009. I was intrigued with the underwater possibilities for the camera, then the WIDE model before the HD and corrected port optics. I had no idea they had fewer than seven people at the time. They have been doing some growing!
The article shows up at: GoPro Hero 2 ready to capture extreme sports .

Just starting to look over the stuff from South Beach last night. I launched about three miles north and blasted down offshore fast to catch the sunset off SoBE near Government Cut. Here are a few shot via the current GoPro HD mounted on my kite and helmet around sunset. The 2012 Switchblade performed spot on, sailing close to the wind and off the wind well. The larger size helped in the lulls and powering upwind too.
More to come!

Some more shots from the South Beach session, this time with normal processing. Again, these photos were taken with the current GoPro HD camera. My HD2 is in transit. I wasn't able to do much with some of what should have been the most incredible shots later in the sunset. Things were too dark and there was camera motion, it is on a kite after all. The new camera is supposed to have enhanced low light capabilities in addition to double the resolution. Wish I had it for this session.
