Very nice; but I have to say when I read the title of the thread I thought it meant something like it is your last time going out. Man thats like saying you have terminal cancer or ebola.

Glad to see your at it and love the video.

Oh, I can see how you might read it like that. Sorry for any confusion, just meant that it was my most recent trip. Glad you enjoyed!

thats some nice material youre running. next time, put the camera on your right mask strap, it will stop a lot of the shakiness and still show what your looking at. I use a low profile midland camera to record mine. its basically in the same place as my commercial camera I use on my helmets

I used an mask mounted camera in the past but it was REALLY bad for exhaust bubbles and their noise. I just need to find a mount that fits my 4" hose!

Well thankyou for my morning fix !! I enjoyed your video! Just a suggestion : add a flusher hose to your setup and itll help a bunch!! Im assuming your down stream from BV possible to Salida??

I have one of those, but the material here is so loose that I haven't had a need for it. Everything just falls down to you. This is way, WAAAY upstream from BV.
