If your link and computer can handle it, click on the video itself to go to YouTube directly, then click "Watch in HD". Yeah, YouTube can actually deliver good-looking video :)

Two questions:

What was the shiny thing on top of your helmet, and what was up with that landing? You were like zooming along the ground in a fashion that looked way way too fast, and then all of a sudden you're just strolling along. It was weird.

That thing is a helmet-mount camera! I have one video taken with that last week here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_grWMppkkb0 - but the exposure is a little crappy. I have a few more taken yesterday, with the camera pointed more downwards, and they came out much better! I'll get those up on-line tonight, methinks ( ... )

Oh, a clarification: It's about 25mph airspeed, and there was a roughly 5 mph headwind on that day, so it's about 20mph.
