Hiding GoPro's in our Hockey Helmets?

I tried to modify my hockey helmets before, but didn't come up with a design I liked. I thought with my new heat gun I could give it another shot. What do you guys think of the mod, is it smart? Too dangerous? Let us know in the comments.

Which one looks better on the helmet? What angle is the best? Do you have a better idea? Let me know!

[@Smeble68]

I don’t know but keep up all the great work on your videos your doing awesome

[@RyanLombergini]

Nice

Hello

@@lytral697 got that right 🤦🏻‍♂️ smh

[@MicBergsma]

Not bad mod!! I like it! Looking good on Jeremy’s helmet… on my ccm helmet I didn’t mount on helmet I hate having GoPro sticking out so high and getting too much attention so I strap GoPro on bottom of ccm FV1 face shield so it’s more like bite mount. I love it! I should make a video about it to share

[@RyanLombergini]

Hello ;D

[@CoachJeremy]

I thought about that as an option as well, it’s probably the best way to go, but a bit lower view point.

[@tristanfenton788]

I would suggest also using some Velcro and foam padding to fit it in better and to have it shake less and so theres no go pro scratches. Not trying to criticize I love your videos they are really cool but just some suggestions

[@linusbaumgartel1918]

I think Jeremy's version is really great. The only that threw me off a bit was that it looked a bit tilted to the right. Except that it is really nice. A few years ago there was a company producing a small actioncamera for ice hockey helmets called the UHWK.

[@scuderio762]

The angle on Jeremys helmet cam is really nice, even though the helmet looks a bit messy :)

[@blake3474]

I actually do have a way to improve the setup. Get a normal gopro headstrap attachment and put the helmet on over it with the cut out. Bam! Now you can adjust anyway you like and it'll be on nice and stable

[@tenringer]

I love the beer league videos you used to post, hopefully this is a sign that they're coming back soon?

[@HadenHiles]

Hockey in our area is just starting up again within the next month.. so soon 🙌🏼

[@owenator]

Both setups were pretty good. I think it was pretty much even.

[@AmherstFamBand]

Love your videos I've been watching you for like 5 years love you so much!!

[@topefpv]

I am designing a 3D print mount for gopro on hockey helmet with a Flexible fillament so it would absorb the hits etc. Will see how it goes. It's going to be custom, so it would blend and be as close to helmet, but each manufacturer probably will need some adjusments. I was planning to make a hole as well, but understood it's dangerous as hell.

[@johnsmall9077]

Did you end up doing this ?

[@annrose8890]

Jeremy’s film was easier to watch. Got a headache watching Hayden’s film. But… safety of Hayden’s helmet was what made me think I would wear the Hayden GoPro helmet .

[@Machtyn]

I think there were two problems with his setup. 1) He didn't give the tape/glue long enough time to set. The camera wasn't tightened on the hinge enough (shaky-cam!)

[@ZombieHitman63]

Combination of both designs but use a fiberglass shell that connects to the top of the helmet. It'll hold better and look more streamlined.

[@BenchSandwich]

My set-up is like Haden's and it has been knocked off once or twice by accident, but I don't bring it out to league games, just pick-up hockey. If Gopro teamed up with someone to make a helmet though I'd definitely consider buying one.

[@41GoingOn14]

Oscillating tool with a punch cut blade would accurately cut the plastic to desired size. Then secure with the 3m double sided tape in the new “cradle” cut out.

[@kinkykylie7210]

Isn’t there a camera ment for helmets?

[@trinitycheechoo9123]

Any tips for my ODR And when should I start working on it?.

[@franknbeans7745]

Are used to work at 5:11 the knife you used on the screen was part of the bug out series

[@shniest]

I purchased a UHWK for this purpose. Too bad as I’m not sure they still sell them but maybe you can find one. Check out their KZbin here kzbin.info

[@adamdevries8121]

Great video,,can you let me know in camera settings for your go pro? your getting some great results for the gopro in the rink..

[@farnamsafarzadeh3396]

Hey, great vid!, where did you go to play free hockey?

[@RyanLombergini]

Love your channel

[@bozoplayz5815]

Time to start watching you know cause its almost hockey season!

[@PheonixCHT]

you should try 3d printing a mount that can attach to the holes on the front

[@HadenHiles]

Buy ✅ 3D ✅ Printer ✅ 🤣

[@alderelitewoodworks2676]

What if you had cut piece of scrap wood (of course by using your brothers guard-less and dangerous saw) to close dimensions of the go pro and just had jammed that thing in?

[@CoachJeremy]

He’s going to love this comment 😂

[@NerdrageHockey]

2:10 It's pointing up so you would see the ceiling, I don't watch enough of your videos, it would be perfect :D. Then I could also use it as an excuse as to why I keep my head down.

[@Fishingwithandrew28]

what did you have the gopro setting at when at the ice area and filming

[@ernsteklund]

I suggest using one of the mini spycams which doesn’t have huge housings. OR disassemble the GoPro, so you can distribute the electronics along the inside of the helmets hollow sides. I did this and it works great. Even made one for my goalie helmet. For example, Amazon has those mini hidden cameras with 4K resolution, with a tiny camera on a 6 inch cord to the recording unit. Great content Coach!

[@CoachJeremy]

This is next level!

[@muggedbyamoos]

The "UHWK Helmet Action Camera" would have been a simpler fix but I like your solution as a fun project. Nothing is more fun than tinkering with stuff like this. Nice job!

[@CoachJeremy]

I’ve used them before but they’re not even close to video quality of a GoPro, and also have weird glitches where they won’t record anything which is frustrating

[@Wannaridebikes]

I’ve seen it done by sticking j mount on front. But why not the little white cam. Out I forgot the name.

[@Machtyn]

I think you are correct, GoPro, CCM, or somebody needs to design a safe helmet with a quality action camera in it. There are already a LOT of people recording their games, practices, etc. In my area (there's only one ice hockey rink for an entire city / region), we have referees and players who use the strong sticky tape, and it works well. I really enjoy the channel, "Head Down Hockey". So, yeah, the strong sticky tape will work (give it time to set). But it would be better for the helmet mfg's to make a quality safe helmet.

[@Wannaridebikes]

Go cam 2 try it is small and pretty easy to mount. No big mount just stick it. Always heat up the 3m sticky foam it sticks way better.

[@mojobody1424]

Yo that is pretty sweet brotha . I’m trying to figure out what go pro to buy.

[@Benicius10]

Wouldnt customizing your helmet make its certification unvalid and use of helmet in games illegal?

[@emceelovin]

I probably would've just used a dremel or a mini reciprocating(saw-zal), but it would be sweet if helmets existed specifically for low-profile GoPro usages.

[@codymarkham1094]

Try headsetlow skydiving visor mount

[@Thumper1986]

Felt like I was getting motion sickness watching Hayden's. Jeremy's seemed much closer to how you actually see the ice while playing!

[@fishiecracker]

In the FPV drone community people will decase the GoPro to make it lighter. You might be able to decase it to make it fit your original cut out design better

[@Mrmhibbert]

Some Sugru on the underside of the camera will give you some protection. Also if you weren't removing battery you could put some on outer of camera to hold in place and the rubber of Sugru dries into shape

[@RobertSullivan1974]

Maybe try with a GoPro Session. Its smaller and might be easier to mount.

[@JesseOfficialSketch]

GoPro needs to make a camera designed for sports better. Similar to the UHWK camera. The uhwk was a perfect design but the camera needed a major upgrade. sadly they went out of business

[@21cup]

There's some other brands out there with smaller cameras that might work. Can't remember the name but there's a KZbinr called Francis Cade who uses them.

[@bossogg6915]

Get someone to 3d print an adjustable go pro holder that attaches to the visor screws. There must be someone who can design one. Or worst case scenario ask CCM to build one!

[@HadenHiles]

I thought about this as well! I just need to find a new friend who has a 3D printer 👀🤣

[@bossogg6915]

Just re-thought this comment, a 3D printed mount may be too fragile (if hit with a puck, some r&d would need to be done to test it) or too bulky (thickness = strength with printed plastic) however a thin piece of aircraft grade Aluminium plate bent into the right shape using the afore mentioned screws to attach it could be a better option.

[@rmm0vi14]

Nasher also tried that for his ice hockey vids

[@coyoteshockeyD3]

We use UWHK. Mount it on the forehead on the helmet. Unless you're REALLY looking, you don't really notice it

[@Melagrath_Ren]

I know it's less fun, but why not just use the UHWK Sports Player HD Camera

[@triciaburfordmactier5010]

I like the angle👍🏻

[@duckattak]

I use a UHWK since gopros aren’t allowed here on San Jose ice

[@idapro9847]

Don't like first person view, it couses dizziness. But maybe you should try to mount camera on your chest? Just for friendly games for sure.

[@lilsacapuntas4763]

Could make an easy low profile mould out of hot glue and use silicon or Velcro to keep the GoPro in. Could even just super glue the heck out of one of those transparent GoPro cases straight onto the helmet

[@21cup]

What about a stick mounted camera...one shot and it's gone i imagine haha but what a view it could be

[@811hlambert]

You need a heavy duty velcro strip in the helmet and on the bottom of the gopro

[@chaseram13]

Great idea live the content keep it up

[@JohnnyGodden33]

Ask nasher he played in a league wit it. Also was extremely stealth about it. Best part you are both in the ad I'm seeing lol

Nothing stealth about nashers it was the same as Hayden's exactly the same

[@drakorez]

My suggestion is to rough up the surface of the helmet and superglue the cam or a cam mount to the helmet. I would not wear a helmet with a hole in it. Be safe 🙏.

[@BHall51683]

Probably should have used a 6in hand hacksaw...without heating it up, or a dremel and a grind wheel...

[@CoachJeremy]

Dremel would work wonders, last time I just used a box cutter and that worked, but I wanted to play with my heat gun again

[@skateaddict20]

I bought a go pro specifically to put on my hockey helmet to record games and after two games they told me I couldn't wear it ☹️

[@goleafsgoleafsgo5656]

Look what Nasher does with the GoPro he puts on top of his Helmet

[@AnHourOfWolves]

Maybe get someone to 3D scan the helmet and 3D print a mount. Melting the helmet is never safe.
