5.11 Tactical Pants and Shirt Review

5.11 Tactical Pants and Shirt

I recently received the opportunity to review a pair of Stryke Pant w/ Flex-Tac and Long Sleeve Tactical Shirt Cotton from a company named 5.11 Tactical.

Now, you may think that this type of clothing is only for military/law enforcement personal but I can tell you that its functionality extends into the realm of any outdoor activity. I have utilized this style of pants in the past in combat zones and have found them to be excellent in function and look. Here is a YouTube video from 5.11 showing the pants in action:

Rotor GoPro

You can get some amazing footage with your GoPro HD camera using the RotoR rotating helmet pole.

It's an interesting rotor - 360 degrees swivel mount - that enables you to capture video of yourself from different angles. All this while you're dong your thing - mountain biking, skiing or whatever.

To make it work you'll need (sounds like a recipe doesn't it?):
  • Two GoPro cameras to balance the pole - team up with a friend I'd say 
  • A curved sticky mount on your helmet
  • A quick release sliding buckle 
  • Two handlebar mounts
