Experiment No. 3 - Scrap Surf. JVC GC-XA1 ADIXXION. Drift HD. ContourROAM 2. Sony's new Action Cam rugged cameras go straight for GoPro's bread and butter. GoPro is the name everyone thinks of when it comes to small rugged cameras that can be mounted virtually anywhere, but now Sony is aiming to grab a piece of that pie. The new Action Cam HDR-AS10 and Wi-Fi-equipped HDR-AS15, announced today, can shoot full 1080p HD video and 16-megapixel stills in nearly any weather condition. Both cameras weigh about three ounces and feature ultra-wide angle Carl Zeiss lenses that can capture a 170-degree field of view and have Sony's SteadyShot image stabilization system. Sony claims that the camera's Exmor R CMOS sensor offers "stunning low light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically reduced grain," though we will have to see how that stacks up in real-world use.

The Action Cam has five different video modes, including 60p and 120p slow-motion modes (at 720p resolution), as well as Interval Still Recording modes for time-lapse photography.

I'm building a 6'4'' Hollow Core Cardboard Fish | Swaylock's Surfboard Design Forum. I've been working on a 6'4'' Fish, made from router cuts in cardboard that Mike Sheldrake, the inventor of this board design creates in his garage. This board is unique in the way its designed, its core materials, and that it is being built in the Marshall Islands. Ive had the board kit for over 3 months, waiting on supplies. Now that they are here I have spent a few solid days getting it to the glassing stage.

A few pictures to show where its headed. Im not the first person to built this board kit. There is a back story to my kit. I began deciding on the supplies I'd need to build this thing. Sheldrake has explained that these kits are very durable, light weight and can be experimented on. To Mr. To put a spin on the build process I will attempt deliver a build that is very transluscent with the use of glass.

Here's the pics of my build up. ...and if you're doing a cardboard build, post pics here if you like....
