Using the base that the camera shipped with, and two extra long retractors. In addition, I purchased the additional parts kit, as it had a long necked mount which I used to mount the camera to the shipping base. Got tired of dragging the camera around on a 6 foot pole.. newgopro.jpgnewgopro2.jpgnewgopro3.jpg
The retractors wrap around my chest and clip together in back of me. I am hoping that the tension on the retractor bands will help to keep the camera stable.
 
Nice one, id be interested to see how the video looks. I do have a gopro chesty harness which I haven't used underwater yet which I've always meant to have a go with just never manage to get around to it.

I did once mount a gopro to the back of my tank, I had it hooked around the tank strap with the vented helmet mount and a tether just in case. It was a pretty cool angle until just after dropping to the bottom someone bumped into me and knocked the angle down so all I got was a 40 minute close up look at my tank lol. I think I will use this sort of angle next time I do a shark dive to get a look at the ones looking at me that I cant see :D
 
Yes. I should be testing it in the morning. Will post results to Youtube.
