Awesome videos! One day I will make it there. Been dreaming about it far too long now.

Thanks for sharing.

Exquisite! How do you get the video so stable? Just have steady hands?

Awesome videos - thanks for sharing.

I hope to make it there one day, but will need a ton more training before I could attempt these dives.
