Rip Curl’s Third Eye Goggle Camera
This is one of the coolest inventions to hit winter sports in a long time. Simply put, this little gizmo allows you to film your exploits unfettered. So whether it’s mid air spins or your first time on skis - you can capture it with Third Eye.
Rip Curl who make this product say:
“THIRD EYE is a goggle equipped with a minicam that plugs into the analogue input of a camcorder, thus providing you with an “onboard” video camera. As the camcorder itself merely records the images sent to it by the THIRD EYE, it can stay safe in the bottom of your backpack.”

• Screen with spherical geometry for panoramic viewing.
