Looks like a ton of fun!

I am going to ASSume that the video was filmed with a gopro? If so, does it float? Did you have to add anything on to it to get it to float?

Thanks!

Yes it was filmed on a gopro3 (1st gen not the +). I mounted it to a chesty (oem harness). The camera and case float because I added the optional foam floater to the case door, I'm not sure about the harness but am not concerned about it either since that is not likely to slip off. I did verify that it and the head strap float but haven't actually used that config on the water yet. If I want to head mount it on the water I would probably use a bike helmet instead of the head strap.
