Good but much better with the sound off......... unless you like Euro electronic disco music from the 80's.
It takes a quiver to do that.

Really great perspective, thanks!  Jaws is so hollow at size.

How do you think he deals with the balloon?  Deflates and gets another
compressed air canister from a ski?

The newer vests, like Jeff Clark's shown (and I think Patagonia's), have 2 CO2 inflatable charges and a manual/blow air pump as well as a pressure release.

This allows the user to blow the chamber 2X (twice) in an emergency, and deflate between without needing any additional hardware.

Those shots were beautiful... great color and clarity.

He looks pretty comfortable for so far back in the tube.

His GoPro mounts survive JAWs beatings.... not bad :D
