Neck Cam!!!!

I was experimenting with the video camera and one of those "gorilla grip" camera mounts - check this out...

Wicked fun but the camera definitely needs more shock mounting, the low B caused it some real pain

awesome! nice playing too.

for some reason i feel as if the camera should be moved 90 degrees CCW though maybe?

Great playing, I think you could get a better slap tone if you brought your thumb round so it was pointing upwards instead of diagonally down, and also modified your wrist action a bit. I used to play exactly like you do until about a month or so ago my tutor showed me how to do it this way, and the difference in feel and tone is pretty big.

Funny you should say that, I've been modifying my style exactly that way recently, having seen some footage of double thumbing and realising that I could do with some work in this area...
