Ever wonder what a disc sees on its way to the basket? We decided to find out. A co-worker and I put this together after figuring out how to mount a camera to a disc.

Wow that's awesome! How did you mount the camera?
Interesting idea. I'd like to see a pic of the set-up mounted on the disc. As for the video, I'm not sure if I want to vomit or have a seizure. Cool none the less.
Wow. How did you get it to shoot forward?

Awesome vid Tim, you HAVE to strap that thing on top of a putter!
My co-worker designed a special mount just for the disc with a bearing in it, took some trial and error. The camera is pretty durable. I went through 3 discs and the camera held up. After hitting enough trees the disc's flight just became to wobbly to produce a decent picture.
I did almost get an ace with the camera but the footage was kinda crappy so I didn't include it. I hit the side of the basket... would have been awesome

Nice but messed with the eyes a bit.
I saw one a few months back where I believe it was Brodie Smith attached a camera to one of the discs they used in their ultimate practice some day. These definitely make for cool videos.

Great idea but I was waiting for some to hit chains and more hitting trees.
There were many trees hit in the making of the video

You should have put them in the video!
Maybe I can do an outtakes video
