ContourHD helmet cam now shipping for aggro dads everywhere

Some dads like grilling, some dads like football, and some dads like tacoing wheels on rocky downhill mountain bike runs. For that latter group (and any other similarly action-oriented folks of either gender), the VholdR ContourHD is now shipping just in time for Father's Day -- and the summer injury season. The 720p wearable cam was announced back in April and we recently received one for in-house testing. We'll provide our full impressions on it soon, but for now enjoy the thrilling red-light footage after the break captured at last week's Brammo Entertia test ride, or go ahead and pick up your own. MSRP is $299.99, but Amazon's selling them for $20 less and throwing in a $50 gift card to boot -- savings that will do little to offset the cost of fixing your broken clavicle if you don't take it easy on the whoopties.

Pretty awesome but, bad you part is you can see part of your helmet in the picture.

Is that an HD helmet cam in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?

Great, now I can see all the times dad turns his head at a woman running by him.

Hah, that's the TriBeCa area. Greenwich St, West Side Highway.
