If you are someone who loves adventure and hope to take those moments down, there are currently many options. However, X170 from Drift Innovation seems to have the most mountable options for various types of sports. Moreover, it comes with a remote control that you can wear to control the video camera.
There are many types of mount for this camera. I find that the Velcro strap is the most versatile. However, the size seems a little big although the weight is just 128 grams.
One thing good about this rugged video camera is that it runs on AA batteries which you can easily replace and it has a small LCD screen for you t o view the content on SD card.
